There are no envelopes for the suite assistants so if you want to give them something you have to do it personally. Suite assistance are basically in a teraining program to one day have an attendents positon thus the salary.

    Oh, and Neal, if you want ice below the suite level you now have to ask for it. Another cost saving move.

    Yes some wil stop sailing because of these kinds of decisions by the lines. I also suspect the rising cost of everyday needs will have an effect on those willing to part with hard earned cash for a vacation. The cruise price increases that will be coming soon won't help either but hey, we have to keep the stockholders happy and increase the executive saleries.

    Forget the stockholders, they are there only to rubber stamp (most of the stockhoders these days are big investment firms, anyway) the salaries and bennies of the top execs.

    Well since you said it I will agree Neal. Hum, so does this explain why Fain makes more than Arinson? And here I though it was just because he had bigger ships.
