Any April 1 fake cruise news rumors jokes stories

In a groundbreaking new move, Celebrity Cruises have announced a plan to cut labor costs by establishing the first prisons onboard their ships, following special permission from Florida's Governor Rick Scott to house Floridian prisoners convicted of a variety of crimes, although the line is refusing to allow rapists or murderers on its ships out of safety for its passengers. The prisoners will perform menial tasks around the ship, including cleaning staterooms and public areas, washing dishes and mowing the grass on the Lawn Clubs found onboard the line's Solstice-class ships. They will be housed in former crew accommodations and given exercise hours in a special, brand-new indoor sports facility.

 

Governor Scott called the move "win-win", saying that "In a time when Florida needs to be cutting costs any way it can, this initiative will remove prisoners from crowded penitentiaries and put them to work while helping Celebrity to provide cheaper vacations to its passengers." Joining several other major companies in putting prisoners to work, the line will be able to pay prisoners a fraction of what it pays its regular crew members. A Celebrity spokesman called it a "great idea" and said that the move will not affect the quality of service on Celebrity, as positions like dining room waiters, suite butlers and front desk staff will still be filled by regular crew members. The spokesman said that the program, which will be pioneered on Celebrity Century, will cut costs for passengers and attract new guests. He refused to say, however, whether sister line Royal Caribbean International will also employ state prisoners.

 

Following suit, Norwegian Cruise Line announced a similar program for Hawaiian state prisoners on its Pride of America, allowing it to continue employing an all-American crew as per the requirements of a U.S.-flagged ship, while saving money tremendously. "This is cheaper than an all-foreign crew" said a NCL executive. "I only wish we'd thought of this sooner."

 

HAHA! Good one.
