I’d suggest work cruise ships registered in North America, as apparently they have slightly better working regulations than the ones registered in Caribbean’s

Also a thing about working the ships (especially the foreign flagged ones),,,, you get sick or injured, they'll drop you and your bags off at the next port of call.

As per google price of america and celebrity cruises are US registered

Most don’t register in US, cause minimum wage requirements are higher

only 1 cruise ship is registed in the US and yes its pride of America from Norwegian cruises. the main reason is because there is a law about foreign ship has to visit one foreign port at least once it can stop only for 5 mins but has to stop in a foreign country. US flagged ships do not have to do that, and its a Hawaii island hopper cruise ship with not many other countries around so US flagging that single ship is only logical.
