    1. Good evening,my name’s are Terry am asking on behave of a friend,she was fired due to she sold a drink to a guest who never seemed drunk,but later guest fall on his way to stateroom,so she became a victim of selling to a guest who was already drunk.My question is can she be re hired after a period of time and after how long can she request to rejoin the company?

      1. That is a very serious offense you have described.
        Every bartender gets a training where they talk in details about legal consequences of selling an alcohol to a visibly inebriated guest.
        She should have called security if he was assertive. There is no coming back from that. That particular guest will happily file a lawsuit against the company and cost them pretty penny.
        However, there is more to the cruise industry that just Celebrity … if you know what I mean …

  1. Dear admin i have concern about rehirerequest im almost 1 year off the fleet and i work at celebrity cruise..i have schedule may 22 2018 but saddenlly its been cancelled due to medical release.now when i finish medical and all the pending documemts and i email my scheduler that i already fit to work and finish all my pendings documents and my scheduler reply me that i been rehire therefore i email the rehire team and i tell them the reason why my schedule been cancel in may 22 2018 bacuse of due medical late release then the rehire team reply my email and said.

    1. Dear admin,I’ve been away from.the fleet since February 2018, I would like to take a chance again to Rejoin the company.would you please help me,I am ready to arrange my papers,if you let me to.please notify me.

          1. Dear admin
            I was a pullmantur crew after covide I got offer letter for celebrity but now they r response me

          2. I am confused.
            What kind of offer letter did you get?
            Why would Celebrity send you offer out of blue? Do they know you by reputation or you have applied for a job there?

        1. Hi my contract was terminated more than six months due to zero tolerance,It was Christmas day and I was found drunk and my alcohol percentage was more than the policy allowed us. Now is it possible for me to get hired again.

          1. Sorry, not possible, but you can apply to other cruise line company.
            There is many more cruise line companies in the world than just Royal.

        2. Hello good Day I am JUFEL BONAO Ive been interviewed last November 11 2023 in Sheraton hotel Manila one of your staff PRINCESS ANURAN my interviewer told me to email here for REHIRED this is my unique ID# 668356 I can’t open my old ctract and I can’t open my old Gmail account

          1. Mr JUFEL BONAO, you have issues.

            1. You claim you have been interviewed last November 11 2023? You mean this November? It can not be last. It still is. Today is 23rd.
            2. I assure you I don’t have any staff member by name PRINCESS ANURAN. Or Princess is a title?
            3. If that person asked you to apply for rehire, it means you have worked for Princess before. What happened? Resigned? Got fired? Please tell us more.
            you may want to educate yourself more on the subject of Princess Cruises rehire here: https://www.inozemstvo-posao.com/crewforum/princess-cruises-rehire/
            4. Why is your Gmail account old? You have NEW and OLD? Two accounts on Google? That is illegal. Why can you not open it? Forgot password?

            Unfortunately, Mr JUFEL BONAO, you just have too many issues ..

    2. My name is Mark prince was part of Royal Caribbean cruise I just want to no if I can be rehire

    3. good evening admin
      I’d like to let you know that ive been home for 5months now since i submitted my resignation letter on march 5,2019 .it,s the same day of my signed off date,I was in Radiance of the seas.now i’m ready to rejoining the ship of Rccl again.I’ve sent an email to the scheduler&rehirerequest@rccl.com.till now i’ve got yet any reply.do i need for another month to rejoin?looking forward to have yr soonest reply.many thank

      1. If you resigned, they will not take you back. Why would they? So you can resign again whenever you feel like?

  2. I was medically disembark in February 2018, local doctor said am fit for duty,however carnival uk, declared me as fit for duty in August 2018,then requested me to get a new seafarers certificate no later than the 4th of September 2018, I get it,then send it off to them, haven’t heard any word from the company since..do you think I have much longer to wait need as they gave me the deadline by 4th to sent the certificate n I did.

