That’s what I was thinking. It’s kind of ironic that the person who gets the least down time gets the most space They totally deserve it though with how much they work!
@@NickSmith-fe7lp yeah I think the point is because they have a crazy amount of work they’re given the nicest room so they can enjoy any little downtime they have
i was thinking that...like when r they IN the CABIN...the ones on our cruises seem to ALWAYS be introducing and ending EVERY show... they r running all over the ship checking on and encouraging staff and guest...maybe the extra room is to have meetings w their staff? All i know is i think they earn the cabin space but do not get to enjoy it...
In July of 2010 my husband and I took our first cruise! (Honeymoon) RC Freedom of the Seas, that cruise director was GOLDEN. Honestly he MADE that cruise feel like a party. We were so sad to see him go and every cruise since then has never had a cruise director like him! Ugh! Miss it!!
@@oturanfishcake I am not saying they shouldn’t. I just didnt expect that. Normally the crew quarters are very small from what I’ve seen and a lot of them have to share rooms and a washroom with the cabin beside them. So like a lot of them have to share a washroom between 4 crew members. And also I heard, I don’t know if its true or not, but the crew like the waiters and room cleaners don’t even get a paycheque, their payment is the gratuity like what the guests tip them at the end of the trip
@@iCazZiStronZiit’s not true. If it was the case, it would be slavery. They do get a low pay check though, so the tips are important and play a big part on their income
@mikehunt221 The Art program is a vendor just like the onboard shops or casino. The art program maintains the dedicated onboard art gallery and holds gallery hours daily. Typically auctioneers will also host 1-2 hour seminars on sea days on different art topics. The most well known event the Art Director holds are the at sea auctions. Typically every sea day there will be an art auction that will last about 3 hours with a 2-3 hour "preview" before hand where guests can come view the art and inquire if they are interested in purchasing any. Lastly, we build relationships with the passengers and hang out with them during their cruise at cruise events, dinner, shows and bars. On Port days we're off having fun!

the cabin with the folding upper bunk usually. accountants and some pursers are also considered officers but they share (option 2) as well. depends on your seniority and on what is available as far as the cabins assigned to your department.
Makes me think of staterooms on my ship lol! I work/live on an aircraft carrier and for the enlisted berthings it can be from like 30 racks (bunks stacked 3 high) to like 300 racks! The staterooms are for the officers and can be from 1 to 6 racks, and the CO and XO have their own spaces like the director's cabin, but the CO has a much bigger space. Also, the CO has an "in port" cabin and an "at sea" cabin lol.
I worked on a cruise ship two different times. I was lucky enough to get my own room both times as a entertainer. Came in very handy because being American these women working on the ship throw themselves at you.
I always had a single dorm in college and looking back I wish I had a roommate then because I feel like as an only child and then having had a single dorm in college I’ll never have that experience of having shared a room with another person who isn’t my romantic partner. And i feel like it’s probably a good experience to have / a good exercise in empathy, patience, and tolerance! But as an American I haven’t really figured out how to crack the code of applying for these jobs since they seem to mostly only be available to people from other countries when I browse for the job listings for things I’d be qualified to do (which isn’t much haha). My background is in film and television production, mostly experience working on set in the production department, so I think being able to make call sheets and stuff would be a transferable skill to making the daily agenda or doing something audio / video related with my technical skills or making highlight reels or something to show the passengers with my video editing skills…. Any idea what job on a ship I’d be qualified for? I dream of a life at sea, even if it makes no money! 🚢⚓️ I have a rent controlled apartment in LA that’s less than half of market value that I’d love to rent out and just get on a ship and see where life takes me!
That would be reason number 1 I'd never want to work on a cruiseship. I appreciate having my own bedroom/bathroom/kitchen. If I don't feel like seeing people for a few days I don't ever need to leave my flat.
Some of us just can't be around people that often. When I was in school and later the army, I'd be catching naps as often as I could, whenever and wherever I could get a few minutes alone.
You just ask them. As a musician, you're in the same department. You work with them over the course of months and see them every day. The cruise director on my last ship had some sick cabin party's.
Wondering on where I would apply in getting a job to work for a cruise ship company. I’m from western Kentucky but never been on a cruise ship period. Tips/Advice on applying for a job?
Well, after i recently watched a video of junior enlisted quarters on navy ships, even the double bunks here look gigantic. So much space, so few roomies. So much privacy. XD perspective matters so much.
dont be scared! it’s so much fun. sometimes you’ll forget your even in the middle of the ocean LOL! Also, there’s lifeboats, life rafts, and SOOO much more safety equipment! you’ll have the best time of your life, trust
i went to alaskan cruise in May via Norwegian, I had a great time! some people have that anti nausea patch if you have severe sea sickness but for me I didn’t need any. I would recommend
There is nothing to be scared of. I’ve been on 5 cruises and I have enjoyed all of them. Cruise ships are way safer than driving, there is nothing to worry about
Do you know before you board which type of room you will have? Do you get a choice of room or is it based on your job/rank (not the cruise directors of course)?
What are the medical crew rooms like? I'm looking at nursing positions and it does state we get single rooms with an ensuite so is that the solo rooms?
Those cabins are usually 3 Stripes. The Hotel Director and Captain have the Best ones. The captain has a living room with a balcony along with a dinning room and a small kitchen.
I'm not interested in going out to sea in a cruise ship but the food looks great so if the cruise ship ever has a layover for a few months then I paid for the cruise going nowhere
It would be for me, personally, yes. WORST would be to have a room mate who wants to be all social with me, and works the same shifts as I do. Better would be to have someone willing to just do his/her own thing and leave me to do mine. Better than that would be to have a room mate who works a different shift than I do. But I think that a line that cared would make the effort to pair people who work different shifts. And all those would just be luck of the draw... I wouldn't mind sharing a bath room, so long as they cleaned up after themselves....
I find that crew members need an own space and not shared. You guys work a lot, and live intern. Crew quality is key in this kind of work spaces. Take good care of the crew, so the crew is taking a little more effort on the workplace
I’ll be getting that cruise director cabin soon… like 5 years.
Heck ya
Yo this dude must be rich to be on that cruise ship for that long 😂😂
@@BryanJamesCruises, what about the Mates/Engineers?
@@alexrivas1993huh? He works on the ship
@@alexrivas1993smooth brain moment
I want to see the Captain’s!
Captains quarters must surely be the ultimate room though
It's a whole apartment on those ships
They probably sell tickets for the nicest rooms, but idunno
@@josh6706These are CREW cabins
@@josh6706the captain usually has a big apartment like room next to the bridge
I was going to ask about the captain's.
Always enjoy the content man enjoyed meeting you! Hope to see you again one day on another ship!
Thanks so much! And thanks for the shout-out in your video!
I have never seen a cruise Director able to sit down or work less than an 16 hour day.
That’s what I was thinking. It’s kind of ironic that the person who gets the least down time gets the most space
They totally deserve it though with how much they work!

