Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted August 8, 2018 #26 Share Posted August 8, 2018 From Captain Alex, on the the Summit while introducing his fellow command officers after the muster drill. I am in charge and I will be the one to issue the abandoned ship order.......if I am not available then my second in command will be in charge and he will issue the order........if for some unknown extreme circumstance we are both not available, my third in command will take charge and issue the required orders......finally, if he is not available then we are having a much worse day than you are!!! Gotta love Captain Alex.... Have heard both Captain Alex and Captain Kate use that line. I was on an interesting cruise where he was Captain for the first 7 days and she was Captain for the next 7. The two of them and Captain Tasos are the funniest captains I've encountered on Celebrity. I was at the Captain's table back when they did that, sitting next to Captain Tasos. Another woman was going on and on with pictures of her children and grandchildren on her phone. Captain Tasos pulled out his phone and showed me a picture of his baby--a fabulous sports car.

Silkroad Posted August 8, 2018 #27 Share Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) Oh, thanks! And wow, it will be fun listening to what he comes up with on the Edge! Den Captain Dimitrios Kafetzis has a great sense of humor! He and Captain Kate McCue have been the two most accessible captains I’ve encountered. Should Captain Kafetzis offer a lecture in the theatre, don’t miss it. Very entertaining. I’ve heard that Captain Tasos Kafetzis also has a great sense of humor.

Mike981 Posted August 10, 2018 #30 Share Posted August 10, 2018 The difference between a ship and boat. We are on a ship, a boat is what comes when we start sink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam.Seattle Posted August 10, 2018 Author #31 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Captain Alex wanted to share a little bit what we might see in Alaska. He said… The cows in Alaska produce two products. The first product is milk and…… The second product is frozen yogurt. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEGL81 Posted August 12, 2018 #33 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Upon taking over a transatlantic in the Canary Islands, Captain Tasos announces: "I'm not sure exactly where we're going, but if we head east we're bound to hit Florida." Also loved him on the Liar's club with his continuos reference to the "Greekipedia". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanita1767 Posted August 12, 2018 #34 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Our captain on Equinox (7/28 cruise) only made announcements on sea days with minimal info and no chit chat, no updates as we left port either :(. He was quite the contrast to Captain Tasos who we would stop what we were doing to listen to... Captain invisible made me realize how much we appreciate the more outgoing Captains. I think we had the same captain, and I agree that the outgoing ones makes for a better cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NanaChar Posted August 12, 2018 #35 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Talk about Black humor. This was a RC cruise. The song they played on the PA during the sail away was ‘My Heart Will Go On,’ the theme to the Titanic. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KateWes Posted August 12, 2018 #38 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Captain Kate’s daily Confucius quotes were always good for a laugh! She turned out to be very funny during her announcements! Found myself really looking forward to them each day! Some favs.... “Man who pushes piano down mineshaft get tone of A flat miner.” “Man who eats photo of father, soon spitting-image of father.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLgirl15 Posted August 14, 2018 #39 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Our very first cruise was with Captain Dimitrios and we were in stitches. Loved how he joined the activities like Liars club and dancing with the stripes (as a judge). Looking forward to cruising with captain Kate next month.

Sam.Seattle Posted August 15, 2018 Author #40 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Today when leaving Icy Straight Point, Captain Alex announced that he wanted everybody to know he was the captain of the ship. And, he had his wife’s permission to make this announcement. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
