There was, of course, a lot that Jill had to say about the yacht being understaffed compared to the real yachting world. Jill also had no qualms about admitting she likes what she likes, and if stuff isn’t good, she sends it back because that’s the hospitality way.
“This is a service industry, a mega-yacht. This was a mega yacht, 190-foot,” Jill expressed.
The Bravo personality went on to spill it cost her friends $45,000 for two days. Jill shared that the group got an itinerary from Fraser upon arrival of exactly how the next couple of days would go.
Then she had some words about the chief stew.
“One thing Fraser emphasized, which is ironic, is that there would be snacks and food all the time everywhere,” she spilled. “He actually emphasized that and completely didn’t deliver, and I have to tell you, I think about the trip. It was the head stew’s job to make sure things went seamlessly, and I kind of blame him for the trip being kind of a total disaster for my friends, who I felt terrible for.”
