All cruise lines subcontract their spas, usually to land based spas such as Clarissa of Paris, and a few others. The cruise lines cannot hire into these positions. So, if you are looking for spa work, such as massages on board a cruise ship, you would have to go to the spa first. One way to find out which ones are on which ships is to go to the cruise lines web sites or go to a travel agent and pick up a few brochures.

In my opinion, the more luxurious cruise lines which have larger ships, such as Regent (formerly Radisson), Crystal, Cunard would be best. The mass market ships might not be as much fun.... or profitable.

Good luck, Bob I Reply to this
