Loyal to Royal, top passenger finds 'perfect lifestyle' at sea

By Donna TunneyLife onboardMario Salcedo last year authored a post on the blog of Royal Caribbean International CEO Adam Goldstein, relating his experiences onboard the line's ships and offering tips to cruisers. Read it here.He might have been a Merchant Marine or a ship's captain or a career Navy officer, so great is his love of the sea. But Mario Salcedo instead decided to carve out a lifestyle as a perpetual cruise passenger.

Salcedo has taken 600 cruises, most of them in the last dozen years. And 480 of those cruises have been on Royal Caribbean International.

His favorite ship is Royal's Liberty of the Seas, and he essentially lives onboard from October to April, while the 3,600-passenger ship plies the Caribbean out of Fort Lauderdale.

He typically sails on the Liberty's transatlantic crossing in April, when it repositions for its Europe summer seasons, then flies back to Florida and becomes a passenger on other Royal ships until the Liberty returns in the fall.
