Cruise Line Jobs
"The Fun
Ships"
"The Fun Ships"-
that is exactly what the Carnival ships are. More affordable cruises,
lots of neon lights, not that much elegance and formal atmosphere.
Carnival is catering towards younger passengers and the main objective
aboard the vessels is party, party and party again. That makes
Carnival the richest cruise line in the world (the company owns also
Holland America Cruise Line, Costa Cruises, Seabourn Cruise Line,
Cunard Line and Windstar Cruises) which operate independently as
separate brands and target a more upscale clientele). Carnival Cruise
Line started in 1972 when Ted Arison bought one ship, the "Mardi
Gras", for $1, and assumed its debt. At the time, Bob Dickinson
worked for Carnival's parent company, American International Travel
Service of Boston. In 1973, after Carnival had lost $8 million in six
months, Dickinson was sent to Miami to "unload the turkey,"
as he recalls, noting he had never even seen a cruise ship at that
point. Instead, he studied the company's problems and figured they
could be fixed. Carnival cruise line employs at the moment about 3,500
people on shore - the majority at corporate headquarters in Miami -
and 28,000 on its ships.
What can
employees expect from Carnival? Slightly lower salaries and somewhat
lower standards when selecting candidates comparing to most of the
other major cruise lines. Carnival crew members are like their
clientele, they like to party and most of them believe that the more
"loose" atmosphere and the presence of younger passengers
makes up for the slightly lower salaries.