@@NickSmith-fe7lprealistically they do get down time tho, more than you’d think
Love the cruise director's port hole bedroom. Especially if it rains ... Mint!!
Love these. Thanks for the tours. Very Interesting!
I want to see all the ships officers quarters!
Neat to see the different cabins. Thanks for the tour!!

Dang who needs a director when they got you.
The cruise director gets a better cabin than most of the passengers
just spent two weeks on Oceania. Can confirm. Cruise Director is pretty sweet. Not where I stayed, but comparison: that suite is nice and roomy.
As they should. They rarely even get a day off

@@Assefinho1 ah ok thank you, I wasn’t sure if that was true or not
Do you get to pick or do they just assign you to a rm
They assign you to a room based on your position. It all varies depending on the company and the ship.
In previous videos, this guy said he was assigned new rooms, so I believe there's an amount of room rotation
Was an Art Director on Regent for a long time - 700 sq ft passenger balcony cabins with a walk in closet and living room. It was the absolute tits!
What an Art Director do on a cruise ship? Make sure all the art and decor is up to spec?
@@alaska79I’m really curious too

What kind of cabin does an officer (nurse) typically get?
Love these vid by the way!

Love these Cruise Chronicles!! Its awesome seeing behind the scenes!
Awesome content! Keep it coming!
Thanks for the info... I enjoy your content
I would NEVER get on a ship with that many decks! Too many passengers on board, too!
I worked on a cruise ship two different times. I was lucky enough to get my own room both times as a entertainer. Came in very handy because being American these women working on the ship throw themselves at you.
😂😂😂
You should try to get a tour of the captains cabin!
Thanks for the room tour. From your cruise ship. It's interesting.
love the videos! so interesting!
Ty for always taking your time for us ❤
I got married on the allure August 14th 2023. Wonderful ship and staff
Congrats,
Congratulations.
Wish y’all the best! :)
Thanks for what you do but I could NEVER do it
Sick bro I never been on a cruise , your info is great
Thanks for sharing!!😊
Disney princesses are probably 4 to a room on a Disney cruise. 😂
A room? Nah they toss them in the same place as where they store food 😂.
Can you get the officers quarters? I’m interested what the chief engineers and the captain looks like.
I always had a single dorm in college and looking back I wish I had a roommate then because I feel like as an only child and then having had a single dorm in college I’ll never have that experience of having shared a room with another person who isn’t my romantic partner.

After Growing up on container ships, makes these cabins look so small
Wouldve loved to see captains quarters :)
I’ve been on that ship and it was the best time ever.
That aqua show was nice.
Is a bunk buddy the same as a FB? Asking for a friend?
That would be reason number 1 I'd never want to work on a cruiseship. I appreciate having my own bedroom/bathroom/kitchen. If I don't feel like seeing people for a few days I don't ever need to leave my flat.

