C 2 C Posted August 20, 2017 Author #131 Share Posted August 20, 2017 from Celebrity: Celebrity Cruises Page Liked · 8 hrs · It is with heavy hearts that we regretfully announce the passing of Captain Apostolos Bouzakis, a great man and beloved member of our Celebrity family. Captain Bouzakis passed away this morning in his home in Greece, surrounded by his wife and two children. As a member of our Celebrity family for 27 years, he was highly admired, respected, and loved by his crew and all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends during this difficult time, and to our crew members who sailed or worked closely with him on board Celebrity Reflection. This is a devastating loss, and he will truly be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuvCruzn4Evr Posted August 24, 2017 #141 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Report from Millennium: Captain Nick is aboard. So what happened to Captain George? A post on the 18th said he just returned but he's left already??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orator Posted August 24, 2017 #142 Share Posted August 24, 2017 So what happened to Captain George? A post on the 18th said he just returned but he's left already??? I wonder if he was ever on board. There was a new Staff Captain that boarded whose first name is George. No one who is on board ever confirmed that Capt. George was on board. One passenger and two crew members communicated the information to me. If he was on board he simply ended his tour of duty and left. All that matters to me is that Captain Nick is now Master of Millennium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvCruzn4Evr Posted August 24, 2017 #143 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Arno, Captain Georges Iatrous back to active duties; took over command of Millenium today in Vancouver.Looking slimmer, a bit paler, but glad ''it's over'' as he said. This surely says Captain George was onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srdancer Posted August 26, 2017 #144 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Got email this morning from Celebrity. Captain Bouzakis died last week while on vacation. He was only 51. He was so young.
