Crew Cabin Tour on a Cruise Ship 

I was a crew member in the '70s on the Big U (SS United States), the Indy (SS Independence), and the Connie (SS Constitution). We generally had four men to a focsile, iron bunk beds, and two tall gym lockers. No TVs. Public showers and no buffet. A slop chest that served only beer, no washing machines, and definitely no organized crew parties. Past 7 pm on most ships I sailed the menus were set... cold leftovers from above deck, beef tongue, and Puerto Rican Caviar (beans and rice). I thought I had it soft compared to my father who sailed Liberty Ships during WW2. I know it's a tough life working seven days a week but I'm amazed at how luxurious these small cabins are compared to when I sailed passenger ships as crew.. Fair winds and following seas all.

Cruise ship crews are awesome. You guys work hard. Thank you👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is a really nice crew cabin - I'd be really happy in here. Thanks for sharing this with us - really interesting to see!

Lots of direct blunt and inappropriate questions on this thread and you were patient and polite. Well done

You should see my cabin right now 😂 I'm only 1 month away from going home, I can't wait to sleep on a big bed, lol! Also, thanks for this notes, cause I'll do my cabin tour soon. 220th subscriber 👌

I was a crew member for years (on Disney) and if anything was broken it was reported and then fixed (sometimes it took weeks) but never moved into a room with broken mirror or drawers. I'm sorry you had some broken things!

He is charming. I also work for a cruise line, but shoreside. I could NEVER sail in that cabin because of a slight case of claustrophobia.

You must be on a royal carribean ship, cabins are tiny, when i worked on princess 2003 as a musician I shared a cabin and cabin was about same size as guests inside cabin, our beds bunkbeds same size as yours, but bathroom same as guest size, cabin size larger, I worked in 4pc lounge band I'm a female Keyboardist lead vocalist from USA, so if you have room steward which we chose not to have to pay for someone to clean our cabins we cleaned our own, towels we took down/got new clean towels maybe every 3-4days dry clean was free for our outfits, we had refrig/same size as yours, soaps I brought to last for 6mos contract lol. So are you solo guitar singer? what ship how long is your contract? maybe if we cruise as guests we will see you & which ship are you on? thanks for sharing video.

I will support your channel bro ‼️🍻

Congratulations 💐 for your new yt channel ❤️

Thanks for the crew cabin tour. Would be cool if you could access the ships virtual porthole stream. :)

Very informative contents 🍸 Thanks for sharing. I am about to work as an onboard solo artist (opera singer), but I was told that I would be sharing a cabin with someone ...

Finally! I love cruises

I like the way you explain clear and to the point. I wish to apply to be a security guard how do I go about that

Luxurious compared to crew's quarters in the Navy.

Planning on applying for housekeeping on princess Cruise if its hard af i may just reconsider lol

Will you be posting other videos? This was very interesting.

When I was on my one and only 10 day cruise (as a passenger), the biggest drawback for me was : no regular radio, TV, newspaper, AND (the worst, or the best depends on how you look at it) no internet. ps. 100th sub.

Why are you not returning the hangers? Lazy bit!

On which ship is the cabin tour?

Amazing ❤

I loved this video... nice content and very well commented! 👏🎬

Great information 👍

Do you guys get free WiFi?

If you a Special hired entertainer, or the " Star" of a show do you get a better cabin ?

Please post more videos.

what camera are you using

Which cruise company crew is this

You didn't show us the way outside and from which floor the crew cabins are. If the cruise is in a storm or heavy rain, will the cabin crew be aware and how does it effect the cabin.

Woww good

I'm still 15 years old. My brother will be working on a cruise ship in like 3 months. I am having interests to also work in a cruise ship. I would say my english is decent and it would be good enough to do daily conversations (English is not my first language). But i do have my concerns so if any crews or former crews are here, your help would mean a lot. So first, what are the medical checkups to work in a cruise ship? I personally have some concerns. I have some crooked teeth and also have keratosis Pilaris (Both of which are fixable but won't be easy haha). Second, I am worried about one major thing, and that is my social life. As a teen who spent a huge portion of my life in my home with very little social life because of Covid. I stutter quite a lot when saying repetitive words. I always say those words too fast so it almost becomes hard to know what I'm saying Third, i am an introvert. Even though I'm not badly introverted, sometimes during a conversation i don't know what to say or what to choose the topics of the talks are Fourth, How is the daily expenses on cruise ships? I know the food and cabins are free, but how is the other stuffs like Wifi, and etc? Especially that I'm looking to work as a food service which have a low pay compared to others Lastly, what is the work time? What is the time you spend at work daily? I've heard that sometimes it's around 8-16 hours a day and 7 days a week which is quite a lot but still manageable So yeah, that's about it, if anyone's reading this please give some advice haha

It depends first of all on the company, then on the ship, on those nasty ones you have to share the bathroom with the other two people from the other cabin. In 2023, I don't know a single pleasant company that will respect all its plans from a to z, only idiots, shitty food, they steal money from you because they do their books as they want, you work extra hours that are not paid and if you don't have a little of the school of life in a week you go home, or where you came from. I say this from 5 years of experience on 10 river ships, I heard that on the ocean it's much worse, you don't see the light of day even for weeks .

Roomier than others I’ve seen online

return the hangers man!

Si Zerik...teh siapa....

I did hotel management

Imagine being confined to one of these cabins during Covid 😮 I see why crew members were committing suicide.

How to join with crew of cruise? Please tell me

This guy is super spoiled. I say that as I worked for Princess Cruises on ships which are still on their fleet. Musicians/entertainment DO NOT work at all compared to any other department. My cabin was HALF the side of that one and I shared it with someone. On top of it, bathroom was shared with other cabin so yeah, 4 of us on one bathroom sucked. What a brat.

Modern slaves
