*********************************************** Your Talents For a Free Cruise ~ By Daniel Hall http://rosa22.djh1001.hop.clickbank.net/ *********************************************** It’s true! You can trade your talents for free (or substantially discounted) luxury cruises. Cruise line management is very interested in keeping their passengers happy at all times. This goal is a bit more challenging on days when the ship’s at sea. To address this issue the cruise lines offer all manner of onboard activity. Many of these activities are staffed by outside people who typically cruise free or at discounted fees paid to booking agencies. One key advantage is the time commitment, which is generally minimal for those who are contracted (usually an hour per day on days when the ship’s at sea). Also, most outside contractors get to bring along a traveling companion who also cruises free. You may consider whether you could trade your talents for free cruises. To assist in your self- assessment here is a list of positions typically staffed by outside people: Enrichment Lecturer: Many cruise lines have formal enrichment programs that offer edutainment type programs in a variety of topics. A majority of these programs use destination-driven lectures although many lines will also consider general interest topics. Arts and Crafts Instructors: Craft classes are an onboard staple at sea. Projects range from so called “high art” like watercolor classes to simple macramé projects. Typically, the more popular classes are those that are also destination related, i.e. handicraft or folk art of one of the countries on the itinerary. Dance Instructors: These classes too are often related to the destinations being visited, i.e., Line dances (Texas); Meringue (Dominican Republic); Salsa (Puerto Rico), Samba (Brazil), Tarantella (Italy) etc.. Obviously you must have happy feet and know your business, but there is much fun to be had. Bridge Players: If you enjoy playing bridge and have a “knack” for it, you can spend a couple hours a day in the game room playing in exchange for your cruise. Many times a requirement here is that your traveling companion must be ready, willing and able to sit in on a game should a pair need to be completed in order to play. Gentleman Host: Single? Chatty? Happy feet? Impeccable manners? Gentleman will be expected to appropriately entertain unescorted ladies on the cruise. Dancing and polite company are the stock in trade for this onboard position. Computer Instructors: Many cruise lines are very interested in contracting with folks who can deliver a series of onboard computer classes. The list does not end here. Many cruise lines will consider any kind of tasteful and interesting activity. In any event, trading your talents for free cruises is worth investigating further.

All About Photographer Jobs on Cruise Ships
Photographers on cruise ships know how to do much more than take pictures. They motivate passengers, show passengers how to have a good time, and they hustle to make the bucks. Professional photographers on cruise ships work either solo or as part of a 6-7 member team under the direction of an seasoned Chief Photographer. In addition to a can-do attitude, friendly personality, and the ability to multi-task, photographers on cruise ships must have the ability to make split-second shots of passengers, process and develop photographs, set the stage if needed, and operate a wide range of cameras.
Photographers on cruise ships work on commission only. A good photographer can earn anywhere from $300 on the low end up to $1,000 on the high end per week. A big part of a photographers job is to catch passengers as the board the ship, shake hands with the captain, walk through gangways, dine in restaurants, leave the ship at various ports, and party. These photographs are placed on display where passengers can purchase them. This means, photographers are constantly on deadline to get the pictures on display, so that they can sell quickly. This part of the job equals big commissions for these professionals.
If you%u2019re interested in becoming a photographer on cruise ships and you have solid, verifiable skills and references, you can get started by choosing several cruise lines you%u2019re most interested in. You can locate the cruise lines%u2019 OFFICIAL website by visiting the Ships and Cruises Directory for official listings. Once you have located the site, visit the website and search around for job postings. Most cruise line websites have a career center or job postings page. If the cruise line lists photography job openings, be sure to follow the application procedure to the letter. Applicants that do not follow directions are typically passed over in favor of those that do. If the cruise line does not list job openings on its site, send a polished cover letter and resume to the cruise lines Human Resources Department. The Human Resources Department is typically located at the cruise lines headquarters. This information is usually listed on the cruise line website as well. It is important to include the position you are interested in so that it can be directed to the appropriate department manager.

Hi, Im looking for someone who might know alitlle about getting a security job on a cruise ship or someone who is already one.
I am a police officer on a sabatical who is currenly looking for such work. I have applied for a few jobs on various cruise ships but security is really what im after.
Any help would be great!
With a police background, you will likely be an ideal candidate for a security position on a cruise ship. I would definitely contact the major cruise lines to find out. Here is a brief list.

I live in san diego and cruise ships come in and out all the time. Any tips or advice on how to get a job on one?
You need to go to the cruise line web sites. There you will find a link to jobs, employment, human resources or some such link that will give you information about their positions.
DO NOT use any other web sites that require you to pay a fee to register or get job information or referrals. Some cruise line sites may have current vacancies they are recruiting for. Several cruise lines have new ships coming out soon so opportunities will be there. Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Disney and some others will have new ships launched in the next couple years.
Here are some links:
Carnival is the parent company for several cruise lines including Carnival, Cunard, Princess, and Holland America. So contacting Carnival will likely get you leads to the other cruise lines also.
PRINCESS:
http://www.princess.com/index.html
CARNIVAL:
http://www.carnivalcruiselines.com/
Then Royal Caribbean cruise line is a partner with Celebrity and Azamara. So contacting RC will likely also get you leads to these others. Royal Caribbean has very good information about its positions. So if you go there first you will know what most ships have. Then if you have further questions you should write a letter to the cruise line and ask them; they will respond.
AZAMARA:

CELEBRITY:

ROYAL CARIBBEAN:

NORWEGIAN:

DISNEY:

Another thing to do is to contact the concession that run the shops on the ships like the souvenir, gift and clothing shops. These are the companies that hire the beauty shop/spa employees for ships. Below are links for you.

and

The cruise lines also hire people to work on land at call in reservation and information centers around the country. Some are in Miami and others are in Seattle and other cities. In addition, they also hire part-time people to work at the port on the days when ships are departing. So when you contact the cruise lines you may want to ask about those type positions also.

I’m in school now taking photography classes, and would like to know what I need to do to get a job on a cruise ship? All I can find is info about the job but not how to get the job. Thanks
Pose this question to
digitaldunesphoto@yahoo.com
Curt spent years doing it and he’s not a bad photographer.
Tell him Chris send you. LOL
I am an experienced barman and am hoping to get a job on a cruise ship so i can travel as i work. It is very hard to find out information on cruise ship vacancies can anyone help me? previous experience would be a great help. thanks.
Your best option is to go to the website for each of the cruise lines and check their employment/career/jobs page for instructions. I would not trust any "agency" that says they are doing hiring for cruise lines as the cruise lines normally do their own hiring.
I have included links to Carnival & Royal Caribbean employment pages below…
I am looking EVERYWHERE on google, and the adresses for people seeking employment (mail or email) are very hard to find. can I get any help please? this is my dream.
