SherriZ366 Posted October 18, 2014 #3776 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Not sure if you saw my post yesterday but Gustavo is on Independence now in the CL as Raj has just gone on vacation. Perhaps he will go back to Liberty when Raj comes back from vacation. I'll speak to him when I am on Independence next month.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oak Hill Cruisers Posted October 18, 2014 #3777 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Recently got a PM from J.J. who's getting ready to leave South Korea to return to Radiance of the Seas, presumably to DL or CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess this isn't correct. Do you know when he is boarding RA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know when he is boarding RA? Sherri, JJ is a woman. She IS already at the concierge desk on Radiance. I got an email directly from her on the 13th telling me she is there until Juan Diego returns on November 29. She is the one who told me the first name of the woman working the diamond lounge. And JJ will go back to the diamond lounge when Juan Diego returns. I have cruised with her a few times and do know her. She is most definitely on board. The document is correct.

LindaMarie513 Posted October 18, 2014 #3781 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I ask Nazar when he leaves. Says Feb but doesn't remember exact date. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Thanks for the info. We will be on Serenade on November 6th. Wish we were there now. Also, is Serenade using the 3 nightly drink Vouchers yet? Thanks, Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katygirl5 Posted October 19, 2014 #3789 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Just got off 2 weeks on the Jewel,and we wanted to take Diego home and keep him. He is definitely in the top 5 concierges, maybe even higher. There was nothing he couldn't make wonderful. He remembered us from last year and he was only on board 1 week before he left for vacation then. Sally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was absolutely the best concierge I have ever met. He raised the bar very high for our future expectations! Rereading the above post, I see that the Jewel concierge was Diego Tripaldi, not the same Diego who was on Radiance.

When we got on Jewel last month it took us a couple of weeks before I didn't automatically try to add " Juan" to Diego.

trolleydolly Posted October 20, 2014 #3794 Share Posted October 20, 2014 We are the Indy on Saturday and have just seen Raj is on vacation and Gustavo Butcher is on instead of him. Anyone cruised with Gustavo before?. It's strange because when we last saw Raj albeit about a year ago he said he would be back from vacation by then?? Thanks. Indy here we come :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy here we come :D I've not sailed with Gustavo before, however I think I can explain why Raj isn't on the ship. In May, Nizar Laatiri was moved from Independence to Explorer and Raj came back to the ship. There was nobody to cover and he ended up staying on past the end of his contract, meaning he has only just gone on vacation - hence the change in plans from what he told you last year. I've seen very good reports from Gustavo as he has been on other ships previously. It'd be great if you could come back and let us know how you got on with him. Have a great cruise!
