I’m thinking about working full-time for myself, and living from cruise ships for 6mo to a year while continuing to build up my business. The main things I’m wondering about are: – Does anyone have experience doing this? I’m talking working fairly normal “business hours” (about 8 hours a day) from my laptop, then enjoying […]

I’m an armed Security Officer III (highest rank below corporate supervisor) at a nuclear facility in the US. I add that to address the question of qualification/background. A downside is that it’s extremely static and monotonous and I’m looking to do something different with my life. I have never been on a cruise but I […]

Is anyone cruising on the Norwegian Pearl in the next month or so? I just saw on the news where the current cruise has had mechanical difficulties and they have already canceled the cruise leaving in 3 days. I am going on the Greek Isles cruise leaving at the end of the month and am […]

I’ve only been on one other cruise (Carnival) and on that ship I (being a control freak/super planner) was on the app 24/7 planning which […]

I spoke to the mods about doing another AMA. Basic about me: 20s, managerial position on board, native English speaker. I’ve been on ships for coming up on two years now. I spend more time on ship than off, and have done many different itineraries. Feel free to ask me the ins and outs of […]

Okay I’m going on the Carnival Panorama this December and was looking into the Cheers! drink package. It’s about $50/day plus 18%. The cruise length will be 7 days so my question is will it be worth it? I’m really not trying to be drunk my whole vacation but I do like to have an […]

We live in the UK of that makes any difference. My partner around have been on 1 cruise before (7 nights /Greek Islands) and loved it! We booked that through cruise nation and the flash deals they do (in newsletter) seem very good value. Are there other sites I should take a look at or […]
