what do the CREW AREAS look like on Utopia of the Seas?🚨 hangout areas, bars, laundry, hair salon?!

[@jbauth]

thought it would be fun to switch it up for todays video as opposed to my usual vlogs!! have a great weekend ❤

[@michellewatt3630]

I'm open to seeing everything on the ship. I have never and probably never will be able to take a cruise so this is all I will be able to see through. Thanks for the vids dear

[@kriskay6]

Loved it! Thanks!

[@jennifertam3165]

This was so interesting to see! I would love to see interviews or “A Day in the Life of…” of staff from other departments. As a nurse, I’m very interested to see how the medical team works.

[@Sarahrollinger]

Yay! I suggested this on a previous video! Thank you for taking the time to film and share 😊

[@jbauth]

🫶🏼

[@designdoctor247]

4:13 GO ROYAL!!!! this is awesome!!!....soooooo happy to see you treating your crew well!!!💫💫💫💫💫

[@allisonj4531]

This was a fun switch up from the vlog! I recognized a lot of areas from your usual videos but saw some new ones too. Great video as always Jordan!

[@walkerbunch06]

I would love to see interviews with crew members of different areas of the ship-different jobs that are necessary on cruises. Cruising As Crew (Lucy) did these years ago when she was on Virgin ships and they were so interesting to me! Love your content & channel. Your videos are incredible!

[@designdoctor247]

agree ... the HR and laundry staff sound interesting to me...i do not even know why but the staff i never get to see ...even the staff that wash the dishes and work in the crew coffee shop seem mysterious

[@bettyditillo1425]

I just happened on your channel and am so glad I did. I have been a figure skating fanatic for many many years and it is so nice to listen to you. It’s extra special because you are on a cruise ship and I am a frequent cruise and always fascinated with crew life. Looking forward to more videos!

[@chrisscheig8836]

I sailed Utopia at the end of September 2024. The ice show was amazing-it was the best Ice show I've seen yet. Thank you for sharing your video with us. I look forward to your next blog.

[@QuadfidenceSteph.]

So glad to see how you have been able to bulk content where we get new videos alllll the time ❤❤❤❤ hope you’re having fun at the wedding

[@trinbagoroj]

Are crew members allowed to use the pool around the ship and have special hours or they only allowed to go to the beach?

[@monicapappas5567]

I was on Utopia last week (looks like when you filmed this) and my room was overlooking the helipad! Such a cool spot, I saw a ton of crew members out there every morning and evening. Was hoping I would get to run into you! Saw the show and you did amazing! Thanks for sharing this video!! :)

[@Deborah-s9t]

I've always wanted to know what the crew areas look like, and it's really cool to see them

[@Cameron.001]

I just got off an hour or so ago… The Utopia of the Seas was AMAZING! Especially “Youtopia.” Thank you so much to all the crew onboard and thank you specifically for the ice show, it is so so so good. Keep up the great work onboard, and I hope to be back soon!

[@andrewgross4445]

Thank you for giving us this glimpse behind the scenes!

[@jasonlizotte4007]

Thank you for taking us around the crew areas. Answered many questions I have had each time I have been on a cruise ship. I hope to hear on your channel how the recent storm impacted on your ship and its 4 and 3 day cruises... Thank you so much and looking forward to your next video.

[@MsJessie1963]

This is so interesting and I just love your vlogs. Think about being a creator of vlogs when your skating days are over- you are incredibly talented and can make any subject fascinating! ❤

[@galina9691]

Hi Jordan, great video as usual 😊. What deck is your cabin on? Does the crue cabins run thru the whole deck like passenger cabins?

[@ruthbickerstaffe1915]

Very interesting and very nice that the Cruise Company treats you so well. Loved to hear how well you can see the stars at night when at sea.🌠🌌🌊🌊

[@Mindyscraftsandcash]

Loved this! Next I would love an interview with your parents! I’d like to hear about your mom’s skating life, how your folks met etc!

[@michellewatt3630]

Dang another video so close together. Awesome Jordan thanks

[@JenKnee423]

Loved this video. Are you able to do a bridge tour? That would be real cool and interesting to see.

[@beckyhalvorsen2126]

I thought this was very interesting. As someone who likes to go on cruises it was interesting to see what is available for the crew. Thank you for sharing.

[@elainebeech7083]

Interesting video Jordan, love having a look around. Maybe have a look in the shops next time, that's if you can. Hope you're well. Stay safe ❤ Elaine xx

[@lalasteen3860]

Jordan, what deck(s) are the crew cabins on? Also how many cabins are there for crew and officers? Thanks!

[@amyhamilton8127]

Loved the vlog, thank you for showing us the crew areas! Would love to see another vlog of the ship, do you get to go on the water slide? Thanks!

