As far as I know Ken Byrnes (singing Maitre d') is still on the Pride.

We love the Pride and Ken.  Everyone has their own opinion though.

In my opinion Ken is the best!

I thought the employees were not supposed to hook up with the guests?

Thankfully, Carnival (and the vast majority here on CC) disagree.  Were you planning on sailing the Pride?

[NJEMT29]

We are this June 23 and my wife is really hoping that he is there

Yes I am sure others disagree -  all entitled to our opinions.  Have sailed on the Pride 6 times, most recently as this past January and had a fantastic time.  Already booked another Pride cruise!!

All opinions are equal here, just like discussions.  Why do u think Kens time has passed?

[JMAE]

We have been on the Pride 9 times all but 1 with Ken.  He and his team do a great job!

Ken is head Matre' D of the Carnival line. He prefers the Pride----but whenever carnival brings out a new ship they send Ken to train the waitstaff. Years ago he mentioned his birthday---6 years later we were on the Horizon's TA cruise my wife remembered his birthday, so we set up a display----he loved it!

 I spoke to Ken recently and his last cruise on Pride (for now) will be March 10th.  He'll be gone for awhile.

I'm happy to be sailing with him that week and will try to find out who's taking over!  

[NJEMT29]

I sent a email to Ken and he replied he will be back for my cruise on June 23 

[jimbo5544]

Ken is simply the best!  Carnival is lucky to still have him.

Sailing the Pride in September, hope he is back!  Reading down I see he will be back in June.

We'll miss Ken by a week......sorry to hear that we won't see him on the Pride next cruise.

We were on the Pride with Ken last month. He was fabulous! 

[sgttami]

Just off Pride today.  Ken will be back after vacation,  returning June 2nd!

 

Dario will be filling in till then...

Great on June 23. Tks

Ken is the one who got knocked on the head by another employee. Took him a while to recover.
