Chris Wong is an assistant casino host with Royal Caribbean. He first started working for the company in 2013 and has worked on four different ships with the cruise line.
What’s a typical day like in a Royal Caribbean casino?
Chris told Express.co.uk: “My job is to reward casino players based on their level of play which is determined by their gaming action.
“The loyalty program is a points-based system, which means the more points players earn during a cruise, the more perks and benefits we offer.”
Incredible perks could include complimentary cruises, free dinners in the ship’s specialty restaurant or shopping expenses onboard.
Chris added: “I will be constantly engaging and interacting with our guests playing in the casino, building rapport, and catering to their requests.”

Working on a cruise ship can involve very long hours and a lot of time spent away from home.
However, Chris said: “This job has allowed me to travel the world and explore destinations I could have only dreamed of visiting.
“I now have friendships that span the globe, and a greater appreciation for all the different culture my fellow crew members come from.
“Working on a cruise ship is unlike any other job in the world. You can quite literally wake up in a new destination on an almost daily basis.

Chris added: “The top decks on Royal Caribbean ships are fantastic. This is where the pools, climbing walls, running track, sports court and FlowRider are located.
“The vibe of the area is so much fun, especially on those hot days at sea. On the most recent ship I worked on, I did the skydive simulator, SkyPad, which really got my adrenaline pumping.”
Royal Caribbean has recently launched the world’s largest cruise ships, Wonder of the Seas, in Florida.
It will make its maiden European voyage this year in May 2022, exploring Rome and Barcelona.
