rubens Posted April 30, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2010 This kind of thread is very popular on other cruise lines forums but I don't see anything like this for Azamara. The purpose is to find out who the current ones are .:confused: Probably only people who cruised recently will be able to answer this and I hope they will do so. With only 2 ships this must not be difficult to do:o So, just fill in and if known put when he/she will go on holiday/return or replaced by? Journey: Captain ? CD ? Hotel Director ? Quest: Captain ? CD ? Hotel Director? Let's start :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acruisergirl Posted May 15, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Does anyone know if Philip Herbert is still with Azamara? We sailed on Journey last year and he was wonderful. Thanks, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted May 16, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I will be so sorry if John is no longer with either Azamara or Celebrity - we have cruised several times with him both on Celebrity and Azamara and have found him the ultimate professional and always visible. Are we sure this is a permanent move as he was due to go on vacation soon and in the past he has done a stint in HO from time to time before returning to the ships Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubens Posted May 25, 2010 Author #7 Share Posted May 25, 2010 As from now: Eric Degray, new CD on the Journey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneBP Posted May 25, 2010 #8 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Many of us are so disappointed that 'our' Eric de Gray is jumping ship from Seabourn. On the other hand, it's a reason to try Azamara. And we know you all will really enjoy him, his shows are fabulous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeezics Posted May 25, 2010 #9 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Apparently Russ Grieve is CD on Quest...another import from Seabourn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryh Posted June 7, 2010 #11 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Captain Carl Smith left the Quest in Athens on 3 May when Captain Leif Karlsson took over. CD John Howell also left the Quest on 3 May. For the next cruise to Rome Kelsey took over the role but always introduced herself as Activities Manager. Philip Herbert was Hotel Director throughout our b2b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubens Posted June 7, 2010 Author #13 Share Posted June 7, 2010 :confused: thanks for the names on the Quest but who are at this time: Captain ? CD ? Hotel director on the Journey ? would like to know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikelmay Posted June 10, 2010 #14 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I'm pretty sure that most of the senior staff rotate between contracts and tours from one ship to another. Philip Herbert left the Journey earlier this year and returned to the Quest after his vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Project_gal Posted June 27, 2010 #19 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Captain Carl Smith is the best of the best. I hope he is back on the quest for our 3/17/2011 sailing So we have heard many times but no one should be disappointed if Leif Karlsson is their captain rather than Carl Smith.

8mma Posted July 4, 2010 #21 Share Posted July 4, 2010 We just got off the quest, June 10 through June 20 and Philip Herbert as the Hotel Director did a fantastic job; Azamara is so lucky to have him. Cruise Director Russ Grieve was also great at making you feel welcome. It was a wonderful cruise - I can't wait to start planing another one.

We had sailed with Philip Herbert and his wife when they were with Crystal Harmony (when Crystal had 3 ships.) Nice to hear that he continues to shine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrCaSurvivor Posted July 17, 2010 #23 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I hope that Philip does not leave the Quest before we sail on July 24th. He is the best!!! In all our travels, we have never encountered anyone in the hospitality industry that measures up to him. We met him on the Journey last June during Azamara's initial sailing to Iceland. We could never figure out when the man slept as he was always up and about. He has such a wonderfully sincere and caring demeanor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzboy Posted July 23, 2010 #25 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Phil is truly a class act and a great asset to the Azamara team - an absolute gem! The Guest Relations staff under the direction of Philip Herbert also deserve kudos. Liesl and Rozanne are also amazing. As is Russ Grieve the CD - totally engaging and fun.
