What Actually Happens If You Sneak Into the Areas You Didn't Pay For
Somebody is selling their cruise wristband on eBay right now. Someone bought two, walked up to the exclusive pool entrance on a Carnival ship, and was turned away in about three seconds — not because a crew member recognised his face, but because the band was the wrong colour. The colours change every cruise, at random. There's no pattern to learn and no way to buy around it. Somebody on that ship decides the colour, somebody prints them, and nobody tells you the system exists until you're standing at a rope you can't cross. In this one we look at what's actually behind that rope, what it costs, and what really happens when you're caught trying to get past it. The answer is stranger than a fine — and there's one part of the ship where the locked door isn't protecting a nicer pool at all. There's also a room on most ships that's warm, empty, and completely free, that almost nobody uses.
