We wanted to find out more about this service, so we asked the director of For Crew Only to provide us with some additional information. Here is the response regarding shipping your packages right from the ship directly from the service company.

Does a member of your team come to the port to pick up the package?

"We pick it up at the port for the crew member – they can pick the time and preferred place. I can also pick it up onboard but most prefer to hand it to me outside."

Can you tell me what the price of the delivery is, let’s say for 5 kg. package from Port of Miami to the Philippines? 

"We shop for the best prices amongst all the companies that deliver. Prices for Philippines approx. 5kg can start at $50 USD. It really depends also on dimensions as well as weight. We deliver ship to ship and within the US. Delivering ship to ship depends on Port starts at $35."

"We are also creating a crew member registry – “wish list” the crew member will create the list and can provide the URL to family and friends or if guests onboard want to give them added “gratuity” they can purchase from the crew members wish list."
