Trainer Posted October 28, 2012 #826 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Just a note to tell you how well Capt. Rune handled the problems of Hurricane Sandy. I was on Oct. 22-26 and we had to come in to Port Canaveral early the last night. He kept us informed and avoided as much of the storm as possible. Although it was very rough I think he did a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted October 28, 2012 #827 Share Posted October 28, 2012 We had Captain Johnny on Allure this week and he kept us well informed. We skipped Falmouth and had what turned out to be a great sea day around noon. He kept us well informed and I felt very safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted October 28, 2012 #831 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Quite a nice toy! Can I send you my Christmas list?? Travel safe! Yes, but aren't you a bit to old to believe in Santa. Does a cruise on a ship, not in a car, top the list? At FLL and our plane just came in and we are soon about to board. Hope Sandy is kind to you.

Rare NorbertsNiece Posted October 28, 2012 #833 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi, New to this thread...... can you explain how the 2 named Captains work? Is the first one a senior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted October 28, 2012 #834 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi, New to this thread...... can you explain how the 2 named Captains work? Is the first one a senior? They have equal standing. Each ship has two captains who alternate taking command so one is working while the other is on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfcathorse Posted October 29, 2012 Author #838 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Allure OTS - Capt Johnny Faevelen (started rotation 8-19-12)Allure OTS - Capt Tommy Nyseter How long is a rotation? Rotations are usually 10 weeks. The 2 masters work out their own schedule. A rotation can be as short as 8 weeks and as long as 14. Capt Johnny likes 11 week rotations so Allure is on an 11 week rotation. Then of course, there's the situation where a vacationing master may be asked by RCI to come back and fill in on another ship in an emergency (death in the family, birth of a baby, etc).

TomCat32174 Posted November 5, 2012 #842 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just returned from Allure this afternoon, and Capt Tommy came onboard on 10/28. This was my first cruise with Capt Tommy and I have to say, he was great. Had me and my wife fooled during muster as we both thought it was Capt Johnny as they both sound awfully alike.

BillB48 Posted November 6, 2012 #844 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hi WCH... I can tell but Capt. Ban brought the Vision back to FLL on 11-2. However I don't know if Capt. Lauritzen took over after that... the few I talked to did not know with any certainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
