#Exploitting

We asked Carnival Cruise passengers how much they thought the crew on board are paid. Unsurprisingly, nobody was even close to the hourly rate of these exploited workers. It goes to show how far corporations will go to exploit legal loopholes when workers aren’t protected by union agreements. We need to keep up the pressure on Carnival. Keep sharing the campaign and encourage your mates to sign the petition. To sign, follow the link in our bio. And once again, keep an eye on our social media for when we need you on the ground holding this company to account.

BREAKING TRAVEL DRAMA 🚨 This week Carnival Cruise Line hit a massive tech iceberg — not at sea, but in their systems! 😬💻 Starting Feb 8, a widespread IT outage during routine maintenance knocked out a ton of key systems across the fleet — from boarding scans to mobile apps. What passengers dealt with: 💳 Casinos & onboard charges went cash only 📱 Carnival HUB app? Offline 📦 Self-serve systems? Down 🚢 Ships delayed — some didn’t leave port until hours late. 😩 Long lines at terminals + paper processes made check-in chaotic for many cruisers. 📣 Carnival’s president apologized and promised Wi-Fi refunds and compensation for the disruption. ✨ System’s back up now — but this glitch reminded everybody how digitally hooked modern cruising has become.

Carnival Cruise Line is raising the prices of their gratuities AND also the Bottomless. Bubbles package. #cruise #cruisetok #carnival #carnivalcruise

🚨 CARNIVAL CRUISE LINE IN PANIC MODE 🚨 The MUA was granted a legal ‘right of entry’ permit to access our members aboard Carnival Adventure at Circular Quay. That right exists to protect workers. Full stop. Today, Carnival decided the law didn’t apply to them. They blocked us from seeing our own members. They denied workers their right to union representation. And they think they can keep exploiting their crew up and down the Australian coast without consequence. They’re wrong. This isn’t over. Not even close.

Carnival really said print it out in 2026 😭📄 Love y’all… but this paper boarding pass gotta go. @carnival can we please get electronic!!! #carnival #cruise #carnivalcruise

It’s not just labour exploitation that Carnival Cruises is known for. They also have an incredibly disturbing track record of corporate conduct that shows where their priorities are. Check out our video — and if you find this as outrageous as we do, support our campaign to secure a Union agreement for crew on vessels home-ported in Australia and help lift the standards for workers on these ships. Follow the link in our bio/comments below to sign the petition and keep an eye out for our upcoming call for boots on the ground at the ports where Carnival operates from.
