Anyone got a review on cris brown now on Ovation.

cant find much information?

 

I had Chris on the Initial May 13th 11 day Alaska cruise. I found him to be professional, funny and fun to watch for the rock and roll show.

I was glad he eliminated the silly QUEST from thos sailing. Chris is from Australia and perfect for Ovation.

Please remove the comment under the Enchantment that Bobby Broughton will join the Liberty in April.  This is not definite .

 

 

[3eaglesfam]

Does anyone know who takes over Oasis after Bobby?  Looking for info for April 2020

[DELTABLUE]

I had the pleasure of meeting Bobby when he did his first RCI cruise on Grandeur and thought he was a wonderful breath of fresh air.  Would be thrilled to cruise with him again if he is on Enchantment when she returns to Baltimore.

[Drock20J]

If Marc just rejoined the Harmony, when does he leave the boat again? I am sailing EARLY January and would love to have him on this cruise!

[welshrich]

Hi, We just got off Quantum, Ken Jones is the current CD and Troy the AM.  Not sure when they get off.

[DELTABLUE]

Thanx for the update!

[Piperandleroy]

Does anyone know who is on the Anthem after January 5th?

Is that out of Florida or Port Liberty?  I don't think  even they know the schedule yet and things can change, but I know Adventure is relocating her home port about then, so that seems like a likely change over, but that is speculation on my part. i suggest you check back in  early 2020.

We will be cruising out of Port Everglades/Fort Lauderdale. I will keep checking on updates. The CD really doesn't matter much to is, but I was curious so I could learn about his/her background before cruising.

I appreciate that sentiment completely. 

[Crism]

I'm really glad to hear about Daniel Dornas promoted to CD on Freedom. He was our AM on Rhapsody for the Brazil to Barcelona cruise in 2016 (he's from Brazil). 

[Slainte!]

Mike is onboard Indy

😢 I’m sad, we will miss him by a couple weeks. Boarding February 16th. I wonder who will replace him this time? 

[Scotty G]

Elvis is on board Empress!

[DELTABLUE]

Thanx for the confirmation.😉
