With the number of destinations they visit per cruise, and the varying activities available to passengers at each destination, your interviewer is curious whether you have any experience creating an itinerary, and whether you would be helpful in offering recommendations to passengers. Whether on a cruise or other modes of travel, discuss where you have vacationed, and your experiences. Detail the thought you put into planning your trip, how successful your planning was, and the experiences that came from it.

"I backpacked through Europe just out of college. I knew which countries I planned on traveling and in what order. But frequently I made friends along the way and those plans changed in lieu of new ones. So, I am typically pretty flexible when it comes to such things."

"I have not been lucky enough to do any international travel. I have planned a 12-week US-wide road-trip in the past, right after I graduated from university. One of the reasons why I am so excited to work for Royal Caribbean International is for the international travel opportunities. I realize that I will not be vacationing per se; however, to even be able to see these places all over the world briefly, is enough for me."

"I have planned two international vacations before. One was a cruise for myself and my parents, with Royal Caribbean International actually. I used a travel agent to ensure that all of the details were perfect. We had an excellent time exploring the ship, the port towns, and took in a few excursions. The other simpler vacation I planned, I booked online by myself. It was a resort vacation in Costa Rica."
