Love this. The last two guys tour was so fun! He said he spent 600-700 on the decor, and he was answering all our burning questions without you asking 😂😂😂
Now move away from the staff level cabins to the crew cabins where there are four to a room not much bigger than this with roommates who work longer hours.
That was excellent and really funny. When I was gift shop manager I had my own cabin, but no porthole. I was happy for the extra space and privacy. It’s very different from living in the real world back on land. Keep up the great content Krista✌️
Some people have partners back home. But with the exception of cast singers/dancers contracts tend to be six months long with an unpaid vacation of four to eight weeks. It's very difficult to maintain relationships when you are gone for ten or more months of the years. There are couples who do contracts together. But often even they have different start and end dates on their contracts depending on their jobs. It is very common for cruise ship relations to be understood to be during the duration of their contract while they over lap. Which is to say that you could be dating someone and it is understood that once either of your contracts is completed your relationship is finished. If you run into each other later on a future contract on a different ship you pretend like you never knew each other before. Then there are "pillows" Pillows are people that you hook up with quite casually. Some people like one nice pillow. Others want to cover the entire bedroom with pillows or swap them out regularly. Yes, sometimes a cruise ship relationship leads to an STI or pregnancy. Pregnancy pretty much ends your contract. They don't provide prenatal care for crew on ships. There is also a class structure on cruise ships. You don't want to date too far down on a cruise ship. Activity staff and dancers have been known to try to date up. If you date an actual ship's operations officer you get access to greater privileges and accommodations. If a dancer is dating up their bunk might be open which allows a dancer who otherwise wouldn't be entitle to a private cabin to live alone. From time to time the cruise director or activity manager might ask people to verify where they really live. It's a safety requirement to find you in an emergency. You might bunk with your partner and your assigned roommate now can bunk with their partner. Sort of some berth swapping. Singers and dance captains get their own single berth on many cruise lines. A production manager, theatre manager or broadcast manager can get their own berth. If a theatre manager and a production manager are a couple they can pretty much rent out the spare single berth like a crew AirBnb for funky times. Well that's the way it was back in the day. There is a what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas attitude on ships. Which lends itself to some "experimentation". Maybe you weren't out or identify as gay back home......the sea has no memory. It doesn't necessarily follow you home. Experimentation happens.
Hi Krista. I enjoy your videos. I am leaving on Tuesday for a cruise on the MSC Meraviglia. We met a worker on our last cruise (MSC Seaside), and she is working on the Meraviglia. We would like to bring her stuff. So far, we have Tide Pods, toothpaste, and various snacks. She is expecting us, and asked her if she needed anything, and she said no. I understand that your cabins are small, and was wondering if you have suggestions of what she would probaly need, since you seem quite seasoned at your job. I'll appreciate your input, if you have time. My wife and I enjoy watching your videos, and have learned much about what happens in the botoom of the ship. Truly appreciate the work that you put in doing theses videos, It takes time, and dedication to keep the material coming. Have a great week, regards.
Oh wow that is so cool and kind of you to bring her stuff!!! Snacks are always great to have. For me, I can never have enough magnets since the walls are all magnetic!
@@rogermaillet3495 That's awesome! The head waiter we had on Wonder OTS in January just HAPPENED to be on Liberty OTS when we were on last month. It was even better that she saw us and called us out by our names! Finally connected with them on Insta!
Overall, how have you found the audition processes at different cruise lines for singer and singer/dancers? Which cruise line was easiest or best for a beginner singer/dancer or singer?
Hi Krista =) I'm a musician, I've applied to a few agencies. I like following the channel! Just curious, you don't have access to the guest restaurant?
Love your videos! I just discovered your channel, new sub :) Question, was it hard to get a room with your significant other? Do you need to be married to be placed in the same room? Thanks!
On Royal ships you have to be married or have some documentation like a lease together to prove you’re together. But on other cruise lines they’ve let us live together with no paperwork!
Love this. The last two guys tour was so fun! He said he spent 600-700 on the decor, and he was answering all our burning questions without you asking 😂😂😂
The guys were cracking me up at the end. Its so nice to see how everyone decorates. It reminds me of dorms in college and seeing everyone's style
It’s so similar to college dorms! 😅
Omg, I busted out laughing when Alexandra said "he who must not be named". I feel the same way about my ex too lol.
HAHAHA 😅 right lol
Love this one! So much fun! Thanks for letting us see different cabins!
Thanks for watching! 🤗
Although tight, this looks like so much fun to live in, almost like it’s back in college
Definitely reminds me of college at times😅
Now move away from the staff level cabins to the crew cabins where there are four to a room not much bigger than this with roommates who work longer hours.
Poor Murray, Andrew took over the whole tour!
It’s a tough life
Looks like he took over decorating also

“Husbands, wives back home”… c’mon Krista give us the real goss…! You know what everyone is wondering
😉🤷🏻♀️

@@krista.jocelyn , Thank You for your reponse. We kept in contact with Ysabela from our 2019 cruise. What are the odds that we would meet again.
@@rogermaillet3495 That's awesome! The head waiter we had on Wonder OTS in January just HAPPENED to be on Liberty OTS when we were on last month. It was even better that she saw us and called us out by our names! Finally connected with them on Insta!
awesome video, so informative and interesting :)
Thank you! 🤗
This was amazing
thank you! :)
Love your videos and editing is great!!! What is your favorite port and where is the best food? Health and happiness 🫶
Thank you so much!! Ooh I think my favorite port is either Rome or Zakinthos! The best food is probably Rome!!
Overall, how have you found the audition processes at different cruise lines for singer and singer/dancers? Which cruise line was easiest or best for a beginner singer/dancer or singer?
Just found you, love the vids! 😍
Thank you so much! 🤗
Are people bringing the decorations with them or purchasing after they have arrived on board?
A bit of both but I usually get them when I’m onboard so I don’t have to pack them!
When is time to sign off do they donate their items they decorated their rooms with? Or throw them away?
We usually leave them for the next cast!
Hi Krista =) I'm a musician, I've applied to a few agencies. I like following the channel! Just curious, you don't have access to the guest restaurant?
Thanks for watching! And We do!
Thanks for the reply! I loved the Brazilian meme at 12:19, her name is Renata Sorrah. See you soon =)
Wouldn’t you have more space if you had a bunk bed? Can couples get bunk beds if they want to?
Yeah you could I suppose!
Is there any vacancy right now over ther .. for GSA
Can passengers give crew alcohol? Like a bottle of wine as a gift?
Mmm you know I’m not sure. I kinda don’t think so 🤔
@@krista.jocelyn I guess the best we can do is having dinner with the crew and sharing a bottle with them at dinner…
which department you work
Love your videos! I just discovered your channel, new sub :) Question, was it hard to get a room with your significant other? Do you need to be married to be placed in the same room? Thanks!

💜🙏
Do people cheat and have things not allowed in the cabin? I’m not looking for details to get you or them in trouble.
Definitely 😅
Wat happens if yur department has an uneven # of males... will they just put you alone or put you with a dude from outside your dept?
You’ll probably be with someone random!
No way would I spend that much money to decorate
I wish that I could be fabulous like those friends (sorry I cannot remember their names)!
I am just a plain old boring gay man.
700 dollar budget 😅😅
Super realistic 😅🫠
Ridiculous
Aaww!! Miss Andrew! He was one of the first people I met outside of my area when I started on Brilliance🥺🫶🏼 ps. He should totally do Yt aswell haha
