👋 Hello | My First Two Weeks Onboard

[@davidwilson5405]

We were on this ship at the same time this video was made. Our family had a very good experience for our first cruise. The Staff, the room, the food was the best. Great memories for a long time.

[@monikaluis]

OMG Chris! that was the BEST catch-up EVER!!! We were so emotional after you both left... We cannot wait until we see each other again!!! Thank you for your kindness, motivation, support, but most importantly... your FRIENDSHIP! Looking forward to meet you again around this small world!!!

[@laplet8262]

Hi Monika and Luis! I have just subscribed to your channel after seeing you in Chris's blog. Thank you, Chris, for placing their link in the blog description.

[@jimbo160aaaa]

We were in Quantum of the Seas in 2015 she was brand new had a great time. We were on The North Star that went out over the ocean as we sailed, we also rode on the bumper cars. Delicious food wonderful ship, had a great time!!😊

[@dman8984]

You should have called when you were in Juneau, I could have got you guys up Mt. Roberts on the Goldbelt Tram.

[@l.ls.8890]

Chris you are having the prime of your life adventure. Getting jetted across America to Alaska, having private conveyance pick you up and going to a new ship mid voyage. This shows the faith RC has in you when needed in a pinch. As one of your earnest followers this was not your first mid voyage rodeo.

[@lw3158]

Great and detailed video, Chris, no one does this as good as you do. Thanks!! And regarding moving to a shared cabin, you are always so positive even when disappointed.

[@mattconstance2196]

Hi Chris are you onboard for the Australian Season?

[@marcelinomartinez2201]

You are the best buddy. Enjoy every moment of life the way u do. God bless you

[@beachedntexas9281]

Do the life boats have AC or circulating air? I notice the life boats on celebrity ships look very luxurious.

[@eminiarvii]

Yes Chris…The Vlog Must go On!!! this is exciting as usual…waiting for more🚢🙂

[@bethgintx]

I am booked for Alaska on Quantum next August! After seeing your vlog, I am glad I chose this ship. Looking forward to your Asia content.

[@michelleluvbeachsunsets4529]

Loved this vlog! Have a great contract!

[@patriciaparker162]

I love this ship. Will be on it again in February for my niece's birthday.

[@richardstrick]

It was nice meeting you on the Utopia last week. Which you well on the Quantum. I wish RCL would make you their brand ambassador and fly you first class between contracts.

[@macncheesymom9209]

I am liking the longer vlogs! It is nice to see what goes on with all of the staff on a cruise ship! Keep up the great work!

[@larryfinkel4102]

My cousin is going to be on the Quantum of the Seas the middle of October. I told her to come say hello to you. I have followed you for a number of years

[@anneim7853]

Chris, invest in one of those warm light weight touchscreen gloves🧤 it will keep your hands comfy. It seems like just yesterday you were in Alaska. It is still fresh in my mind. I watched so many of your Alaska / Victoria videos from your last contract in Alaska. You helped me a lot to prepare for my cruise on the same ship. I remember seeing you at the Casino, but wasn’t able to say “hello.” Please rest well and enjoy your time on Quantum of the seas. I can’t wait for both Ovation and Quantum to arrive to San Pedro, California for their Mexico contract. Hopefully, you can set sail from here.

[@alishamaryleerichardson-go2106]

Awesome ~~ Thanks again for another great video~

[@HMundies]

I was on Quantum 1st sailing!!

[@arlenemaxwellcopeland1644]

Not only are your videos interesting, they're educational. Each time, you teach me something new! Even how to make a bed in tight spaces. I've been making my own bed since I was a child, but I've never had to do one in such tight quarters! I'd like to see how you get the bottom sheet on too. Interesting the differences between the ship classes. I've read about them, but it didn't stick until you explained bit by bit with references. Esplanade vs promenade! I've only been on Harmony, Mariner, and soon, on Wonder of the Seas. The theater looks like on Mariner.

[@annbartolotta7598]

Double OMG ! Great Vlog. It is great that we get to live vicarious thru your VLOGS. Please keep up the daily life of Chris Wong. How cool is it that you get to meet up with previous workers. And the thing about you is that you put out the effort to reconnect with them. We all appreciate it so very much. And for those like myself can't get to the places you get to experience. Kudos to you for getting that very special way to work and travel. Stay safe and will look for you daily.

[@rickinnes]

Really enjoyed this video. So cool to see your close friendships really like this long form.

[@constancecook-cruisetravel1166]

Such a great video I love following you thank you so much for all that you do🎉❤

[@CarolOleksy]

Good luck on your next job on Quantum of the Seas💕

[@andrewsabol5045]

We enjoyed your update Chris, Alaska looks cold. Looking forward to your next videos. 👍

[@terrishaw7640]

Glad to see you are not having better weather in Alaska than we had a couple of weeks ago on Radiance. Can’t wait to see the Asia ports. Have a great crossing.

[@robertamastraccio8346]

Oh man, I missed you by a month. Oh well, maybe next time. My husband does well in the cruise casinos, I do not, lol. We were on the Quantum 8/19-26. The Asia food restaurant was excellent! We hit that a couple of times. We had perfect weather in Alaska and Victoria. Love your videos, safe travels.