  3. I was about one week to finish my contract and I was dismissed because zero tolerance alcohol policy , my concern is that it was personal and the security officer literally was hunting me, we never liked me. Even I wasn’t on duty and at the next day I started to work at 5pm, basically I wasn’t working and didn’t make any disturb when he called me. I was a new hire and in my master hearing the capitan wasn’t even there. Nobody let me to explain anything and just made me sign the dismissal. My question is that is there a way to
    Talk with somebody about my case ? I never had a issue on my 8 months contract at all and I have witnesses who were there. Or do they review the case to see is there is a chance to be rehired ?

      1. What I meant is took a long vacation.
        While waiting for another six months,what is the possibilities of applying to other partners like azamara or pullmantur.

  4. Dear ADM. I am an ex-crew member , I was on board of Oasis of the seas working as a galley steward. During my two months vacation I was enduring a family problem where my wife passed away in an accident. From that moment I couldn’t get in touch with my scheduler to explain my case. Every time I send an email I have no answer. Could you please tell me what do ? Thanks in advance.

  5. Hi Admin,

    I Just need to check if my flight is booked and everything is OK to join my assisngment and one day before i received a email of cancellation due to operational need , may i know the reason and how soon i can get new assignment

  6. I worked on celebrity cruise line in 2012 but want on maturity leave after 6 years i want to return is this possible

  7. Hi Admin I’m a past Royal Caribbean crew member resigned and now wants to return after 10yrs is it possible?.

  8. I was medical disembark on 28 Jan 2019 and I get all my fit to work on March 9 but as per Rccl they are the one who decide if am fit or not even the doctor say so and they said am not eligible to come back to the ship

        1. The cruise industry does not like people who go for emergencies. They don’t need to explain their reasons. If you go for emergency, it is great opportunity for company to get rid of you. Often they say they would take you back as soon as doctor clear, but that’s just lies.

      1. Hi admin , I was working for Royal Caribbean as waiter sinced 2018 to April 22 , I had to resigned cause urgent issue at home with my family, and currently I was sending the email to the rehire team want to come back twice they said I’m not eligible to rehire again I wish that I have good news for you in future ,we wish you get better good for your job in future, do I have no chance to come back?

        1. Obviously they checked your work performance history and they did not like what they have seen.
          You should try another company.

  9. I was fired due to late reporting of diarrhea.. No written warning since first contract, good record is there a chance to get hired by rrcl?

  10. Hi Admin. Im a past crew member in Royal Caribbean. 538885 is my unique ID. Its been 3 years since i resign in the company. My last vessel was Voyager of the Seas. Is it possible to get back in the company?

  11. I have resigned from Royal Caribbean for personal reasons. My hr manager guarantee me I could come back in 12 months, I ve sent a email to rehire team and they reply twice that they are checking my records and will let me know. how long it will take to get the New Loe?

    1. It can take a very very long time. Nobody knows how often they check previous employee records, but it is safe to assume that it happens once or twice per year. Your chances for sooner reply are probably better if they badly need crew on your position.

        1. Well, I don’t know what to say. Perhaps they don’t like the fact you resigned. They are likely to chose among 50 or more other nationalities …

        2. Hi admin..i would like to ask
          1. if a crew member gets terminated becz of zero tolerance, is there any chances to get job in another cruise line. If so..is there any way that the new employer finds out about the termination..even if we don’t mention to them??
          2.did the new employer have some ways to do some background check/verification with our previous cruise company.

      1. Good day admin, admin I want to know if I have a chance to come back.thank you so much.

  17. Hello Crew Forum Admin! I just want to ask, is it possible to transfer in royal if i will resign in azamara?. I’m a newly hired in azamara and i was suppose to join in azamara last march 2020. but unfortunately they cancelled my flight, and contract. I want to transfer in royal. but i don’t know how to resign in azamara. is there any email? so i can send my resignation to them. Thank You.

