Would you volunteer for a test cruise? (Survey only - Not a place to apply)

[Love to sail]

Sign me up!

 

i’d go.  My roommate said he’d do it, too!

[Cruisemad888]

I am in U.K. and not far from Southampton so yes, sign me up!

[monctonguy]

I think this post has brought the most new members ever to this site!

[MAC]

Of Course.  We love new experiences!  

[Tony T]

Yes I am definitely interested in volunteering, you can add me to the list.

[steverk]

I'd love to, but my employer won't allow it.

Hmmmm...Maybe I should just retire!

[Lovetocruise2002]

Probably not a good idea to leave your personal info on a public forum here.  As @Matt said, this is simply a hypothetical question to generate discussion.  It IS NOT a thread for actually signing up.

[HeWhoWaits]

ROFLMAO at all those who keep creating accounts to "volunteer" even after repeated postings to remind everyone that it's a hypothetical question AND that this isn't where one will go to try to participate.

Hi Matt,

Doesn't mention anything about qualifications. Here are some of mine, do you think these will qualify me?

Bon Vivant, well versed in the English language as well as Pig Latin, able to walk and chew gum at the same time, highly experienced office worker qualified on most of the Xerox Multifunction / All-in-One Laser Printers, non smoker, non drinker before 12:00 noon, I am a professional amateur, always wading into areas that I hardly anything about and I can make sure nothing ever happens. 

[Garrett]

Yes!!! I would absolutely love to be a volunteer. I’ve cruised with RC in the past and I’m sure that RC would make every effort to follow CDC guidelines and keep crew, staff and passengers as safe as possible. All the while making for an incredible sailing experience. Sign me up!

You're perfect, Robert !!!

[JaxLena]

Yes, add me to the list.  I've been waiting all year for a cruise.  Sign me up now.

[Rosella]

Me and my husband very interested to volunteer since we both dont work.

[Pie]

yes we would be interested in volunteering.  Mike and April Klegin

[Bean79]

YES! I am all about getting businesses back up and running, and this one is no different.

[beccaball]

[sicomailman]

sign me up!!!

[Angellpn911]

Yes, I’d love to. I’m an avid cruiser and it’s been over a year since I went on my last RC cruise. It’s overdue. I will continue cruising and take my chances getting sick. It’s worth it to me.

[LibertyMoonbeam]

Where do I sign up? I absolutely would love to be a volunteer. I miss cruising!

[Dmore]

My wife and I are ready to

volunteer!

[Dmore]

Finally talked to my wife and we are ready to go cruising! Bring on the new rules and requirements we are ready to go!

[Daren C]

Yes my wife & I would volunteer. I'm in a scooter with mobility issues so I'd fulfill that niche.

[Michael Scott]

I love to be a volunteer for a test sail. Have experience in marketing and promotions as a muse of brain storming. Consumer base is changing. Cordially, Michael Scott

You sold me!

[Nic Falc]

Yes I would love to volunteer for one of these test cruises. My previous experience as a secret shopper for a consulting firm that worked with hotels & restaurants would render my opinion and advise invaluable to the cruise line.

[pure976]

I would most certainly be in!! Lets do this!

[Tara Haynes Robinson]

Certainly,  their report is well laid out, and they have an excellent panel for guidance. 

[EdgeofNothing]

Jus call I'm ready can't live in fear...

[Marlene Mason]

Yes, of course. I'm 57 years old, good health, no health issues, and retired. Since my time is flexible why not enjoy an outing while helping the tourism industry get back on its feet.  Someone has to do it, why not me

[Montse]

Absolutely!!! Count me and my husband in. We are healthy and ready to help out. Really desire for cruise ships to resume operation.

[Lyss]

A cruise! I sure could use some time on the open water and away from my home(Texas)  for a while.  Please contact me .

[bhageerah]

In a heartbeat, I can assure you that I know that I have less of a chance of contacting it onboard that ship than I would  at work.  We had several patients with it today, so I would gladly love to be able to have the benefit of being on a cruise and testing out the new things that they are trying to initiate! All I ask is give me time to pack and get to the port!!

[TrevorPerkins]

Yes, I would love to test out the procedures because these could last a lot longer than what's predicted. As someone who has never been on a cruise before in my life (was supposed to but couldn't make it down due to a storm) I would think they would need volunteers of all people who have been on many cruises to the people who have never stepped foot on a ship, to make sure that the procedures they are doing are easy to follow for anyone and the tasks that need to be done could be done by anyone regardless of how much the person has travelled.

[maforte40]

I have been cruising for 10 years (2-3 cruises a year) and I want back out on the high seas. If you live in fear you are not living. Just do what is asked of you to keep everyone safe and live to the fullest, as we can right now.

I'm all in as a volunteer as some of my friends are too they cruise with me. 

 

[locococomama]

Our entire family would be up for a test cruise. There are 5 of us (kids are adults) and we are frequent cruisers aon RCCL and Celebrity. Hope to hear from you to sign up! None of us are scared of COVID and with our vast cruise experience (some up to 12), we are savvy to the needs to cruisers in all types of circumstances. We've had 2 cruises cancelled on us this year and are ready to go whenever cruising starts up again!

[LuckeyGirl]

Yes. I would be happy to volunteer. Please email me!

[Copycatasa]

I'd love to volunteer.  Where do I sign up?
