To be honest, I've never had a Royal CD that I thought was fabulous. He was fine but I mostly saw him when he was on stage at the beginning of the shows. Definitely sounds like Arnold Scwartzenager LOL 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was great on Ovation down in Australia last summer so fingers crossed he'll be bringing her home to Sydney in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Eyed Belfast Belle Posted September 21, 2023 #1108 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Currently onboard Serenade and Ken Jones is not wowing me. His morning shows are boring, he doesnt interact much (only seen his twice around the ship outside shows and games). The Acitivites Team are carrying the load. I have heard that Joff will be taking over as CD for the World Cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leen50 Posted September 21, 2023 #1110 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Royal's CD's morning shows are recorded at Night & shown in the morning. I prefer Carnival's Live morning show. They're a lot of fun. I once won a plate of Big Chocolate Chip Cookies for calling in a Trivia answer. You can attend them in the theater and sometimes there's audience participation.

motheroftwocats814 Posted September 25, 2023 #1123 Share Posted September 25, 2023 The only cruse directors I remember, from all the cruises I have taken, were two. One was the very first cruise we ever took. It was Carnival and the CD was the most annoying person ever. I will never forget him.."Karl with a K." Even his name tag said it, he was introduced that way etc.. The other one, also from Carnival was Cookie. He was great. But, honestly I pay no attention to the CD's, they have no bearing on my experience. I couldn't even tell you who the CD was on our Allure sailing in 2019 or our Voyager sailing in 2022.
