I suppose this piece will have been written with tongue only slightly in cheek, but I think that it is something worth considering. When my wife and I planned our next cruise, I had to promise to limit myself to only 6 meals a day. If you have cruised before then you know how much food is available on a cruise. If you have not cruised before, then you will be shocked to find how much food is available on a cruise.

It will be easy to find yourself eating for the entire trip, especially if you are sailing on one of those cruise lines where there is not as much to do, such as Holland America. If you are sailing on Carnival for example, the itinerary might keep you active… Continue reading

Why Americans Fail at Sea

Oct-20-2008 By travel

Why do so few Americans work on cruise ships? Other than entertainers, are there any at all? I worked at sea 4 years on 5 cruise lines, and never encountered more than a handful of Americans on any one ship, despite crew lists in the hundreds and usually over a thousand. So why won’t cruise ships hire Americans?

A hint: I recall an Australian couple who quit after only two days as waiters on a Carnival ship. They were forced to work until the end of the cruise or they would have to pay for their food and cabins. Abandoned in Miami, they had less than 24 hours to leave the U.S. before Homeland Security arrested them. And, really, how many disgruntled Indonesians living in Bali do you hear from? It’s… Continue reading
