Ship Life: Work Week
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ม.ค. 2018
- There are cruises of all different lengths, so when it comes to your work schedule, it can get crazy. However, a common cruise length is a week. Even though there may seem to only be so many things to do on a cruise ship, there is never a dull moment. And it is up to the crew to make every day different, enjoyable, entertaining, fun, and memorable.

I have never been on a cruise and at 51 will never work on a cruise ship but as an ex scuba diving instructor who worked on liveaboards in my youth I really enjoy your videos. You have a very engaging old school "fireside chat" style and the content is fascinating. Thank you.
Youth Staff sounds like an amazing job!! Even with long days it sounds extremely fun to work as a Youth Counselor for NCL. Thanks so much for the videos, they are all so informative!
Hey! thx for the video, your videos really help me understand what life at sea would be like, keep up the good work.
Great video and informative as usual! Keep up the great work!
Powerfull Sean thanks mate!
Living for these vids!
Love love your videos..
Thank you so much 😍
Are you allowed off the ship during overnights?
Plz make another video😀
7 days a week. 6 to 8 months depends on dept. a person has to be physically & mentally fit. plus he really need a job.
benefits are there. just completed 13 years in ships. another 20 to go.
Greetings from Richmond, VA. Totally random, you have the best hair. Ha. Enjoy your videos man. Have been kinda looking at crew life, these videos definitely have educated me.
Billy Johnson thanks man. Come on down to Charlotte. We’ll grab a coffee
Sean Price - I’ll hit you up via email. I’m going to be in Columbia, SC all next week doing some consulting work at EdVenture - so about 2 hours away.

Answer it well
Hi All
Good day to all of you.
I am about to start my job on royal carribiens as a IT Specialist. Please share your experiences about IT work week and their services, their facilities provided. All suggestions are welcomed and I will appreciate.
How would you rank the musicians (band) work? I hear it’s 3 hour shows a night. But not sure what the other part of the day would require. Our band is signing a deal with NCL. I want a little heads up to know what to expect. We are looking forward to the opportunity to entertain the guests.
Can you choose how long you want your contracts you want them to be on the cruise ship or do they choose it for you? If u can make a video about this it would be helpful 🙂
natalia acosta Actualky that’s a super simple and quick answer. Musicians can choose their own contract lengths because they are working with agents who also get a percentage or their salary. For every other position on the ship, it is a predetermined length. You can always request but chances are you won’t get it changed. Most contracts for the cruise lines are around 6 months.
Thank you Sean
I'm considering becoming a table games dealer on a cruise ship. Do you have any insight on how the casino runs things? Like shifts, time off, etc?
Brandon Gibbins I only know some stuff about the casino. They are closed while in port. And open while at sea so they are open all night long. So your shifts will be quite long. They also allow smoking in the casino and they can get really Smokey.
What study I should do to get good job in Crowe
Shantanu Lohar Cruise ships have almost any job you can think of. So if there is a particular job or subject that interests you, study that. And there is a good chance the ship will have a position similar to that.
I'll be in Charlotte on the 17th going to my Scrabble teacher for a kesson . Care to get some coffee over a couple of games?
keymaninmusic I’m not much of a scrambler but i’d Be happy to meet for coffee if I’m free. Send me an email and let’s see if our calanders can sync up!
I am going to apply as an animator to the ship but can't find any info about shedule or free time! You had experience in entertainment team, please share the knowledge! :)
Olena Omelchenko honestly you’re going to feel like you work all the time. Your free time will be a few hours here and there. Enough to get off in some ports for a while; and sometimes you’ll have a night off so you can watch a production show or have a nice dinner. Expect to work a lot though. And then once you’re there you’ll figure out ways to work you schedule to benefit you the best
Do you know anything about a nurse position on a cruise ship? Are they officers? Do they get days off?
Ansley Frost Fromcwht I have seen, nurses have a little bit more of a normal schedule. Hourly at least. Basically the same hours everyday. But I would never say you have days off. You are a lucky few if you actually have a “day off.” And yes, I believe the medical staff are all ranked a little higher. But maybe just half a stripe higher than the entertainment staff.
Sean Price thanks so much!
What privileges would you have being part of the Youth Staff?
Jamie Higgenbottom the youth staff had the same privilege as me. Public access. Passenger gym. Passenger buffet.
Thank you for the information.
Sir. My 10th std is over just now I won't any name of good
notikal university in Norway and what should I study I am 50 50 in study and Sir. I was thinking Environmental department in ship 😊😊
Shantanu Lohar On my ships there was really on one Environmental officer, at least to my knowledge. I think that would be an incredible field but I t may be hard to get in. But once you’re in you would be good to go. You could also look into becoming a Safety officer on the vessel. Those two positions were on a similar level.
Sir any notikal university in Norway?????
Shantanu Lohar Unfortunately I don’t know of any schools in Norway to help put you in a good direction for ships. My apologies.
I worked for American Cruise lines for 4 months last yr. It's one of the easiest cruise ship jobs to get and I tell people it's like a boot camp. It's good to go on to see if you really want to do this. You don't need a any other credentials really just some job experience or you have to be a college student. It's hard work. It pays pretty decent if you're not a deckhand (1500 at least every two weeks) and it was a lot of fun. It really isn't for everybody especially if you're not used to long hours. If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to answer them. Great vid btw
Phil J. thanks man. Yeah, every cruise line will be different. Every job will be different as well. Thanks for the info!
Phil J. How do you get hired? Ive applied at this cruise company in Portland, OR but my application was turned down. Do you have any suggestion on what I can do to prove I am determined hard-worker?
I don't get what you used to do. Because it sounds like you were a videographer, which normally is part of the photo team, But you were part of the entertainment team... Odd for me. (From chile!)
Maca Aranda Yeah, NCL combines videography and broadcast into one job. I think Royal Caribbean has two separate positions and the videographers are in the photo team.
Hi Sean, please explain, what did you broadcast on the ship and to whom? E.g. voiced announcements, shows that you videoed broadcast to the customers cabins, videos broadcast to the cruise line’s website? Did you do videos for the passengers to take home?
How many hours a day are you working in broadcasting
Kurtis O'Dea I was working like 10 a day when I started. But once I figure out how to work it dropped to like 5 hours a day
Coffee With Sean thanks for the quick reply Sean. That's awesome I figured there might be tricks once you get the gig down. I am accepted to work broadcast on Royal Caribbean. Just got pass medical
So I am assuming entertainment is one of the better departments you could work on a cruise
Kurtis O'Dea Congrats man. Keep me posted on your travels
Kurtis O'Dea if I were to go back to ships I would most likely stay in entertainment
i have watched every one of these stupid videos and i dont know why. I have no intention of ever working or going on a cruise ship. I hate youtube.
