Bill from Maspeth

Saw Dan Dan on the Bliss last week and said she was his assistant and was very good. Your opinion if you don’t mind.

 

 

Mandy was OK. She and her AD need to talk slower on the loudspeaker. Tough to understand them. On the big ship it was kind of difficult to see her much. The atrium is too small for the # of passengers and many events are held there. It was the first time I was on the big ship and I missed the Spinnaker Lounge and the comics doing the 18+ show in the theater. I couldn't get reservations in the Comedy Club for that. I've been on about 8 cruises and I would consider her average. My favorite was Malcolm Burn on Carnival and Pedro Serra on Norwegian. Pedro grew on me as time went on. The worst IMO: Dingo Dave. Just too goofy for my taste.

 

Speaking of comics, the best ever was Tim Kaminski.

 

This cruise where Mandy was the CD is on the Escape from 9/9 to 9/16. We were supposed to go to Bermuda, we received notification in advance the itinerary was changed to Port Canaveral, GSC, Nassau. Nassau was cancelled so we could get back on time. I'm pretty sure they knew they would have to cancel Nassau beforehand, but wouldn't tell us till we left GSC.

Mandy Jones was the cruise director on the Escape from Sept. 9 to Sept. 16.

Bermuda was cancelled due to Florence. We stopped at Port Canaveral and Great Stirrup Cay. Nassau was cancelled so we could go around Florence in the Atlantic coming back to NYC.

Getting off the Norwegian Escape yesterday, I observed an old looking all blue AIDA ship (AIDA letters in different colors) in NYC.

Couldn't find this ship on their website. Anybody know the name of this ship?
