Get to know your cruise ship crew members
"The crew members working on your cruise ship are far from home, working long hours, and often managing multiple roles throughout the day. TravelHost's Come Cruise With Me Editor in Chief Daniel Kline and his travel agent partner, Postcard Travel Planning's Dennis Post, share their perspective on crew interactions from Celebrity Apex's Craft Social bar. They explain why getting to know crew members makes a difference for everyone involved and share some unexpected ways these relationships can develop."
"Dan Kline: Hey there, cruisers. Dan and Dennis, your travel hosts, coming to you from the Celebrity Apex in Craft Social. And I wanted to talk a little bit about the crew. So a lot of the crew here at Craft Social- we're regulars. We spend a lot of our time here during the day Dennis Post: Every day Kline: but a lot of them also work in the casino and they will find you and make sure you have what you need."
Crew members on cruise ships live far from home, work long hours, and often perform multiple roles across venues such as bars and casinos. Simple, genuine questions — where they are from, how long their contract lasts, whether they have children — build rapport and show interest in their lives. Regular passengers who get to know crew can receive attentive service like coffee or water, and crew members seek out familiar guests. Developing friendly relationships can create unexpected opportunities, mutual kindnesses, and occasional invitations, enriching both passenger experiences and crew morale. Respectful conversations also humanize crew and can reduce the sense of isolation that long contracts create.
