What happens in Secrets of the World's Most Expensive Cruise Ship season 2?
The official synopsis of the first episode read: "The World’s Most Expensive Cruise Ship is in Iceland for the very first time in its history, embarking on a cruise that will take in some of Scandinavia’s most stunning scenery. And it’s not just the port of call that’s different — Lizzie is the brand-new social hostess — or as she’s affectionately dubbed, ‘The First Lady of the Ship’.
"Formerly a cruise ship singer/dancer, it’s the first time Lizzie has stepped into this role, where she’s responsible for all the social aspects — from cocktail parties to hosting dinners, crafting activities and games. Lizzie is hoping to prove to her bosses that she is worth re-hiring after her probation period ends."
However, it's not plain sailing as when the ship leaves Iceland, stormy weather ruins its planned docking in Heimaey, resulting in an unexpected day at sea and the crew must come up with an impromptu plan to keep the passengers entertained.
Also, "we get a thrilling glimpse into what money can buy on board this six-star floating hotel, which even includes an extensive pillow menu on offer to guests, from water pillows to buckwheat pillows and even a tri-side anatomic pillow! With over 150 excursions included with every cruise, Destinations Manager Roland is a very busy man.
"But when a call comes in requesting a bespoke, off-menu trip, he has his work cut out. With just a few days to put together the trip of a lifetime, can Roland deliver an excursion to remember?"
To complete the voyage, the cruise throws an extravagant no-expense-spared 4th of July party, bringing together the whole entertainment team to see out their adventure with a bang. Will the party be a success with the guests? And can Social Hostess Lizzie blow passengers away with her solo number?
