Love life onboard – Part 2

Royal Caribbean has a very friendly policy regarding couples onboard. A happy person is a happy worker so managers onboard are closing their eyes when it comes at who’s sleeping with whom and where.

If you’re husband and wife you’ll get your own cabin where you can live together. Also, you can transfer to another ship if your other half is there already. The company seems to care about families so you don’t need to worry, you’ll always be together and work together. Even your work schedule can be accommodated to fit the other’s schedule. All you have to do is tell your supervisor about it.

Now, with couples is a bit different. The company policy doesn’t say anything about it, BUT, your supervisor usually understands these things and will try to help you. If you have a long-term relationship that everyone knows about it shouldn’t be a problem, you’ll get your cabin together and your work schedule changed. If you met the love of your life recently, there are 2 things you can do about it:

  1. Sneak out every night in your other half’s bed
  2. Find another couple and switch without your supervisor knowing about it

Supervisors are cautious when it comes to fresh relationships because of 2 reasons:

  1. Berthing is limited onboard the ship
  2. If you just met the other one, the chances of you breaking up are high and reassigning you to different cabins can take up to a week. So you find yourself living with a person you don’t like anymore

All in one, love life onboard the Royal Caribbean ships is encouraged and as long as you find somebody you like, everything will be made as easy as possible by your supervisor.

That’s the easy part. Now, the hard part comes…how do you know the other person doesn’t have anybody else onboard, or worse, how do you know if it’s married or not? Well, the sad news is you can't...just follow your instinct, LEARN their culture and most important, listen to your friends.