[@debbiekeltz-wolk7691]

That was a great video to watch.

[@bingobango9007]

Gonna be on the repositioning cruise to Japan in a week and am extremely excited! Maybe ill see you and say hi!

[@KrisTina-friendship]

Hi Chris. Love your vlog. Lots of interesting content and variety. Tons of activity going on with you. I've flown to a lot of Airports but never Atlanta. Love the food you had there. Looks so delicious. Very interesting looking airport in Atlanta. Wow!! the experiences and adventures you are going through. Alaska!!!. I've never done an Alaskan cruise. Drove to Alaska from Ontario, camping along the way. Took 2 months there and home again. We did an Antarctica cruise in 2014 out of Buenos Aires right down to Elephant Island where Shackleton, a British explorer, and his men were stranded over 100 years ago. Quite the experiences Perhaps in the future you will be doing a contract on ship going on an Antarctica cruise. Thanks for sharing everything from your cabin tour (as you usually do), tour of the ship and lifeboat experience. A sea of yellow going on there from the life preservers. Spectacular ship you are on Quantum of The Seas. Looking forward to your future vlogs of this ship. I love your enthusiasm. I live in Canada. It's the best. Was born in Northern UK, Littleborough. Parents came to Canada when I was 9 years old. The best thing to happen. I love it. Have travelled via vehicle from Ontario to west coast B.C.and ferry to Victoria twice. And travelled to East Coast twice via vehicle minus Newfoundland. Isn't Victoria gorgeous!! So heartwarming to see you meet up with previous crew nember friends. I was so excited for you.❤

[@robertc1982]

Chris great video !! Can’t wait for all the new content coming up !!

[@Santiago-in1xf]

OMG, I'm gonna be on that Pacific crossing. I figured you would be on the Utopia for your whole assignment. This is a nice surprise.

[@julesjules1565]

Thank you, Chris.👍👍❤❤

[@kristypaul8067]

The ship is absolutely stunning Chris can't wait to see the new vlogs Chris ❤

[@dianeboyhan1481]

Was so nice getting to meet you last week! Can't wait to see your travels in Japan. You will love it!

[@whale5646]

OMG Chris i am so jealous that you are in Alaska. You definitely need to try Wonderland. I had the egg in the basket. the nest is made out of some type of noodle. The Panda Bear was on Ovation, Thanks for sharing Alaska with us. Hope to see you again soon. DODIE

[@stefaniew3]

Quantum is my favorite ship layout I've sailed on out of 10 different ships and 4 cruise lines ❤

[@stevefisher4014]

Hey Chris, It's pronounced like skuner or skooner. Not Shooner. Hope this helps.

[@sjones4712]

Great Content Chris! I really enjoyed this vlog!

[@stephendoane1093]

Great content Chris. My wife and I traveled to Alaska on Quantum a couple of years ago. Nice ship.

[@kathyoliva6966]

Thank you Chris! Great video!

[@pware9643]

Will see you soon for the trans pacific.. Is RCCL like Celebrity where one gets free drinks while gambling ? Just curious. Isn't the Quantum going into dry dock somewhere in asia?

[@heideleskun1163]

Try the bus trip for the white pass. Its totally different and we loved it.

[@discofun]

Love that P.F. Chang's up the escalator in ATL. Great plane spotting at the entrance. Best restaurant in the airport is 'One Flew South' in E Terminal.

[@JKKTravels]

Great vlog! Looking forward to hopefully seeing you next week en route to Japan 🎉

[@PinkHawk191]

I just went to the east coast of Canada on the Norwegian Sky. It was a wonderful trip! I got to see so much. I got to see the Canadian Fjords. That was the highlight of my trip. The first day was easy since we left from my home port. I could see my home from the windows on the ship where we were eating lunch.

[@jimj2839]

Can you give us a link to your friends Monica and Luis cruise blog?

[@jeremychoo934]

Very nice, you'll be doing the trans-Pacific repositioning cruise to Australia!

[@richardvandenarend8149]

What a great contract to have ahead of you. Question.... as a casino host, do you prefer the larger casinos of the Icon or Oasis class ships or the smaller casinos of the Quantum or Freedom class ships?

[@yveh4586]

Love seeing activities such as drill and crew talent show. Awesome blog

[@JennyCruiseCommander]

I was on Quantum exactly one year ago at this time. Too bad we didn’t get to see you. Nice you were seeing Sitka with no rain - it was literally pouring down rain when we were there and walking around. Enjoy it!

[@Anyk572]

Welcome to beautiful Victoria BC Fyi, people are actually living full-time in the float homes at Fisherman Wharf

[@TerriCarper]

So you are now in Alaska, I'm going to be on Radiance Next August. I see you have a winter coat on. What weight would you suggest. Medium or the heavy weight?

[@carolekendell3922]

I love Quantum of the Seas, sailing out of Brisbane next year. I’ve sailed on Ovation of the Seas from Sydney and I am looking forward to Anthem of the Seas at the end of 2025. Beautiful ships, wonderful crew every time I’ve sailed with them. After following you for several years it will be lovely to meet you next March. Happy sailing 😊

[@yogerke]

Love wonderland!

