Google guy fishing off carnival cruise ship🤣
@@madmeco I know. Back to News tomorrow
It wouldn’t be a Jay production without hearing the word “giblets”. Well done!
Always! Thanks!
Lol true
Good on Virgin for giving everyone a free cruise, that is a good way to make up for a horrible first day.
Yes, I agree, the crew should step aside and allow the guest to enjoy the show, because the guest did pay to see the performance. Looking forward to the sailing in Greece!!!! As always, thanks for sharing! 🛳️🛳️
I'm glad you guys still had a great time despite the tragic event. It's also good to hear how well Virgin handled the situation. That's a terrible situation in any regard, and it is good to see they handled it so professionally.
Yes.Crew should step aside or stand out of the way for Cruisers. That would have bugged the piss out of me. ✌🏼
I also agree that crew should step aside. Yes they should allowed to see the shows but they should be stepping back and allowing the Sailors a better view
I agree with your statements regarding the crew watching shows. They have every right to see them. But let the paying customers go first. If I had paid 10K (or more) for my cruise and I had a crew member blocking my view I'd be finding someone to complain to. Lauren is adorable dancing!!! You guys had a fantastic time on that cruise!! Especially given the circumstances. Ive never been on a Virgin cruise, but I'm going to look into it thanks to you. But I agree, they went way above and beyond to make up for the circumstances. None of it was Virgins fault, so its quite nice of them to do that. I love the idea of an adults only cruise! Watch out for the pineapples!!!
Also doesn’t the crew… go on multiple cruises? The guests it may be their only cruise for years.
About to head out on my third cruise. This will be the first one I've taken since I started watching your channel, and I feel like I'm going into it much more knowledgeable about so many parts of the while experience. I might not cruise the same ships you do (well, yet!) but you've given us so much insight, a peek behind the curtain you might say, that really improves the whole trip overall. Thanks, Jay!
It was my first cruise with wife and we love it. We have the best relaxing vacation ever. Virgin went above and beyond. On my end I don’t have any complaints.
Right on Jay. The crew can watch the show HOWEVER they need to make way for the guest to have the best view since they paid thousands of dollars to be on the cruise. Good review. Condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.
You’re videos are by far the best cruise videos!!!! We want to cruise with y’all!!
Wow… That really means a lot to hear. Seriously thank you so much! I’m sure you’ll catch me on a Cruise at some point since I’m always traveling⚓️
I love how fair you are in your assessments. You aren’t afraid to criticize, but you make an effort to specify what things aren’t the faults of the cruise line.
Hi Jay, thank you so much for keeping us informed of situations like this, condolences to the sailor’s family. I’m taking my first cruise in 5 years in August and have booked Virgin’s Scarlet Lady; these videos make me even more excited to be sailing again! 😊
I hope you have a phenomenal time! Enjoy!
I also prefer the taste of seafood hot instead of cold. Like clam chowder.
RIP to the woman who unalived herself :( I pray she is at peace now.
They should have a set area for the crew to watch the show on the last night!
So incredibly sad! My sincerest condolences to the family 😭
The crew should definitely give the customers priority after all it is their job they can see the shows if they want to but I'm sure they could stand further back and they would probably have the chance to see it again at another time
I’d really like to see Virgin offer more single cabins.
I'm going on my first Virgin cruise in July. Great to hear that you're still enjoying Virgin after the mishap. I can't wait!!!
I was on this cruise. Also saw you there. The person that died on the first night was right below our balcony. Heard the thud. Our first cruise nonetheless.
Me and my girlfriend are cruising the Scarlet lady in 2 weeks and I cannot wait!
Jay, thanks for all the info. You are the absolute best!👏🏾
Had an amazing time at my Virgin Scarlet Lady cruise to Cozumel ! Booked again for December not even a week later😅 thank you Uplift‼️
Really glad you enjoyed the cruise despite a sour start - what a terrible situation for Virgin to navigate through. I’ve actually never (touch wood) been on a ship where such an incident has happened while I’ve been onboard - long may that continue.
