So, how many activities are there on the ship?
|
|
|
Just glancing at the "Compass," it's hundreds. There's rock climbing, ice-skating, golf, health and fitness. The list goes on and on.
|
|
|
Do activities change for different ports of call?
|
|
|
In Cozumel, we all wear sombreros at a Mexican fiesta. And in Montego Bay, we wear tropical outfits and a calypso band plays poolside.
|
|
|
What are guests' favorite Caribbean destinations?
|
|
|
St. Thomas and St. Maarten are on the top of the list. They're both known for their shopping and beaches. Our private destinations, Labadee and CocoCay, are also very popular.
|
|
|
Do guests act differently after a few days in the Caribbean?
|
|
|
Sure. Women get braids. Men wear Caribbean shirts. It's a time to let your hair down and have fun. If we send people home with amazing memories and a big smile, we've done our job.

|
|
Name something crazy you've done because of this job.
|
|
|
I've learned to scuba dive, sky dive, and bungee jump.
|
|
|
And how long have you worked for Royal Caribbean?
|
|
|
This is my thirteenth year, and I've worked on nine different ships - but don't ask me to name a favorite. They are all my favorites!
