@@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...
@@Seendnoodz 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

@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.
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.
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....
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!!
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.
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
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.
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
Usually top officers get cabins by the bridge and they sometimes have large windows and sometimes balconies. They also come with room service and cabin attendants.
A few years ago I found a duck in the casino on a carnival cruise. I have a picture of it but I didn’t check if it had money I just hid it in a different spot hahah
@ajmacnab63 No shit. I'm 4 months into my 4th contract. It's not feasible for everyone to have a window. I never have and honestly, it's not that bad. You just go out to the open deck or back/front deck every day to get some fresh air and sun. And pretty much no one stays for a year long contract, it's extremely rare. Even 10 months is rare.
@ajmacnab63 It's not bad for entertainment, which is the department I'm in, which is the department this guy is in. For the other hundreds of crew, it's an awful job. So no, I'm not talking shit. I have first hand experience and you're just making assumptions based on information you've heard second hand.
My friend signed up for this. Went to Hawaii to start. &&& she couldn’t deal with the small rooms. She thought it would be fine. Yeah. They left her stranded. No help to get her back home at all. Smh. &&& sadly. She said met quite a few ppl in the same boat. That have been stuck for days. Weeks. Months. &&& YEARS
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.
Cruise director is a 3 stripes position. So they do not have the biggest crew cabins. Usualy there are 3 positions that are 4 stripe, that is: Captain, Chief enginer and hotel director.
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
The cruise companies seem extremely stingy with that shared bathroom setup. Look how small that little bit of space is, it's like 2ft wide by around 4ft! Just give everyone that amount of room, it's so small compared to the overall room size and is a massive negative for the crew I'd imagine.
When I went to a porthole room on my ship I was living the life. Then I got a full picture window and all my coworkers would come hang in my room 🤣 I miss the ship life sometimes
Why don't you join Democratic or Republican party? You wouldn't need to go into combat and put your life on the line and just be a chicken warhawk from the comfort of your office in Washington!!
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
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.
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
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

Thanks so much! And thanks for the shout-out in your video!
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

@@RichmondHomesandLifestyle thanks that actually did help a lot!! I was curious
Love these. Thanks for the tours. Very Interesting!
Love the cruise director's port hole bedroom. Especially if it rains ... Mint!!
I want to see the Captain’s!
I want to see all the ships officers quarters!
Neat to see the different cabins. Thanks for the tour!!
Love these Cruise Chronicles!! Its awesome seeing behind the scenes!
After Growing up on container ships, makes these cabins look so small
I got married on the allure August 14th 2023. Wonderful ship and staff
Congrats,
Congratulations.
Wish y’all the best! :)
What kind of cabin does an officer (nurse) typically get?
Love these vid by the way!
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.
Nurses usually get single cabins.
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
Cruise directors room is like a 89 dollar a night room at super 8
On our cruise, the cruise Director was like the coolest person
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.

so the worst one is the bunk one

Thanks for the info... I enjoy your content
I never met a cruise director who deserves that cabin!
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
Show us the rooms where the waiters, cleaners etc stay. You know the ones from the Philippines, Indonesia, India etc
I always wanted to go on a cruise but so scared.

@@dougstokes6476 because if it tips I could die🤭
Sick bro I never been on a cruise , your info is great
Thanks for the room tour. From your cruise ship. It's interesting.
Wouldve loved to see captains quarters :)
Would love to see the Captains room. 🤯
Ty for always taking your time for us ❤
That captains room near the bridge has to be the best imo
Hope you get to work on Icon or Utopia and we get to see you again!
That'd be incredible!
Thanks for sharing!!😊
love the videos! so interesting!
Wooow just waking up and see the ocean ❤
I’ve been on that ship and it was the best time ever.
That aqua show was nice.
Hopefully cruises are as fun as it looks
But they look horrendous
Oh! Terraforming Mars box spotted, actual banger of a board game.
Definitely the window is the best part ❤
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.
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
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.
The last room is wow
Thanks for what you do but I could NEVER do it
Thank you 😊 🎉
That window would make me nervous with high seas. Lol
Thanks for sharing
How about the casino director ? 😊
I’m to cluster phobic for the first one lol
My coworker is on a cruise this week during hurricane season 😂😂😂
Bro said "everybody wants" so many times that I think everyone just wants to go home😂
Thank you .
exact same as boarding shool dorms
A hierarchy to cabins 💀

This makes me wanna cruise again…
They really need to start upgrading their crew quarters it seems! Lol
Remember you guys from Celebrity…Reflection or Silhouette I guess🤟🏻
You would think that workers accommodations would be more livable
Allure is such a great ship.
I found one of them when I was on the ship and placed it somewhere else lol
awesome job
The tiny one is $1200 in my area
My cousin worked on a cruise ship...she said she loved the bunk room. She doesn't like being alone.
I just can't with the low ceilings on cruise ships.
A few years ago I found a duck in the casino on a carnival cruise. I have a picture of it but I didn’t check if it had money I just hid it in a different spot hahah
Dude I will be crazy too see him at a house
Gotta be cruise director! Got it!
Those are prison cells. Not even a window
Well yeah, with over 1000 crew, not everyone is going to get a window. Lots of passengers have inside cabins with no window too.
yes but those passengers don't live there all year long. @@brassholio

I'd be happy enough to have a room on my own.

You didn't show the last bathroom
You should see the captains cabin or the first officer
And now I want to work on a cruise ship
It looks fun. Except for the bathroom thing.
Do the captains, Kevin
Bet kitchen staff gets the bunks. Kitchen always gets shafted.
What cabins do the jr officers get?
You should see the oasis class captains cabin, thats the best crew cabin (obviously)
What about the captains room how big is that
