Which job on a cruise ship will give you the most time off?
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator identifies three specific roles on a cruise ship that offer significant amounts of time off during port calls. The first role mentioned is working in the onboard shops. The creator explains that shop employees typically only work while the ship is at sea, often starting in the late afternoon or evening after the ship has docked. The second recommendation is working in the casino. Similar to the retail staff, casino employees generally only work when the vessel is at sea, allowing them to have most of the day free while the ship is in port. Finally, the creator discusses the art department. While art can be sold while the ship is docked, the department is often quiet because passengers are away exploring. Consequently, the art department frequently closes during the day, providing staff with opportunities to visit ports. The video concludes by summarizing these three positions as the best options for crew members seeking more leisure time.
