As a separate FYI, in order for cruise ships to make landfall in Antarctica they cannot have more than 500 passengers. I was on a Hurtigruten expedition cruise in February (MS Roald Amundsen, 294 passengers out of 500 max) and it was mind-blowingly amazing. We sailed past the Antarctic Circle and made landfall 8 days on both sides of the Antarctic peninsula. Friends on a Celebrity cruise sailed past for their one day of Antarctic experience, then went on to Chile.

And they are? Asking as someone who has done 20+ and hasn't managed to narrow the demographic down that narrowly.

How much time do you spend on your own doing vocal warmups or drills?

I have been on 20+ cruises, from the Med to Caribbean to Singapore to Antarctica, on everything from Hurtigruten to Carnival to Celebrity to Wind Star. In my experience the quality of vocalists has been extremely inconsistent. There were some on a Celebrity cruise who emptied the pool area when they took the stage. Meanwhile there was a pianist on a Carnival cruise who rivaled Billy Joel.

What do you, as a fellow professional, say or do when other performers are objectively bad?
