CruiseTube Awards 2025 - The Trophies That Nobody Wants To Win

2025 has been… a year. Nine cruises. Seven ships. Twenty awards up for grabs. Welcome to the 2025 CruiseTubies — my incomplete, unofficial, highly subjective end-of-year awards show, celebrating the best, the worst, and the “how on earth did that happen?” moments from a full year at sea. This is not a highlights reel. This is not a brochure. And it’s definitely not polite. Inside you’ll find: Shock winners I didn’t expect Losers that physically pained me Prestige awards that actually matter One or two moments that nearly broke me And a final category so prestigious it may never recover No rankings. No filler. No mercy. Some awards are glorious. Some are brutal. Some exist purely because I needed to talk about them. And yes — one performance was so good it forced me to invent a new category. Grab a drink, settle in, and let’s hand out some trophies. Ladies and gentlemen… WE GO. 🚢🏆 00:00 Intro 00:18 Best Included Dining 00:49 Worst Passenger 01:43 Best Entertainment 02:18 Biggest Loser In Cruise Entertainment 02:39 Best Speciality Dining 03:09 Worst Speciality Dining 03:27 Best Buffet 03:34 Best Value 04:08 Worst Value 04:25 Best Venue 04:53 Best Crew Member 05:32 Best Gym 05:40 Best Prom Deck 05:48 Best Musical Performance 06:06 Worst Musical Performance 06:34 Worst Ship 06:54 Biggest Bullskip 07:14 Dullest Dishwater 07:30 Biggest Tearjerker 07:56 Best Cruisetuber
