They Pull Pranks On The Guests
At sea, things may get rather dull. Cruise participants play pranks on guests to liven up the monotony. The pranks are harmless, as teasing passengers too much is a surefire way to get fired. According to an anonymous cruise staffer who talked to Mental Floss, “A favorite was while in a passenger area say to another crew member, loud enough to be heard by passengers, ‘Meet you in the bowling alley tonight!’” Of course, there was no bowling alley on the ship. “Then we’d wait for the comment cards to come in: ‘Why do crew get a bowling alley when we don’t?’”

How They Fill Unsold Cabins
Cruise ships are staffed and ready to depart from the port with a full ship. If there are any unsold accommodations onboard, the cruise ship will lose money. Passengers can take advantage of this by browsing for a cheaper cruise experience. It’s a wonderful value for passengers if you’re ready and able to book with only 1-2 month’s notice and are satisfied with a cabin without a balcony. Subscribe to cruise line email lists to learn about these discounted accommodations. Another option is to go online one week after the cruise you want to go on’s final payment is due. Make a ‘mock booking,’ in which you may examine which cabins are available at a reduced price. This is when you’ll find cheap cabins.
