Editorial Summary

Crew member Chris Wong documents his experience beginning a new contract on the Ovation of the Seas in Seattle. After signing on, he moves into a guest stateroom to begin a mandatory quarantine period. He provides a tour of the cabin, noting the amenities provided by Royal Caribbean, such as snacks and coffee. During the initial hard quarantine phase, he remains in his room, receiving room service for all meals. He describes the process of receiving multiple breakfast orders due to a service confusion and shares his observations of the Seattle scenery from his balcony. Wong explains that because the ship is currently operating without passengers as a startup team, crew members are being housed in guest cabins. As the week progresses, he details his daily routine, which includes completing mandatory online training and performing workouts with resistance bands to pass the time. He concludes by explaining the transition from hard quarantine to soft quarantine, where crew members are permitted to leave their cabins only for work, before eventually moving into standard crew accommodations.
