You will also help to escort shore tours that involve sales, and act as host or hostess at tables for returning passengers and at guest parties.

Experience is required in a six-star luxury environment, sales skills, and possible Travel Agency experience. A Cruise Consultant must be fluent in English, and any additional languages are preferable.