Great video!
I live across the bridge from Tampa and I cruise quite a bit (not as much as you) there is no "quick way" to Miami from here but I have found some not so bad alternatives...
1. Rent a car one way to miami - drop off away from right at the nearest to the terminal and just uber in or take car shuttle over then on return take amtrack back to tampa.
2. Take train the day prior to cruise (due to train schedule) stay at a hotel then shuttle to port - return on train
note with brightline coming online soon out of orlando new options will become available
3. There are several bus/shuttle services from tampa to all the ports.
all of those items are just about convenience - the cheapest is the bus/shuttle, my favorite is the train (it has a bar)
This is just based on my experience your results/opinion may differ.
I'm glad you still had a good cruise, despite the unfortunate tragedy that occurred. I'm torn about the crew enjoying shows because allowing the crew "guest privileges" is one of the reasons I loved Virgin so much, I got to know the crew members onboard and it made my cruise really special. It's a double edge sword, because the crew is so good at hyping up the crowd and encouraging participation, even if they're not "working", so it's a shame to require them to skip shows or stay in the back, but as you said, it's important to maintain a good guest experience.
That video gave me a smile. Looks like a lot of fun on Virgin but way out of my priceline. Well tbh all of the cruises are more than I can afford on a disability check but I suppose I am living vicariously through you. Thanks J. Please keep the videos coming.
That is so sad. Glad that Virgin was transparent and kept everyone informed.
LMFAO 🤣 at 10:57 “on drugs to see, preferably mushrooms 🍄” made my night Justin, made my night! But all jokes aside, you’re assessment is spot on to Morgan from Very Unofficial Travel Guide’s of VV & he is also a former professional theatre entertainer who was like huh?!?!? at VV’s attempt at story lines lol 😂
When you come Barbados please check out Rhianna drive
It’s not about looking down on the crew but passengers should get priority they are paying. It’s great for crew to be able to mix but there does need to be rules.
I can’t wait for your vlog for the Resilient Lady “Greek Glow”. I booked this Cruise August last year for the October 1st sail. I figured it would be a great time to go, new ship, all the kinks will be worked out by then, the main summer season is basically done so less crowds in each port but still hopefully warm enough. I have been waiting almost a year (and none to patiently 😊) for a vlog of my cruise so really looking forward to it.
Another great video brougham. I just got off of the carnival dream (Monday) and it was my first cruise. Did the eastern Caribbean and had a blast. Unfortunately I also got Covid 😂😂… so I’m typing this jacked up BUTTTTTTTTTTTT that doesn’t take away the blast that I had onboard. Everyone I spoke to was either a firefighter, paramedic or nurse and me being a paramedic it was hilarious that I couldn’t walk 5 feet without tripping over a fellow brother or sister. I had so many great conversations and a few heart to heart conversations that I will remember for the rest of my life. I made some serious connections with some people. Going on another cruise on the miracle to Alaska in august… hopefully minus the damn confeefee 😂. We also had a few medical emergencies… we had a few rocky days in the Gulf of Mexico. Crazy storms, someone had some heart issues and we had to divert from half moon cay to go to princess cay but when we got there had to cancel because the medivac couldn’t land due to weather and we had to steam on to Nassau and hope the person made it through the night. Thank god they did and as we were getting off the ship paramedics were taking them off via ambulance at the docks. On the way back we had flooding on the ship because of hurricane type weather causing the ship to list some and the captain had to ban people from going out on deck while the crew set up fans and tried to keep the floors dried but people still fell and a few hit their heads that a few of us helped to sickbay. I swear we can’t escape work 😂.
I hear that the crew often jump in front of guests. They will hold up,the pizza line ordering 10+ pizzas. It seems like they should have another way to order pizza.
After seeing several videos of Virgin cruiseline literally nothing about it seems appealing except no kids.
trio names: the three jays, tres jays, the three jaymigos, jota cubed
I love it! Thanks!
