The Truth About Carnival Cruise Wages (Fact-Checked)
My other detailed video is here: https://youtu.be/i3enDZecs08 Senator Tony Sheldon boarded a Carnival cruise ship claiming it's some of the worst worker exploitation he's ever seen — including a viral claim that crew are paid just $2.50 an hour. I checked his claims and while some of it holds up, most of it doesn't. While one claim turns out to be completely true. In this video I break down: ✅ Whether the $2.50/hour wage claim is mathematically possible under international maritime law ✅ What the Maritime Labour Convention actually says about crew hours, rest periods, and minimum wage ✅ The AMSA inspection findings on Carnival that is conveniently ignored by Senator Sheldon ✅ Why Carnival Australia is refusing to negotiate with the Maritime Union of Australia — and why that part is true If you're planning a Carnival cruise, curious about how cruise ship crew are actually paid, or just want the real story behind the headlines — this one's for you.
