I've been working in the cruise ship na rin for 2yrs, sa starcruises din ako galing but after 2contracts I decided to shift sa iba.

If you're interested mas ok if you have an experience for at least 2-yrs. What department ba gusto mong applyan sis? Ako nag-start sa Magsaysay, pero before I apply may experienced na rin ako dito satin. Ok ang mga ships sa Magsaysay sis kung beginner ka, dun talaga ako natuto. If sa Casino ka naman di importante ang experience pero MAS advantage kung meron. May mga trainings din kase sila kung talagang baguhan ka. Tyaga lang sis, at dapat ready ka dahil hinde madali ang buhay sa barko,yan ang pinaka-importante.

Goodluck sayo. ;)

i worked on a cruise ship before as front desk attendant. ok naman. mahirap sa umpisa pero pag naka adjust ka na, masaya din naman. imagine that you'll get to go places for free di ba. libre din yung tours sa mga crew kaya masaya.

Hindi na ba nakakatakot pag malakas ang bagyo?  May instances ba na ganun?

^ hindi naman. nung nasa carribean kami, may instances na nadedelay kami ng arrival sa isang port dahil sa bagyo kasi umiiwas kami sa lugar na may bagyo. minsan pag sobra lakas, kinacancel na yung next port.
saka sa sobrang laki nung ship, di mo mararamdaman masyado yung alon. unless super mega lakas talaga nung mga alon.
nasea sick ako once. di talaga kinaya ng powers ko. pero may doctors naman sa barko kaya ok lang.

Sis sheric: Since nagbabarko pala hubby mo why not join nalang sa fleet nila, baka may kakilala si hubby mo dun, mas masaya pag-kasama kayo ;D

Dami na rin ngayon mga training center na nag-ooffer ng hotel trainings, sila na mismo ang mag-aassign sa inyo kung saan hotel kayo, 6mos training ata yon. Try mo inquire sis. January is the best month to apply kase minsan may mga bagong ship na nilalabas nila umpisa ng taon. Sis, ang alam ko mabigat din ang housekeeping, pero sanayan lang naman yan, ako kase more on paper works lang pero may mga friends ako sa housekeeping department na patayan din ang trabaho, imagine 16-18 cabins ang lilinisan mo,pero nasa diskarte naman, & malaki naman ang tippings pag-housekeeping, so wortheth ang pagod ;D I'll pm you sis about those training centers na nag-ooffer ng hotel trainings, ask ko muna yong friend ko.

sis babaengmahiwaga: sis aaliyah is right, may advise naman ang coastguard if ever safe or unsafe kayo sa port of call nyo, & besides before naman kayo aalis sa isang port the captain & officers make sure that the weather forecast is ok. Sa mga nababalitaan naman nating incident about those ship/boat na nalulunod due to high seas yon na yong kapapabayaan ng captain or human error, or di kinaya ng makina ng barko.  :)

i've been to star cruises for about 2 1/2 years ,ok naman ang working experiences ko doon naka ipon din , nakarating sa iba-ibang bansa ,naka pag shopping galore din naman sa mga magagandang shopping destination sa asia at higit sa lahat naka pag papicture sa magagandang tourist spot around asia, minsan australia. depende kung may special cruise.

ok ang trabaho kung working away from family ang goal mo,pero kung over attach ka sa family kalimutan mo na ,sigurado home sick ang aabutin mo at magreresign ka lang, mag babayad ka pa ng tiket mo pabalik ng pinas.

kung wala ka pang expirience sa barko at gusto  mo talaga try mo ang magsaysay kasi sila lang ang nag ooffer ng training na kailangan mo.and pag gusto ka nila i te train ka nila agad ,pag nag training ka sigurado ka na na aalis ka,kasi ang alam ko sa iba may training na at lahat di pa sure kung aalis o hindi.

depende sa iyo kung gusto mong maka ipon o hindi ,,kung gusto mo shore leave lagi di ka nga makaka ipon , pero kung trabaho ka lang dami mong iuuwing dollars.

good luck na lang sa mga gustong mag barko. :)

my bf is working for a cruise ship as a photographer. the work itself is okay, benefits are good din. sabi nya his work is not really tiring and he gets to enjoy almost all the benefits that customers enjoy for free (like he can eat in passenger restos, go diving, etc) mukhang enjoy pa sya so okay din. he got to come home for christmas and new year naman.

i have a friend who went to work at star cruises, but only stayed for 5 months... naka-station sya sa casino... the sweldo was fixed at $250, and because of the low peso-dollar rate, and liit na ng naipapadala nya... tipping daw is not allowed on board, and if meron man, centralized sya and unfair yung hatian...

alam mo sa tingin ko masyado lang pinalalaki ng tao ang sweldo ng mga seaman/seawoman..di naman kasi lahat malaki ang offer.even if experienced kana.ang kunswelo mo na lang is yung travel..si hubby din mababa ang offer even if yung experience nya is ok. and with the current exchange rate,bumababa pa.

Sis, depende po yan sa principal ng barko, may mga principal talaga na mataas ang bigay compared sa iba, like sa starcruises kaya mababa sya kase malaysian ang principal eh medyo mababa ang rates nila. Na-experienced ko na rin yan, Yong 1st ship na sinakyan ko compared sa nilipatan ko X5 ang sahod ko, kase maganda talaga mag-bigay yong principal na napasokan ko, kaya hindi po sila nag-babase sa experience.
