The lucky social media user noted: "I can do almost everything that the crew can do, and almost everything that guests can do – except for a few things."
For example, she is not allowed to gamble while on board, and she has to wait an hour after the guests get off the ship at the ports before she can follow.
However, Christine can use the gym, spa, pool and other guest amenities – although she gives up her spot to guests if it's busy.
Her post was popular with viewers who left more than 727,000 'likes', with many revealing they were envious of her situation.
