    The plot follows the romantic misadventures of the crew and guests aboard a luxury cruise ship, the Pacific Princess. Each episode consisted of three story lines at a time, a unique feature for any sitcom. The first story line usually revolved around a member of the crew. A second story line revolved around an interaction between yet another crew member and a guest star. A third plot line was usually developed around a couple or group of guests on the cruise ship. The romantic escapades continued on other ships as well, for special voyages to China and Europe, among other destinations.
