Families of the best crew at sea

[mommyto2girls]

How about we all say a prayer for the families of a large part of the NCL crew that are in the path of a devastating typhoon in the Philippines tonight. It must be very difficult to be so far from loved ones during a time like this.

[spidybabe]

Will pray for them

Safe sailing

Safety to all

[Alvarado]

In my prayers as well. This is undoubtably a hard time for people who have to work and can't be there to help their loved ones.

[spannersmom]

I have thinking about them all day and praying for their families safety. We have met so many wonderful crew members, agree it must be so hard to be away from them. God Bless.

[WaldosPepper]

They've all been in my thoughts and prayers. I cannot imagine how difficult it would be to know that your loved ones are in the path of a storm like that, and be helpless to do anything to help them. It's got to be even more difficult when services go down due to the storm, and you can't reach them to know they're okay. And yet these amazing and hard-working people just keep on working, making vacations wonderful for their guests. They truly are remarkable.

I've been thinking and praying for them all day too.

Thank you for posting this...my thoughts and prayers are with them all.

Prayers and Blessings go to all the crew, not only NCL but any ship and cruise line. I cannot imagine the grief and concern these people have right now.

If you are on a ship or getting on one this week-end, please let the crew know you understand what is happening and show your support.

My prayers are with the crew as most are from the Philppines. This is a nasty Typhoon. Hope NCL allows the crew to have some free Internet minutes/Phone Calls for them to check with their families. These crew members sacrifice a lot when they work on a cruise ship like leaving families members behind for months. It must be a worry for them.

Definitely so many people are in our prayers, we hope they will be safe through this storm and will be able to be in contact with loved ones.

Adding my thoughts & prayers. Just watched the devastation on the news.:(

[youngestof9]

I cannot stop thinking of all of the amazing people who must be so worried and scared for the safety of their families. All of my prayers for them today.

[mommyto2girls]

When I first saw the devastation caused by the typhoon, I thought about all of those serving aboard cruise ships unable to be with their loved ones.

 

Hopefully, NCL will allow them free internet or phone time inorder to contact friends and family at home.

 

To those of you currently aboard ships, please offer words of comfort to your crew members.

Prayers to all. The news reports are sobering and so little is known. Much help will be needed.

NCL does offer free internet and phone time now, the problem is them getting through :(

Add me to the people praying for all those in danger

It will be difficult. After Katrina it was like we were in a black hole, we could not communicate. My husband who was in health care had to be at the hospital and I could not be in contact with him. Cell phones will not be working, no internet, mail stops, no electricity, no fuel, planes cannot land, ports are torn apart, roads are not passable and list goes on.

 

Much support will be needed. The basic everyday things are the building blocks. Clean clothes and a bath become a gift.

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking about this today. First the earthquake and now this. My heart goes out to them! And the most amazing thing is they will go to work with a smile on their face and many passengers won't have a clue.

Thank you for posting...sending my thoughts and prayers as well.

The poor crew members that have to endure this heartache while working and having a smile on their face through it all.

 

I also had all of NCL crew members in my thoughts when I heard about the typhoon hitting the Phillipines. NCL has an amazing crew and they work so hard to support their families back home, some crew members leaving their children behind to go work on the cruise ships. My thoughts and prayers are with all the crew members that are worried sick about their loved ones. NCL will do everything they can to help the crew get into contact with their families.

They'll be in our prayers tonight as well.

[IWORK2CRUISE]

My first thought after hearing about the terrible typhoon was of some of the lovely crew members we have met over the years.

Prayers for all who have families in the Philippines.
