Creator's Key Takeaways

as a crew member you're probably going to be spending six to ten months onboard a cruise ship

when you start working on a cruise ship you immediately become the company's responsibility so this means that the company is going to pay for any medical care you require

if you throw up or get diarrhea at any point you are to go directly to your cabin and call 999 which is the medical team on board

i've been confined to cabin twice in my life when i was really ill and they were honestly the worst times of my life

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Call medical team immediately if you have vomiting or diarrhea

✓Keep a hard drive full of movies for cabin confinement

✓Get health insurance if you plan adventure activities in port