Justin I love the chemistry you and Jojo have ❤. I’m a long time subscriber and I have been secretly binge watching both of your VV vlogs as of late and I’ve never sailed VV but I’ve recently booked 2 VV sailings on Scarlet and Valiant and both you and JoJo are really getting me excited! Thank you for all that you do! Love ❤️ you!
The food looks great on Virgin! I agree with you ie. steamed or simmered lobster! I don't like to compete for my food ie. restaurants being all booked! I really liked my dining experience on HAL last year! I am hoping for a repeat this year!
I really appreciate you and your comments. When I see u we doing a shot my guy
The feeling is mutual. The second shot is on me!
That's so sad I hope it got better
My personal opinion from a construction worker side of this is that I wait for people to make eye contact before I do absolutely anything! I’m the grandmaster of aerial lifts!
Omg I already booked my flight for the day off travel so I guess I’ll call tomorrow and see if I can change it
Yes, the crew needs to give way to the guests.
How did you find out that it was a suicide? I was on that cruise as well and this is the first that I’ve heard exactly what had happened. Great video though, I pretty much feel the same way you did about it. We loved everything about it and can’t wait to go again in November. Nice job!!
yeah, i heard from staff it was an accident with a young woman taking a selfie while taking or filming a selfie.
The Korean Barbecue was terrible. They can put a seafood restaurant in its place. Hated the shows, not enough to do during the day either.
100% agree. Paying customers should get prime seating.
I'm surprised deaths on cruises aren't more frequent. Accidental deaths, that is, not intentional ones (murders?) like happened on this cruise, but I would figure if you mix alcohol, vacation, sun and fun, and high balconies, you'd have more people doing crazy things that end poorly for them. Maybe I just don't have enough faith in the human race :)
As for the crew watching the show, it's one thing to watch the show, it's another to be so in the way that you block other people's view. Crew or not, people should make an effort to ensure everyone gets a good view of the show, but *especially* the crew, since they'll have plenty of other opportunities to watch the shows (and will probably eventually get sick of them).
I'm going to do the NEWEST Virgin Ship in 2023. Never been yet but the reviews on FOOD & NO KIDS is good to me.
Can't wait to hear you report on the passengers that were banned from Carnival after they were caught fishing from the ship.
Could people show what the medical centers on these ships, what can they do onboard for emergency department?
As with any business, paying customers should always come first!!
I’m going on virgin out of Barcelona in July and I can’t wait! Thx for the video!
You’ll love it! Enjoy!
Very informative. Keep up the good work! Gracias
Had to subscribe, cause I be looking for good cruises but I feel like this one might be it for me
I want to try Virgin. Should I book directly or use a travel agent?
The Shiplife, I was on Carnival Celebration at the same time, we received the information of what happened. Had I known we were in the same place I would have liked to meet you. I enjoy all of your videos.
9:47 So *this* is where Domino's got the idea!
Funny. LA to Puerto Rico on time and actually early. Miami to Puerto Rico everyone was an hour late. Atlanta to Puerto Rico kinda on time but dock runners. Being late is a Bozo no no but Capt held the ship. We were only going to St Thomas so no biggie
Bro, you are absolutely right when ot comes to the shows. Patrons pay money for these events. So the crew should make way to the patrons.
No kids! Sign me up🤣
As someone who worked in entertainment too, I agree that the staff should always let guests take priority to see shows. They shouldn't have been standing right in the front! Especially at that type of show.
I’ll see you in Greece!
Seafood can go very bad very fast. Just hours is enough. I'm sure you know this. Not a huge issue to place it in a refrigerated cabinet but the risk is not worth the weight of 100s getting sick. Easier to place it during the rush.
Dude, the train is a good daytime option from Tampa to Lauderdale or Miami
You are right. Guests should have first choice.