[@kaylal2752]

I’d love to see how you get to studio B. Like a walk through! Also which decks are below the water?

[@louisetvancouver6161]

This was super cool to watch and find out about areas I didn’t know existed 😊 Have a great weekend 🎉

[@tduck828]

Love this video! Cool to see areas we cant access!

[@deniseurbain8511]

I enjoyed this :) it was fun seeing all the crew areas!

[@NDSeaSea]

I love this! If you haven’t already done one, maybe a vid on your fav and least fav costumes you have ever worn and why.

[@catinedington5411]

Loved this, so intetesting!

[@SleeplessNeo]

Great video!! I just thought of a new idea - I’d love to know your favorite places to go to for the frequent ports like Nassau, Cozumel, etc!!

[@debbiekeltz-wolk7691]

That was an interesting vlog. On my 1st cruise I was a guest of a crew member who worked in the spa. I remember having to sign paperwork and meet his manager when I arrived.

[@dianathefiberfan]

If I was 40 years younger I think it would be fun to be a crew member on a cruise ship and be able to see the world while getting paid. Enjoy the rest of your contract.

[@teresalyn1678]

Great video so interesting. You are a great ambassador for RC.

[@designdoctor247]

for sure!!! they are BLESSED to employee her😊

[@rickyt3961]

Thanks Jordan! 🏝️🚢⛸️

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

Great idea for a video, Jordan!!!

[@christinawrobel4869]

Could you explain the difference between crew and staff.i sort of know but im sure there are different rules for each. How do you track your hours? Obviously, performance time, but what about parade and practice time. It's not like an office job where you log in on a computer or badge at an entrance to the building. Enjoyed this video. Thank you.

[@marciebateman2451]

Might not be helpful but I sure someone said crew is a guest facing job and staff is someone who isn’t staff facing like chef, guest laundry and things like that but I’m not 100% sure. Xx

[@fionacharrington7709]

Geez Jordan - 5 months ALREADY 😮😮😮😮Where did that time go?! Not long to go & you’ll be home celebrating the holidays 🎉😊❤

[@WeezieLou]

This was a cool video - thanks for showing areas of a ship that most people wouldn’t get to see.

[@kristinlueb5606]

Love this, recently i was cruising and i could see part of the crew area while walking around and i was curious if you liked the areas. I know you played pool alot with Callum but with him at home is it a place you still hang often?

[@lindapeterson3613]

So interesting. Those hairclips look like an obstacle course for your roommate 😂

[@michellestrunk542]

You probably already know this...but, just in case... This video is listed on the Yahoo news feed articles on the Google homepage. Apparently, Come Cruise With Me website featured it and Yahoo linked it. I think that's pretty cool. I already knew you are a star. But, to be scrolling thru and have you pop up -- that proves it. 😉 Best wishes always to you!

[@alexiswoods4327]

I’ve wondered 🙋🏻‍♀️ There seems to be a good amount of spaces for the crew Love watching your vlogs 🫶

[@dustinherrmann2009]

Hey Jordan, love your videos. Are you able to show the bridge of the ship? Keep up the great work

[@toyawomble2810]

Hi Jordan, Using the guest gym, does it go by job positions even though it’s in your contract?

[@flyingcolorsponies]

The mess is so much bigger than the ones on your previous ships!! Wow!

[@angelabrown3994]

That was a really interesting tour. Thanks😄

[@CharlesPryor-ic9ek]

Well done video with super content! Thank you!

[@dabombdiggity46]

The windjammer definitely reminds me of the set up of a college dining hall! How often is it open/closed?

[@katieinman2305]

Pease update how you are doing since the storms and how they impacted those cruises?

[@christinac3279]

Does the crew that work in Java and the mess rotate to guest areas? Or are they hired solely to work the crew venue?

[@designdoctor247]

great question

[@marciebateman2451]

Ohhh I was thinking this too. Would love to know the answer to that xx

[@lauratroxel6072]

So interesting! What a great idea to share. Do you know why it’s called I-95? Why did they pick 95 for the number? 🤔

[@helenmarie9624]

So so interesting, thank you!

[@user-eg4jc3xr6d]

QUESTION - Haircuts - are they free or you just use the space once you find someone to do it? How do you schedule?

[@jbauth]

there’s a list of available hairstylists with this whatsapp #.. you can contact them for their availability ☺️

[@user-eg4jc3xr6d]

@@jbauth Thanks - great content BTW. Keep up the great work

[@Briyonna.]

ive always wondered!!! 🫣

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Hi Jordan how are you happy Friday afternoon and I just wanted to say you are amazing supporter happy fall day

[@ladydi8376]

Great and interesting!

