cpayne Posted July 2, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Hubby and I went out to dinner this evening and excitedly discussing our 8/21 Alaskan cruise. Got to talking about what a demanding job the Cruise Director has. Wondered how much they make to be "rewarded" for their basically 24/hr day position. Anyone have an idea????

spongerob Posted July 2, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 2, 2004 I think it's quite generous, and would annualize to an equivalent salary of well over $100,000 per year. Rumor has it that CD's get a cut of the casino profits, shore ex, and bingo/horse racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
