cruzndiz Posted December 28, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I was just wondering what the chances are that I will see some familiar faces when I board Mariner again in January 2011 ~ I am under the impression that staff sign up for 3 or 6 months but then can "re-up" or be "re-hired". Some of the Mariner staff must have been on for a while since they knew some of the guests on my last cruise. I would LOVE to see some of the same staff again!

Travelcat2 Posted December 28, 2009 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Some contracts are 6 months, some are only 3. Their big thing right now is to rotate staff from one ship to another. We were on the Voyager twice in 2009-- 2 months apart. Many of the staff had changed. It is really difficult to tell who you see on a particular cruise. We are hoping to see a couple of people from our November Voyager cruise on the Navigator in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy The Wanderer Posted December 28, 2009 #4 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I believe some staff have contracts that are up to 9 months or perhaps longer. That's true of the spa I know, and perhaps the lower-level staff like the kitchen staff and wait staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UUNetBill Posted December 28, 2009 #5 Share Posted December 28, 2009 We had a steward on the Navigator last summer who told us he was on a 7-month contract, then taking time off and returning to the Voyager next year - which is great because we're on the Voyager next summer and would love to see him again - he was fantastic!! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzndiz Posted December 29, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted December 29, 2009 It sounds like it's all luck of the draw then........maybe that will be my first activity when I board next January: see if any of my fave staff members are onboard :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
