Sheltieluv Posted April 12, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hi all. After almost a 4-year absence, we are thinking about a Navigator cruise this fall. This would be our 4th cruise with Regent. We love the Navigator, especially because of its small size and outstanding crew. However, having said that, I know that crew members move from ship to ship. On our 3 cruises with Regent, we were fortunate to have a waiter named Alberto P. We always asked to be seated in his section; he was so much fun and we grew very fond of him. Is there any way to find out if he is still on board? If anyone is currently on the Navigator, if you could ask the maitre d' if Alberto is still on the staff, I'd appreciate it. Thanks so much! :) ps--anyone know if Elvis the bartender is still with Regent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liptastic Posted April 12, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hi I have read a few of the posts on the current world cruise on Navigator and Elvis has been mentioned a few times being onboard. He was on Mariner last August. Jean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheltieluv Posted April 12, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hi, Jean. Thanks for your reply. We have fond memories of Elvis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liptastic Posted April 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Sheltieluv likewise. We have been lucky to have Elvis onboard on quite a lot of our cruises, and the twice on Navigator. Hope you have a great cruise . Jean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWG_ag Posted April 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Alberto was still with Regent in the fall. He was on our Trans canal in September on the Mariner. Sat at his table 8 or 9 times over 18 days. That is a close as I can get you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheltieluv Posted April 13, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Thanks for the replies! I'm glad to hear Elvis and Alberto are still with Regent; they are both great assets. I'm sad that they aren't on the Navigator, but I realize staff does get moved around. Maybe we'll luck out and they will be back on the Navigator in the fall. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevertravel Posted April 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 14, 2017 The Alberto I know and like a lot (he's an excellent waiter) was on the Mariner before but was on the Explorer on our Rome to Miami cruise last October. He's Filipino, nice looking, and very good. He's been with Regent for many years. I don't know if we are talking about the same person. We cruised with him on the Mariner Cape Town to Cape Town in 2015 and then a crossing on the Explorer October 2017. I don't know if he's still on the Explorer.

Sheltieluv Posted April 14, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Forevertravel, "Our" Alberto ;)is Filipino; not very tall; a bit stocky, with a smile that would light up a room. He's probably my height--5' 3" or so. Does that sound like the Alberto you know? I'm sure there's more than one Alberto working on the Regent ships, but we're hoping to see him again in the fall on the Navigator. We got to know him back in 2006 on our very first Regent cruise and were fortunate to see him on our subsequent cruises. He's a gem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevertravel Posted April 15, 2017 #9 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The Alberto we know and like is a bit taller than 5'3 and he's not stocky. He has a very nice looking face. He's married but has no children. We are probably talking about different Albertos. I think it may be a common name in the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWG_ag Posted April 15, 2017 #10 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The Alberto on Mariner in September was the one you were asking about. 5 3, stocky and a real character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
