Work on a Cruise ship?

[LockOut]

I have an skype interview with a cruise company on Tuesday. Pending that going well, and my references not hating me, the prospect of a job offer seems good. They have told me they are holding a large hiring of paramedics, with training in LA for the first two weeks in aug and then a year contract of 4months on/2months off. It seems like it would be a good gig, As a medic on a boat the info have states I would be ship staff, not crew. Which means I get the fancy white duds and can spend all my off hours in the "passenger" areas, rather than being segregated to the bowels of the boat.

Has anyone ever done anything like this. Did you enjoy the travel? Anything i should be aware of? Or anything i should specifically ask about the interview as I do not know a significant amount about the industry.
