We were on last week and Bobby was CD

[DELTABLUE]

Nbritter...thanx for the update on Enchantment.  Did you like Bobby?  I thought he was very personable and entertaining.

[Nbritter]

We had him in May and this past week and thoroughly enjoyed him as our CD.  He gave us many laughs and that’s what it’s all about.

Michelle's not on vacation in April - she rotates off on February 5th. Mike replaces her then. Michelle returns from vacation on March 28th on Spectrum.

You are right sorry. When I was talking to her she sail April. But John just informed me she’s leaving on the 5th.

Jewel 1/27 it is a lady called Carly. 

[DELTABLUE]

Could be Carley Bolleau.  I had her 10 years ago on Enchantment.

[golfpccc]

Latest on Bobby Broughton:  
Enchantment—present until 3/30/20, Steve Davis will be replacement

Liberty— 5/10/20-7/14/20

Enchantment—7/24/20-9/24/20

Liberty—Nov 2020 thru March 2021

 

The plan is to keep Bobby on ships out of Texas!

She usually does Radiance class. She was on Serenade last October and has been on Jewel a few times before.

[Phil_G]

does anyone have a suggestion for contacting (email) the cruise directors office on oasis?

 

 

[tOSUSteve]

Do you know how long Dennis Charles will be on Oasis and who will take his place?

[stevea36]

Someone just posted on FB that Drew Devine has left Adventure, Katy McCullagh has come over from Serenade.

[DELTABLUE]

Gotcha stevea36!  Thanx.

How is Mike Hunnerup as a CD? Have never had him before!

We had Mike Hunnerup on Radiance the first time we cruised home from Hawaii in 2014, wasn't that impressed but that was our first cruise, thought he was a bit wooden, nowhere near as good as Jamie Fentiman or Steve Davis.  Mike is an Aussie (as are we).

[Tashia65]

We had Mike Hunnerup on Vision in 2016 and thought he was unapproachable and couldn't wait to do his duty then rush off without making eye contact with anyone!  I do hope he won't be CD on Allure in June.....?

Awful

[joand452]

We had Mike as CD on our Independence cruise in 2014.  Glad I'm not the only one who didn't like him.

 

All the CDs we've really liked in the past are gone!  Guess they were that good!  The only one left in Dennis Charles.  We had him in 2008 on Brilliance and liked him.  Just had him again on Anthem in 2019, and he was meh...

[jsg612]

Thanks everyone for replies!

 

Hopefully we like him, maybe might find him a bit more personable/relatable for us given we are aussies and so is he. Personally find some CDs just a little OTT so maybe the relaxed attitude you guys are describing will be more to our tune. Guess we'll see 😁

If not we can make our own fun. 😁

[Paulette3028]

Just saw a post by John Blair....that he will be on Vision as of today, 1/30.....it also tells me that Katrina Blair will be the Activity Manager as well, since they work together all the time. 

 

For those that don't know, I keep a list of Activity Managers on CC.  Any help that you can give me in keeping that list up to date, I would greatly appreciate.  

[DELTABLUE]

Thanx Paulette!
