Joshua Jackson

While the Canada native hasn’t been on a cruise, he has gained experience at sea on other ships. “I’ve been on boats a couple of times,” he explained. “I am very fond of my part of the world, the Strait of Georgia and the San Juan Islands off the coasts of Washington and British Columbia. I think a big cruise isn’t really, it’s not my thing.”

Stephanie Pastor

He Keeping up with the Kardashians The student, who guest stars in one episode, last went on a cruise when he was a child. “I’m not a cruiser,” she said. Us. “I have only done one cruise in my life, when I was a child with my mother. would take a ryan murphy cruise. We would definitely take a cruise. I feel like we would go to Greece, to dance, maybe there. We have a good time wherever we go.”

Overstreet Chord

As a Pastor, the Joy The student has not sailed since he was a child. “But my brother is obsessed with going on cruises,” she said, adding that if she went now, she would go “where I could jump more in a warm climate, so probably the Caribbean.”

Phillipa Soo

The Broadway star, who plays nurse Avery Morgan, has “never” been on a cruise. “I just haven’t come across any,” he explained. “I’ve been on ships, but never on a cruise ship where I sleep there.”

If you ever find the sea calling you, you have a destination in mind: “Someone once told me to take a cruise along the coast of France. My parents did it and it was a bike trip and a cruise. You put all your stuff on the boat and then you bike along the coast to stop at the different ports after a long day of cycling, and your stuff is on the boat and it follows you down the coast. That sounds like a lot of fun. I mean, I might have to train for it. “I don’t feel like I’m in the right shape for that right now, but it would be a lot of fun.”

Sean Teale

Teale, who appears as nurse Tristan Silva, has “never” set foot on a cruise ship, and Doctor Odyssey hasn’t convinced him to book a cabin. “I don’t know if that makes me want to do one,” he joked. “These are hectic. These cruises are stressful. If I wanted to take a cruise, it would be the Odyssey. That’s what I’ll say. “It is a special boat.”
