Tin can Posted August 11, 2016 #1501 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Can anyone help: Allure: exact handover date between Tim and Dru Freedom: When does Casey's break begin, and who will be the covering CD? Will Casey return to FR after his break? Mariner: Handover date between Fang and Keith? It should be soon, like this week. Oasis: Handover date between Patricio and Drew? Radiance: When does Jamie leave (he is due on another ship on Sept 19, so it must be before then) and who will be the next CD? Vision: Is Mercedes onboard for 2 months (late August) or longer? Who will be the next CD? Or if anyone knows who will be replacing Rob McNally on Navigator at the beginning of October that would be great. .

In total agreement with DonnaK. Dru was delightful. He's Canadian and he was doing a random audience participation event.He put the Mic up to a lady who just giggled. She said she didn't speak English, and he realised she spoke French. He then switched and spoke to her in French. He handled it with such class and translated for the rest of us. The lady was smitten with him as was the rest of the audience.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonnaK Posted August 14, 2016 Author #1515 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Would love to know who will be on Oasis Jan 29th [emoji4] Well, Drew is the regular CD of that ship and his next contract should end right before your sailing. There is not one CD who consistently covers Drew's break, so we cannot predict who will be the CD on your sailing. We probably will not know until much closer to the date.

DonnaK Posted August 14, 2016 Author #1517 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) So who is on Indy February 2017......did I see a gap or misread? There is a gap, and we do not have that info yet. Joff is the regular CD when the ship in based in UK, so he already knows his schedule and shared it on twitter. Otherwise, it is too soon to know which CD (or CDs) will be filling in between Jamie (mid-November) and Joff (mid-May), and we may not get that info until it's close to the end of Jamie's contract.

suzbro Posted August 15, 2016 #1519 Share Posted August 15, 2016 We'll be on Radiance for 29 days with CD Steve Davis. We've never cruised with him - what can anyone tell me about him? Thanks! We did 18 days with Steve in April and thought he was excellent, very approachable. One of the best CD's we have had.

DonnaK Posted August 16, 2016 Author #1525 Share Posted August 16, 2016 (edited) Tim leaves August 21 for 4 months. Sorry, don't have the actual return date. Isn't 4 months is a bit of a long break? I know his wife had a child last year, but 4 months is still quite a significant length of time. Maybe he's filling in on another ship at some point. He might not be returning to Allure, or may be doing a split contract on two different ships. It seems that Dru is the regular CD of Allure now, and will be getting the 4 months on, 2 months off, contract there. So, it'll be interesting to see how it will play out. There's been a lot of movement among CDs Edited August 16, 2016 by DonnaK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
