The cruise ship building boom is continuing for 2011 which equates to even more cruise ship vacancies. The bottom line is that just over 7,000 positions will need to be filled for 2011.
Do you want to fill one of these jobs?
In just a few weeks, Norwegian Cruise Line will be launching the Norwegian Epic, NCL’s largest ship to date. One of our WorkOnCruiseShips.com members, mxtucker21 (Megan) was fortunate enough to get hired in a Recreation Staff position.
Megan wrote on the Discussion Forum,
“I just received my flight information for meeting the Epic on June 12th and I will be meeting her in France!!!! I’m so excited to be part of the launching team!….Thanks again for everyone’s support. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without you guys.”
Although we are only just in the middle of 2010, it’s not too early to get an idea of which new cruise ships will debut in 2011. The launch of Royal CaribbeanÕs Allure of the Seas will close off 2010 in December. Being the sister ship to RCIÕs Oasis of the Seas it will be another mega-ship at 220,000 GRT.
One of the most anticipated launches for 2011 will be from Disney Cruise Line. The Disney Dream will be Disney’s largest ship at 128,000 GRT carrying over 4,000 passengers with close to 1,500 crew members. It will be one of the first big cruise ships to be launched in 2011.
