ppstateofmind Posted September 18, 2015 #76 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Darn laptop..... was going to ask...Anyone know where Nacho is? Is he still w NCL. I first met him on Epic and then on Gem when he was promoted. Loved him! Nacho was on the Epic in August 2015, as Assistant Cruise Director. Jill was the CD, but she was going to NCL Spirit later in that month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PE Cruisers Posted September 18, 2015 #77 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Colin Kerr was the BEST CRUISE DIRECTOR EVER!!!!! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️ I agree had Him on our second cruise on the Sun.Personable & one of the funniest CD'S we ever had. Heard He was in the Far East ,but that was years ago.

minnesotamamafish Posted September 19, 2015 #78 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I'm sorry if this is hijacking, but thought I would post here as it's currently active regarding CD's. What is the usual schedule for how many weeks the CD works, then has off? I am on the Escape the first week in January. If Julie heads over there shortly to prepare for sailing, it would make sense to me that she may have Christmas and after off duty. Is this likely? And if so, who could be her replacement? Thank you for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LissaSue2 Posted September 19, 2015 #79 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Any one know where Dan the Man is now ? is he still with NCL ? He was in The Pearl just last week. He was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare www3traveler Posted September 19, 2015 #80 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Normal CD's schedule is 4 months on and 2 months. Not knowing whether or not Julie is already in Germany, a lot of Senior Staff are on board now,I can not tell whether or not she would be there in January. Have no idea who her vacation replacement would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ppstateofmind Posted September 24, 2015 #83 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Ok, gonna just say it... I gotta "vote for Pedro". There is a Pedro as CD on the Epic now. I guess that's the one you are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellbelle28 Posted September 24, 2015 #84 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Any one know where Dan the Man is now ? is he still with NCL ? He was on the Pearl last week if it's Dan The Man Olsson. I liked him. He was so genuinely pleased with the entertainment he'd been able to bring aboard and had an "all American boy" sort of persona that didn't annoy.

CruisinMaterial Posted September 24, 2015 #86 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Dan the Man is not the same person as Dan Dan, right? Harriet Dan, Dan The Party Man was his old moniker as he used to do the pub crawls on the Jewel back in 2010. I think it's the same guy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastalbreezes Posted September 26, 2015 #88 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Dan "The Man" Olsson will always be my favorite CD. We were lucky to see his final performance of "Fountains" at the crew show (which never failed to make me truly laugh out loud!). Here's a video I found: Tracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie1029 Posted September 27, 2015 #89 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Just off the Gem. LOVED Dan Dan! Especially loved his performance of The Prayer. Josh Groban has nothing on him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr and Mrs C Posted September 28, 2015 #91 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Adam was a great assistant cruise director on the Getaway last January. He is headed back again to the Getaway soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samiam0403 Posted September 28, 2015 #92 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I would be hard pressed to name any cruise directors that I've sailed with, with the exception of Richard on the Sun. Sailed with him in 2013 on the Sun, and was pleasantly surprised that he recognized me when we sailed with him again in 2015. I thought he did a great job of being upbeat and fun, but not fake or over the top. Would sail again with him any time. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdycty Posted September 30, 2015 #95 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Who is the CD on the Gem in Feb? How are they? A few years ago we were on Carnival and didn't really care for that CD. Didn't seem like to much was going on anywhere. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinoyCruiser Posted September 30, 2015 #96 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I believe Simon moved to a different cruiseline after his daughter's death. I heard Simon is still with NCL... in the corporate office doing fleet enhancements, like the touchscreens located around and other new ideas.

Magickpyggie Posted September 30, 2015 #97 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hmmm, none of my favourites listed, so here goes in no particular order Archie, great guy very pleasant Ben Kitchen, very friendly and professional Simone, great guy very entertaining Julia, friendly professional Donald, what an awesome guy and a great singer. Did I miss anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epic_Bear Posted September 30, 2015 #98 Share Posted September 30, 2015 We've had Dingo Dave on 3/4 of our last cruises. We liked him because he seemed to really enjoy is job and seemed like he was "in" on the joke of being a bit cheesy as a cruise director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh good...I said, "I think" ;):D Hmmm, none of my favourites listed, so here goes in no particular order Archie, great guy very pleasant Ben Kitchen, very friendly and professional Simone, great guy very entertaining Julia, friendly professional Donald, what an awesome guy and a great singer. Did I miss anyone? Agree with you about Ben....he was great on Sun during our panama canal cruise. When some of us had an issue with how early they shut down the disco, he made sure that it stayed open from then on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoAndHaveFun Posted September 30, 2015 #100 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Adam was a great assistant cruise director on the Getaway last January. He is headed back again to the Getaway soon! I have had Adam twice as the assistant cruise director and he's definitely awesome. He's very charismatic and he can get the room's attention pretty easily. I feel that he's cruise director material! We've had Dingo Dave on 3/4 of our last cruises. We liked him because he seemed to really enjoy is job and seemed like he was "in" on the joke of being a bit cheesy as a cruise director. I had him on the Pearl and his personality and smile were definitely contagious. I enjoyed watching the Dingo Dave Morning Show with him and the assistant cruise director Philly Joel (also a pretty cool guy that recognized me throughout the ship) as both of them had great chemistry with one another.