    1. You don’t need to resign anywhere, just go for another company, whichever you like.

  18. Hello i want to come back ….the HR terminated me as i refused to pay my ticket because of an emergency back home…..almost 1 year ….since am home so how can i get back

  19. Good day, ma’m sir i’m marioben m. rivera a crew member for 15 years as a riding crew and my I-D no.# 303156 please, kindly me to come back to rccl as ah riding crew. i retire last november 2020

  20. I refused to pay ticket because no money so how can it be a fair deal ….i dont think its fair…..it was an emergency i think company should have cooperate with every crew member in this situation

    1. When you leave company whenever you want, it is a breach of contract.
      According to your contract, you are not authorized to declare emergency, but the company is.
      They go about it in a very familiar procedure. It is described in your contract.
      Same goes for everyone in the real world. If I declare myself to be a princess, am I really a princess?

  21. I know am not a princess but still…i was a new comer….i made a mistake…..i broke my contract……that was my fault…still i humbly request the company to give one last chance atleast….

  22. hi admin
    i worked for rccl for 13 yrs..and i was terminated due to zero tolerance problem..will i be able to be rehired if i send an email. I know this is a one drop in million ocean move but i want to took the chance to rejoin.

  24. Good day admin in 2005 I was spat upon by a coworker and reported the incident. At the time I taught they were taking to long to address this specific incident. At least over six weeks. Therefore I wrote directly to the Hotel director and was fired at the end of that cruise for not going through the chain of command
    I will like to know if there is any possibility that I can be rehired At RCCL.

  25. Good day admin fifteen years ago I was fired for performance. Not for my work which has always been impeccable. It was for a letter which I wrote directly to the Hotel manager about an incident that happened to me. A few days later I had a performance review and fired for not going through the chain of command.
    Is there a way to be rehire through an upcoming interview at a job fair. Thank you

  26. Good day sir/madam I been working with rccl for the pass 10yr but resign after the pandemic because of was not too sure how things will work out I run through some financial problem that had was to resign to get some money to pay my bill I am asking if there is anyway I can rehire back as a assistant waiter please let me know what to do from here.thank you ID 618315

  27. Dear Crew forums

    I was involved in a argument I was fired for violence and I would like to be rehired I didn’t appeal on my case within the period of 10 days

    1. Cruise industry does not tolerate any kind of aggression or violence.
      Once you show any signs of those, you are doomed. It is understandable, since everything can be solved in peaceful manner, and cruise ship is not a place where one should be allowed to go on a rampage. It is hospitality industry, no aggression is tolerated. I know of some employees who are fired for not smiling enough, let alone those who raise voice or fist.

  28. Hello good day I had resigned because due to my mother health condition yo be three for my mom but now I would like to rehire from the company

  29. Hello good day what is the next procedure should I follow please guide me accordingly .To add to my statement my C1d visa is expiring on the 22 of September 2022 and would need necessary information from the company thanks in advance.

        1. Crew office issues every crew member a letter of employment which he/she uses, along with a new contract, to get a c1/d visa from the US embassy.
          Where is your letter of employment? Where is your contract?

  30. I had been dismissed by RCCL Master on the Basis of certain allegation of unwelcomed touching and harassment by a new hire girl ,I have put an appeal against the decision but the result came out to be negative for me ,what we think on this is there an opportunity for me to get re-hired

    1. To get re-hired for what reason?
      When you got fired, there was a reason. Now when you want to be rehired, there should also be reason why.
      But even if the reason is very very good, you will not be rehired, not now and not in 10 years from now. That is how firing works.

      1. Hello good day I have acsses to my RCL just that I resigned in 2017 and I ask to be rehire but no response or arrangement are being made

        1. So what is the point of talking about your C1d visa if you said you resigned in 2017?
          unless you get reply to your rehire request, cruise line doesn’t care about your visa.

  31. Good day to everyone. Ive been with the company quiet long time.my unique ID 067571.i would like to work rccl again, it is nice to work with.

  32. I was hired my RCCL in 2022 December and got my LOE for 2023 February 10 after that I that I got a mail that due to operational reason my LOE is cancelled after that I haven’t received any update till today neither I can reapply or I got reimbursement.
    I have tried to reach the hiring buy mail but there is no reply

    Hopefully I will get some answer here
    Thank you