Would love to see the Captains room. 🤯
Hopefully cruises are as fun as it looks
But they look horrendous
Can you show where the medical staff stays?
They stay in the life boats with the seagulls
@@MaouVallkurlmao
The doctors got director cabins and the nurses got single cabins
@@MaouVallkurLol
the jail room
Thank you 😊 🎉
So are you a part of the marketing department at Royal? Howd you gain access to a cruise director cabin?
You just ask them. As a musician, you're in the same department. You work with them over the course of months and see them every day. The cruise director on my last ship had some sick cabin party's.
Gotta chrck out the captain's quarters, dats a real room 😅😊
Omg will you be on allure in Nov??
Hope you get to work on Icon or Utopia and we get to see you again!
That'd be incredible!
Thanks for sharing
How about the casino director ? 😊
He didn't show the numerous rooms for four Crew members. In combunation with the wages clase to exploitation
Show us the rooms where the waiters, cleaners etc stay. You know the ones from the Philippines, Indonesia, India etc
That captains room near the bridge has to be the best imo
I feel like there’s no way every single cabin is sold on a cruise. So if there are unbooked guest cabins can the workers not stay in those?
But then .who would get it? People would get jealous
On our cruise, the cruise Director was like the coolest person
What about the captains room how big is that
ruclips.net/video/SrL3oZx-bPo/видео.html
I never met a cruise director who deserves that cabin!
Definitely the window is the best part ❤
Wooow just waking up and see the ocean ❤
Wondering on where I would apply in getting a job to work for a cruise ship company. I’m from western Kentucky but never been on a cruise ship period. Tips/Advice on applying for a job?
So hooking up with the CD has its perks?
Well, after i recently watched a video of junior enlisted quarters on navy ships, even the double bunks here look gigantic. So much space, so few roomies. So much privacy. XD perspective matters so much.
In camp we have the same thing as a single share, we call em jack & jill
What cabins do chefs usually stay in?
Love ur vids btw keep it up💯🎉
Chefs are the lower class workers unfortunately, so they’d be in the shared or single share
They'll be in the bunk cabin! Or if they've been with the company over five years they can apply for the single share room that shares a bathroom
As soon as you get Sous Chef and above you will get a personal cabin
How do you know what you’ll get, before you apply? Or is it just too bad, and you get what you’re given once you turn up to work?
What about the royal suite???
I always wanted to go on a cruise but so scared.
dont be scared! it’s so much fun. sometimes you’ll forget your even in the middle of the ocean LOL! Also, there’s lifeboats, life rafts, and SOOO much more safety equipment! you’ll have the best time of your life, trust

Oh! Terraforming Mars box spotted, actual banger of a board game.
Do you know before you board which type of room you will have? Do you get a choice of room or is it based on your job/rank (not the cruise directors of course)?
There's no choice. It depends on your position.
What kind of engineering/ maintenance jobs are there on a cruise ship and what qualifications/ education would I need to do them?
For the stacked racks, all they are missing is a lift up divided space below for smalls and civilian wear. They are called Hampton style racks.
I wonder what the captains cabin looks like. Does anyone know if he has a video of that yet?
ruclips.net/video/SrL3oZx-bPo/видео.html
You should see the oasis class captains cabin, thats the best crew cabin (obviously)
Allure is such a great ship.
What are the medical crew rooms like? I'm looking at nursing positions and it does state we get single rooms with an ensuite so is that the solo rooms?
Cruise directors room is like a 89 dollar a night room at super 8
What’s your vote for best RC ship?? Appreciate your content!
Thank you .
I had the double, its wasnt bad but I would love the cruise director cabin. The captain is way better is an apartment
I'd wonder what the cabins for the ship's doctors are.
How often are you in your room though. Basically only to sleep
How many directors are there ? And what does the captains cabin look like? 3,000 square feet palace?
Is the captains room the same as the directors
Yo, how much would I make starting out on a cruise ship??
Where do you stay if you work with your husband or wife?
Do nurses get their own cabin or a shared room?
What cabins do the jr officers get?
😅 my favorite is the ITO's room.
Canival spender is the cruise that is the best and how do I know because I've been on that cruise
The last room is wow
Those cabins are usually 3 Stripes. The Hotel Director and Captain have the Best ones. The captain has a living room with a balcony along with a dinning room and a small kitchen.
Ok but how often do you guys hook up
You would think that workers accommodations would be more livable
You should see the captains cabin or the first officer
Think the bunk ones should be bigger space for 3 pax
I'm not interested in going out to sea in a cruise ship but the food looks great so if the cruise ship ever has a layover for a few months then I paid for the cruise going nowhere
I wonder what the First Mate's room looks like?
Does the solo cabins have their own toilet and not a shared one
so the worst one is the bunk one
It would be for me, personally, yes. WORST would be to have a room mate who wants to be all social with me, and works the same shifts as I do. Better would be to have someone willing to just do his/her own thing and leave me to do mine. Better than that would be to have a room mate who works a different shift than I do. But I think that a line that cared would make the effort to pair people who work different shifts.
And all those would just be luck of the draw...
I wouldn't mind sharing a bath room, so long as they cleaned up after themselves....
100%...Especially if you have a stinky roommate. I had one that farted all night long.
How do I get a cruise ship job? Seems like it would be awesome.
You didn't show the last bathroom