[@RobertHansenRob]

Thanks for sharing. Did another skater come on board whilst you are at the wedding or do they leave your track out?

[@brentpayne4215]

Jordan my birthday 🎉 was October 6

[@travelfan0011]

I wish they would do breakfast for dinner on a night in the main dining room!

[@AKO-ONLINE]

yay first! And new video!

[@heatherhunt6305]

Hey thought of an idea for content. What about casual conversations with your friends who don't mind being on camera. Talk about funny stories you share etc.

[@ElsaLoui]

Great video ❤

[@TheNitBB]

Are drink prices reasonable in your staff bars?

[@jbauth]

yes!

[@LostinMayberry]

The crew areas look really nice but not terribly big. Do they get really crowded?

[@alisoncreswick3566]

What decks are crew cabins on?

[@barbaraampong5481]

Are u allowed to hang out with cruisers?

[@morenabustamante632]

lodi ja jaja 😂🎉🎉

[@soulsearcher9530]

I have super sensitive skin. If someone has a reaction to the soap crew laundry uses, can they wash the bedding themselves with their own soap?

[@jbauth]

yes of course!

[@93_noname]

Is food in the crew mess free for you?

[@kimdavis454]

So r u taking time off after ur contract? R u and Cal going to join each other on another ship?

[@brentpayne4215]

Hi Jordan I am Brent your videos have in spired me

[@jeannine1991]

Informative!

[@faleciahenry9646]

It seems the "performers," are living their best life, at least, you seem to be 😊 and that is AWESOME! However, I'm wondering, are those areas for "all" crew on board, if not, that's horrible (and it isnt your fault, I know)! I just want/hope those who do the low level jobs experience some pleasant, enjoyable perks like the performers because like yourself, they work very hard!

[@elizabeththompson1525]

I’d be sleeping if I’m not working the way the staff works so hard to make sure each guest is taken care of!! I think these areas are more for entertainment staff??

[@helpingkind]

In on of BryanJamesCruises early Utopia vlogs a woman who works in the spa asked him to do a video on it. Think it would be fun if you did a spa tour and maybe had a treatment done and documented it!

[@friezenfan]

That sounds like a great video idea.

[@Dwoww1568]

Yay ❤ 😊

[@Juliealeah]

What deck is your room and most crew rooms on?

[@jbauth]

won’t be sharing this info!

[@Juliealeah]

@@jbauth make sense! I just wonder how convenient it is to constantly go between these areas and your cabins. Hopefully no smart casual needed just to get breakfast

[@olgaraymond5656]

This may sound like an odd question but I genuinely don't know and I've always wondered.. are crew allowed to be pregnant while on contract? I have never seen any pregnant crew while I'm cruising 😆

[@lisastankiewicz1926]

How many crew on this ship?

[@pamelalugo1537]

💜

[@gailcreighton5484]

Nice content.

[@brentpayne4215]

I am 26 years vintage

[@barbarahayes3872]

Who was your understudy while you were off the ship? Do you understudy for any position?

[@jbauth]

wait for next vlog to find out 😊😉

[@Asmr.caribbean]

Is this allowed? I work for Disney Cruise Line and they make us sign a contract to not publicly show the crew and backstage areas.p

[@judyp4421]

The “real” I-95 goes from Maine to Miami.

[@jbauth]

of course haha

[@karengilsdorf9753]

❤

[@billangell3387]

I'm so disappointed because I thought for sure I would finally learn what COB stands for and actually see it. Other than that this was a great showing of the crew areas of the ship. I would love to see the officer's areas but I suppose they are off limits to normal crew people.

[@jimward7881]

1300 crew? I thought Oasis class had 2200 crew members. Thanks

[@jbauth]

omg… i must be losing my brain, i was thinking of crew stats for voyager class 🤣

[@brentpayne4215]

Do you go down the water slide s

[@tomcollins5112]

Please keep away from the booze, dear Jordan. You don't need it, you really don't. Thank you for making so many beautiful videos for us.

[@jbauth]

I am a grown adult, I really don’t need advice about alcohol. Thank you 😊

[@tomcollins5112]

@@jbauth I know you're grown but take it from an alcoholic, you're better off without it. I promise I will never bother you about this again dear Jordan. Take care, and keep making your wonderful videos.

[@rebeccalyons6557]

I found you a couple of months ago and have been watching ever since. You may have answered this question in the past, but have you ever been seasick on a rough seas cruise? How often in the past 5 years have you had to cancel the skating show because of rough seas? ⛸️

[@CinHK]

Thank you for the crew area overview 🛳️ ❤

[@diabeticnomad]

wait that’s not really where Royal theatre/studio b is is it? Tho dang should have done this more towards the beginning of the contract! 💜🫶🏻
