pugsleycat Posted June 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hi all! I was wondering if anyone knows who the captain for the Caribbean Princess 7/29/10 sailing out of Brooklyn will be? We are getting married at sea on 7/30 and are curious as to who will be performing the ceremony. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggprincess2004 Posted June 14, 2010 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2010 If Princess has your e-mail address you should have gotten some pre-cruise notices from them, telling you who the captain, maitre'd, CD and others on board will be. Congratulations and best wishes for every happiness, from one Princess bride to another!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted June 14, 2010 #3 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I'm on your sailing. I haven't gotten an email from Princess yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugsleycat Posted June 14, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Thank you! I pulled out that e-mail and, as you wrote, the Captain was listed! It's Captain Pickford... I don't think he has very good reviews but nothing will ruin my wedding / honeymoon! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted June 14, 2010 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Pugsley, who is the Cd and others listed in that email? (I wonder why I havent gotten mine?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugsleycat Posted June 14, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hi - I logged on to the cruise personalizer on the princess website and reviewed "pre-cruise e-mails" from the documentation section. The e-mail was from the captain, excerpt below, but did not include any other info.: Greetings from the bridge of Caribbean Princess. Our crew can't wait to bring you and your fellow passengers to some of the most amazing places on your sailing to the Caribbean. Please take a look at this email for more information about your cruise and your ship, and to be sure everything is in order for your embarkation. I'm looking forward to welcoming you aboard soon! Sincerely, Captain Philip Pickford Caribbean Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted June 14, 2010 #7 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Pugsley, who is the Cd and others listed in that email? (I wonder why I havent gotten mine?) It may be Capt Atillo Guerrini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&F Posted June 15, 2010 #8 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I read from some returning that Captain Marco Fortezze got on in San Juan. I believe it was the 5/27 sailing. Based on how long they usually stay on, I would only guess it might still be him on July 29th. If it is, in fact Cpt. Fortezze, he is a very personable gentleman. He came to our MnG last summer and stayed for quite a while, joked around and offered lots of info and answered questions. We even watched him officiate a wedding back near the Terrace Pool. Make sure they make no announcements when you are getting married if it is outside. This poor couple got a Bingo update while they were being married. You could see some people were a bit miffed, but overall they just laughed it off and went with the flow. Congratulations, Freddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregjm Posted June 15, 2010 #11 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Captain Pickford was the first (and only) Princess employee I've ever written to Princess headquarters to complain about. He really seeks to dislike passengers...IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&F Posted June 16, 2010 #12 Share Posted June 16, 2010 He gets off again on July 20th. ;) Thanks for the info. I'm glad to know I'll be seeing him again this summer. I hope he can make it to the MnG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avd79 Posted June 16, 2010 #14 Share Posted June 16, 2010 We are on the July 20th sailing and the email I received last week says it is Captain Fortezze for our sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know because he is leaving the ship the same day. :) I don't think the e-mails get updated right away. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMHF Posted June 16, 2010 #16 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I am also on the 7/29 sailing. I rec'd an e-mail stating our captain would be Attilio Guerrini. On our cruise in April, my wife & I spent about 1-1/2hrs talking with him after the most travelled passenger cocktail party. He is really nice and very interesting to talk to about the cruise biz. Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials. Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
