I don't understand how Odyssey has Ricky Matthews listed for an entire year. That doesn't seem accurate

 I know that the start date was previously 11/17/24, which is the date Odyssey arrives at Cape Liberty.

Does anybody know if Joff Eaton is staying on Seranade after the world cruise for some sailings from Tampa?

Yes. Joff will be leaving in early October, Talita will be taking over as CD.

Someone on Utopia told me Katy McCullagh is still the CD.  She's staying for a few more sailings.

I'm not sure about this.  Has it been confirmed that Ricky is the CD?  My info came from Katy herself.  Could it be that Ricky was mistaken for the CD because he is (or was) director of parties and night life working with Katy?

Ricky Matthews is “front of house” CD now on Utopia.  Katy, while still there, has taken a “back of house” role.
