Spend your winters in the Caribbean and your summers in Alaska or travel to remote and exotic ports in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South America and all over the world aboard a luxury cruise ship. Most people pay between 1500 and 10 000 U.S. dollars per week to live on the same cruise ships and visit the same places. You can do that for free (free meals, accommodations) plus you will get paid for it. It's an adventures job and a great way to save money and meet people from many different cultures. Cruise ship jobs are great summer jobs for students, as well.

No other industry has been growing so rapidly in the past seven years as the cruise ship industry.  Just for the last four years all leading cruise lines have doubled their fleets and number of employees. Many new cruise ship companies have emerged trying to get their share from the cruise market explosion. With all the cruise ships currently under construction the number of cruise ship jobs worldwide is expected to triple by the year 2008 meaning over 47,000 new cruise ship jobs. New cruise ships are still coming online at the average rate of seven per year, and almost every ship sets sail near full capacity week after week. Close to a million more cruises are taken every year than the one before, and every year ships get bigger and better. Ten years ago the largest cruise ship was under 100,000-tons, now, there are 30 cruise ships over 100,000-tons, many of them well over. There are 20 more ships scheduled to come online in the next three years, and in late 2009, we will begin the era of the post 200,000-ton cruise ship. Cruise ships resembling  giant floating hotels employ thousands of crew members performing duties and taking job positions identical or very similar to jobs at five star hotels or resorts.  There has never been a better time to apply for a job on cruise ship. It is quite likely that a job that you have worked in the past will give you enough experience to perform various cruise ship jobs. Almost every hospitality related job or job that you worked with customers or clients should give you enough experience and a serious chance to get hired for a number of cruise ship job positions. Compared to other industries, cruise lines have a much higher employees turnover rate. Most people do not consider cruise ship jobs as life-long cruise career, some crew members get promoted, change ships or cruise lines, go on vacation, return to school, or just settle down back on land. For that and many other reasons cruise lines are ALWAYS HIRING and looking for new personnel. There is a cruise ship job for just about everyone. Cruise lines hire applicants from almost every country in the world. Many entry-level positions are also available. Regardless of your nationality or previous employment experience there are cruise jobs for you aboard the hundreds of cruise ships operating all over the world.

Jobs on a luxury cruise ship and cruise line employment offer numerous rewards, but the most common reasons for obtaining them are:

- you can not only earn, but save a substantial amount of money for a short period of time, all your expenses are taken care of by the cruise line ( food, accommodation, medical care, airline ticket to the port of embarkation and back home, regardless which part of the world you live).

- citizens of certain countries do not have to pay taxes on the income they have earned aboard cruise ships (U.S. citizens pay taxes if employed by U.S. based cruise line).

- travel in style around the world aboard a luxury cruise ship for free (even getting paid for it).

- getting away from a boring job, career or every day routine and exchange it for rewarding and adventures cruise ship job.

- free medical insurance.

- discounted cruise rates for relatives and family members.

- cruise line jobs are the best form of overseas jobs, since aboard a cruise ship in fact you will be working in many overseas countries and places instead of one. Other travel jobs can not offer you visits to such a variety of places, counties, climates and continents as cruise ship jobs offer.

While working aboard a cruise ship you enjoy a wining combination - having a profitable and exciting job and cruise ship career, traveling all over the world and always following the sun and the good weather, meeting crew members, passengers and local people and in the same time saving substantial amount of money (since you do not have to pay for accommodation and food).
Cruise ship jobs are in fact so addictive, that many crew members find it quite difficult to live on land after completing a contract aboard a cruise liner. It feels kind of strange to eat in a restaurant
and to pay the bill after when you've been doing it for free for months while working aboard a cruise ship.
