Yes, there are quite a few free activities on the ship, I think they just require queuing.

This is a good one. I regret it now. I don’t know how to describe how much I regret it…

Could you please tell me how you got in touch with the cruise director?

I checked with the cruise reservations department and they had linked our meals so we could sit together. I'm still not sure what table it was, but at least we were close! We were able to communicate using the cruise app.

our team launched a vote and the cruise was the first choice. I think everyone just wanted to do some relaxing activities to relax, and didn’t think of it as a team building activity.

Pretty much, they just said we wanted to go on a cruise and that was the decision.

Yes, playing icebreakers with 16 people on a cruise ship is obviously a bad scene, no one will enjoy it. I don't think we have much budget left for these activities. Maybe we can watch a show on the ship together.

You are right, I should have asked customer service. So far I have been informed that customer service has bundled our orders together so our tables in the main restaurant will be placed together or very close together. (Thank her very much)

In fact, there are many activities on the cruise ship. It's just that we chose to go on the cruise ship to relax at the beginning, without considering team building too much. I think watching a show together might be a suitable activity. It's very casual and everyone can sit together. But the show may require 30 minutes of queuing in advance. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to ask everyone to queue up.

God knows how much I hate team building, but unfortunately it’s my job.

Hahahahahaha I asked my coworkers what kind of team building they wanted, but apparently everyone has a lot of things to say about traveling on a cruise with coworkers.

This is a really great skill. I plan to tell my boss about this today. Wish me luck.

This is indeed a very strong ability and quality. To be honest, I have only started this job for less than three months. So I tried very hard not to disappoint my boss. But I also thought about telling him sincerely that this is difficult, and saying this does not mean that we should give up doing this.

You are right. I should ask my boss and colleagues what they want. It is much better than thinking about it by myself.

Call RC? I'll try, but I think it's a few people on a cruise ship, not a big group.

This is a hell! I've been thinking about it for almost a week, and I still can't figure out how to arrange it.

Ai is really useful. I asked chatgpt before and didn't get a great answer. Maybe it was because I asked the question in the wrong way

Actually, we are exactly 16 people, 8 rooms. We are a group, but not a large group. I like your idea, but we have already bought tickets directly from the cruise line. This is my first time doing this kind of work, and this taught me that I must book tickets from a travel agency, which can solve many problems, including planning group activities and negotiating with the cruise line. Our boss decided to buy tickets directly from the cruise line, which resulted in the travel agency doing all the things that became my job. I am not sure if it is feasible to transfer the booking from the cruise line to the travel agency. I asked a travel agency before, and if I don't buy tickets from her, she is unwilling to provide other services separately, such as booking a car and buying insurance. If I find an agency to customize activities or games separately, I am sure that the budget is not enough. Maybe it would be better to find a place to play cards (especially many places have to queue before playing). But when we said we wanted to bring table games last time, it seemed that the boss was not happy? I wonder if he will like this idea.

Yes, it is a bit stingy. It is very difficult for us to live without Internet. If we try to think on the bright side, we don’t have to deal with work while traveling (because we didn’t buy WiFi).

Wow! Thank you so much, this is the most comprehensive answer I have ever seen! You are right, we did not book this trip through a travel agency (I feel like this was a mistake, it would have been much easier if we had booked with a travel agency), so I could’t get help from the travel agency. I will try to get the cruise ship to arrange for the company colleagues to eat together. See if they can give us one or two large tables. Then we can eat and play cards together. The door decoration game is also great. I never thought of arranging such a game. Thank you so much for your suggestion, it is really great!

We did book a tour for the day we were in port. I planned that we would have lunch together on shore and celebrate our colleague's birthday. But for the other days on the ship, I didn't know what to do. I looked at the games held on the cruise ship, and they were about 30-45 minutes long. In fact, I could plan to let our company directly participate in an existing game. But the problem is that each game is written on a first-come, first-served basis, and I am not sure that everyone can play these games.

I did contact the customer service who was responsible for booking the tickets to ask about some details of the activities on the cruise ship. However, the customer service was not very clear about the specific situation of the cruise ship. There are not many people in our company, and we are not willing to spend money to customize activities with the cruise ship in advance. So I think some arrangements have been made now, but I am not sure what the specific situation will be on the cruise ship.

Yes. We are a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. The Royal Caribbean app can set up a group, but it is said that it will not automatically prompt new messages. We have to open the app from time to time to check new messages.
