Umbarger Posted August 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Does anyone know what the crew on the Millie is going to do while it is being repaired? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted August 22, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Does anyone know what the crew on the Millie is going to do while it is being repaired? Just curious. There could be a few scenerios......some transferring to other ships and some (who might be close to the end of their contracts) may go home..... But I cannot tell you 100% for sure where everyone is going. I don't see many staying on board though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never empty the ship of the hotel and restaurant staffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone's guess;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hancock Posted August 22, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I believe I read that the drydock will be in the Bahamas. If that is the case, much of the time will be needed to get there from the West coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT Trips Posted August 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2013 And there are the reports that USCG said no pax until the repairs are done. Wonder whether cabin attendants, bar staff and servers are considered "pax" if no paying pax aboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave85 Posted August 22, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 22, 2013 The CC article from this morning addressed these concerns. http://www.cruisecritic.com/news/news.cfm?ID=5497 Notably, service employees that typically receive tips and remain on board will have their tips "protected" by X's dry dock policy.

Rare cruisestitch Posted August 22, 2013 #8 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Most crew expected to remain on board. Seasonal staff, such as Fun Factory, were leaving. Some gift shop staff had already left. A few crew bets with scheduled vacation time that was to begin shortly thought that they might be sent home and have their next contracts adjusted accordingly. No one I talked to had received firm instructions. All said that they would rather have pax aboard even though its hard work. Nice of them to say it even if they might privately think otherwise . One person talked about a lot of special cleaning, and organizing, a chance to move some supplies around and clean out closets, but I couldn't tell if he was joking or not!
