Spotted Cruise Ship Taxi! Royal Caribbean Brilliance of the Seas
Brilliance of the Seas & Freedom of the Seas
Spotted the Brilliance of the Seas is getting ready to soon resume service and help transport crew members!
Brilliance of the Seas docked in Perfect Day Coco Cay
On Tuesday, October 26, Royal Caribbean’s Brilliance of the Seas joined the Freedom of the Seas at the cruise line’s private destination Perfect Day Coco Cay. No revenue passengers were on the vessel as it has not yet resumed service since the pause in operation due to the global cruise shutdown.

Many crew members could be seen transferred off of the Freedom and boarded onto the Brilliance as that ship will either be their “taxi” to their next ship for their contract or stay on the Brilliance.
I spoke with a crew member on the first day of our cruise, in Adventure Ocean and she mentioned that she would be getting off the ship and transferred back to the Adventure of the Seas, which has been in dry dock in Europe for the past few months.
It always surprises me how light others can pack! Especially when crew members’ contracts are often 6 months long! One large suitcase for all of their belongings! I guess uniforms can help cut down on the clothes.

Many crew members were seen out on the balcony cabins, it is likely that they are in quarantine, after recently getting on the ship to assure that they are healthy before starting work.