You should try one of those atlantis cruises all gay, so you can give a review, your comments are the best and more smart on the web
Bro is living his best life 🤣
Heard any news about Brilliant Lady? Is it on schedule for Dec 24. We are on that sailing and it’s the inaugural and just curious if ship is on schedule
J-cubed!! Squared is "2". HA! Good for you!
Well I think if you pay to see shows and if crew hijack the view and participation options I wouldn’t be happy. Nice crew can watch the show. No problem there and if they participate in the peripheral area no problem and if the passengers are sluggish in participating the crew visitors might start participating. But if crew kind of take over and make more about them. I wouldn’t approve. I think I would walk out.
So, when you say the DJ's need to "Come with It" especially if sailing out of Miami, what type of music are you referring to?
Definitely seems a bit unfair for the crew to get the best seats for the shows. The people in the back that can't see paid thousands to be there
😢 In memorium
I can understand why the crew would want to experience everything the paying guests do. However as nice as it is that they can participate I have to assume this was not their first or last chance to do so. The paying guests however only get one chance. Just my opinion.
Love your content! Is that Millie I see at 12:32?
I agree that the crew should let the guests up front. I like that they are given guest privileges but since the guests are paying for the experience they should be able to be up front. I will have to consider Virgin for my 50th bday cruise in 2025, I want to do a Mediterranean cruise. Im taking my 1st Virgin cruise in August of 2024.
I probably will get hassled for asking this but is Virgin handicapped ♿️ friendly.
5:07 J cubed
13:48 "Should the crew...give way to the guests?" In one word: yes. I think the correct balance here is that if crew is going to have guest privileges, they should have a separate, dedicated viewing area for something like this. Mainly for some of the reasons you just gave: The "sailors" paid for the experience and should be able to get a close as desired in a free-form venue like this. I have nothing against the crew getting to see the show, but I think they should have a dedicated area in the venue so they aren't preventing the passengers view.
Moral of my story is get the F out the way until your needed!
Amazing vlog!!!!!
Do you think that cruise ship should have under cover security on the ship so that issues that you is talking will not happen
Guests come first
Hey, love your channel! How do I get a job like that! 😅
Jay
Have you ever visited the Bridgetown port in Barbados?
do a lesser antillies cruise
Wait, were you on the Costa Maya on Scarlet Lady (mar 26-31)?? I was on that and saw a hat exactly like yours and was wondering if that was you.
How about the J-Cubed
Don't unalive yourself on my cruise that's so inconvenient for me and other guest onboard do that shit somewhere else
Crew needs to stand in the rear.
If I had paid all that money and crew members were blocking my view of any of the entertainment I would not be a happy camper and the Captain would know about it.
Shameless plug 😏ok
😅
It is sad the man chose to use the cruise for exit. Obviously that was meant to get attention in the media. Maybe they had an issue with Virgin. Glad people moved on.
I would be pissed if I paid a few grand. Then to have employees standing in front of me. Zero class. Won’t be taking a Virgin cruise anytime
I think cruise ship 🚢 employees need a little time to relax but Virgin allowing workers to block the view and take prime locations for shows is a deal breaker for me and a good reason to avoid sailing on Virgin. I like the way Norwegian always puts the comfort and satisfaction of paying guests #1.
But you spoke about this 2 weeks ago
This is a full breakdown of the entire cruise. I do this after every cruise has concluded on this channel
It's inevitable that EVERY cruise ship suffers a death aboard, often enough it's a "man overboard" situation. This was Valiant Lady's first, and we hope last, unprofitable cruise.
I've heard a couple things about Adult cruises ...
First is to bring with you double the number of condoms you think you'll need. Because the ship ships routinely sell out and when in stock they are double mainland prices.
Secondly...its becoming tradition that after the first one is used it is tossed overboard in the middle of the night in violation of every rule there is.
We think it may have been fake.
We caught a Mahi recently and it was moving around and fighting.
In this video that looked like a dead fish or a plastic one.
Fish aren't limp when they get caught.
