wallyworld583 Posted March 17, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Does anyone 'know' what happens to the crew when a ship is broken, like one of the Carnival ships? I assume they still get paid but is there any allowance for the tips they don't get or are they just out of luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eriksgarden Posted March 17, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I think they are out of luck. Companies don't seem to care much about employees these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbond Posted March 17, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I would think that they are out of luck. Do you think your local restaurant/hotel pays it's help if they have to close for a time to make repairs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednancy1 Posted March 17, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I'm sure the crew is out of luck and I really feel for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chengkp75 Posted March 17, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 17, 2013 You are correct. They lose that revenue. And unlike US employees, the gratuities make up nearly 40% of their pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my tip based summer job, tips account for 75% of my income. Just a friendly reminder to always tip your tour guide.:o Especially if you are in Niagara Falls.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crenntive Posted March 17, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I think they are going to get there set pay of X $ a week but nothing other than that. Its whatever the contract states . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
