    I know on a Panama Canal cruise they opened up the "crew only" deck for passengers/guests because people would park themselves in all the other good vantage points and never move.
    It's nice to see a cafe/library area for crew on some ships! I like to read on cruises and will usually go through 2 or 3 books on a longer cruise ... now that they've phased out a lot of guest libraries on ships, I'll ask a crew member on future cruises if they have a crew library area and if they'll take my finished books to it. Since I read so much, I know the cost of new, current books isn't negligible and I'd love for crew members to be able to have books for free.

    I thinks it’s awesome that you added a few scenes of past besties that we don’t see much such as Shea. Miss her silliness. Not saying that the current besties aren’t great.

    It's great to see these areas for crew, as you guys work hard for 6 months straight with no days off, so you deserve it. Thanks for sharing. I regret not applying to work on a cruise ship when I was younger (I'm 43 now), but I have been told by a local hiring company here in Toronto Canada, that I have the experience to work probably on tour excursions, as I've worked as a hotel shuttle driver/Niagara tour driver here. I'd also be interested in working in the shops, like gift shops. Do you think my age now would be a downside to applying?