[@jillfallon8497]

Hi Chris, love your vlogs, we've been watching you since the beginning. How long are you on Quantum for? Are you going to be on board and cruising to Australia?

[@joesimeao7611]

Another great vlog Chris best wishes and safe travels

[@mikee7934]

Excellent Chris!

[@teresamiller5412]

On your transit, are you going to Moorea? If you do see if you can book swimming with humpback whales, it’s incredible!

[@ritaroessler3465]

I been on Odyssey of sea animal is pink panther Have fun adventure!!!

[@charlottedowns6652]

Great vlog Chris !

[@stevenz2234]

Beautiful..Keep up thre great V-Logs

[@RobbieMathieson]

Hey Chris, you say you're on Quantum for 6/7 months, when does your contract end? Would love to meet you when I''m onboard on 18th March

[@hapster85]

That was Mt Roberts in Juneau with the cable lift.

[@FelixTorres-wl5vt]

Was on Quantum 2 years ago, loved it

[@JaniceSlater-m9o]

See in australia in January 4 on quatiumoftheseas

[@tonyfoulkes9289]

Fabulous video. Are you , ship coming to Auckland new Zealand. Over our summer period. Maungaturoto, New Zealand.

[@U2FanHFX]

What an adventure to get there! See you in 1 week!

[@kchau-fw1yo]

Welcome back to Canada Chris. Love the vlog

[@robhardie9934]

Great video as usual, Chris. Hopefully we can meet onboard during our cruise from Singapore to Brisbane in November. Enjoy your time working through this contract.

[@Tarrbot]

I just got off of QOTS 3 weeks ago. It was my first cruise also. I have another 5 cruises booked at this point. Would loved to have seen you in the casino. Thank you for your content and updates. I absolutely loved the crew on QOTS and hope to see them again someday soon.

[@Tarrbot]

Also, I know that cafe at the end in Juneau. I sat there early one morning (we missed Skagway and had a full day in Juneau). It is a great little coffee shop.

[@panamorena4704]

Marvelous Chris. What is the name of the Asian restaurant?

[@MilenaSimpson]

Where in Fishersmen wharf you got your dinner? Thanks.

[@nonirosie]

We were on Quantum in March for our honeymoon and going on her again for a family cruise in Feb 2025! I hope you can document dry dock for us. And hopefully we can come and meet you in 5 months!

[@debbief2882]

Goid luck on your new contract. It felt stange to you to board during a sailing, but I find it difficult should be acceptable as the entertainment often boards mid cruise, and you are very entertaining!

[@firelaw223]

Chris it was a great surprise meeting you on the ship this past week.

[@Marvin-P]

Cat is the animal on Odyssey. Nice to see another VLOG!

[@Partymafia77]

How often do y'all have to do these drills?

[@JennyCruiseCommander]

FYI - The Wonderland restaurants are much larger and much nicer visually on the Oasis class ships. You need to at least walk around one the next time you’re on one of the Oasis class ships.

[@shonnie089]

Can't wait for Japan!

[@katiekendrick8866]

I have not done a quantum class ships yet!

[@mysterymayhem7020]

You have been spoiled by beautifully warm Caribbean weather, welcome back to the cold. Hope you packed accordingly.

[@christinav3619]

It’s been two years already since you left Alaska!!! Wow full circle.

[@didid7880]

Enjoy Wonderland, my favorite restaurant!!

[@Danno1983]

@Chris Wong Anthem Of The Seas it's Gigi nicknamed Gary as named by Solent Ship's shipmates

[@deeess3305]

the inner harbour is beautiful

[@Christinecruises]

We were just on that in June.

[@Americanallday]

We went to Wonderland on Splendor, it was ok. Beautiful but the food was not our thing.

[@nickclark6180]

Was a pleasure to meet you in person on the quantum, I thought the white pass train trip in Skagway was pretty good.

[@Deborah-s9t]

I've taken a flight from Seattle a few years ago. Alaska airlines is a great airline. Have a fantastic day. Have a great contract, God Bless

[@dearmepa1]

What is the name of the Asian restaurant again and was it in Skagway?

[@riverarm]

Was that Tornado Tania in the talent show?

[@brandonthailand2062]

I sailed Quantum out of Shianghai in 2019.

[@oceanman-o9i]

Great vlog champ. See ya in December What size tee -shirt is Chris?? For gift purposes.

[@rifkymasri1065]

It was wonderful to see again Felicia the bear!

[@honeybeetee]

Could you stand more still when you film. It's wobbly and makes me sea sick lol

[@nonirosie]

I much prefer 15-20min vlogs instead of these long ones

[@chrism4432]

mixed reviews for Wonderland makes sense - its food is adventurous and that concept needs to be your vibe .. and it has a touch of a creepy factor with the Mad Hatter character.

[@laureen2990]

Glad you like Victoria! You have some followers here

[@AnthonyHologounis96]

Have fun
