Boatmans Lady Posted March 11, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I've not heard who will be on Voyager when she sails on the 26th, so maybe it will be him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pcardad Posted March 11, 2022 #4 Share Posted March 11, 2022 He should be onboard already...they are usually on weeks before a planned restart. Hope he is well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOARMY Posted March 12, 2022 #6 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Cruise Director, and one of the best. OGOARMY! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anchorbuoy Posted March 12, 2022 #7 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Based on information and belief, he has left the Regent family. Currently on Splendor, he is absent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOARMY Posted March 12, 2022 #8 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Anchorbuoy: As 'Riley (William Bendix) would have opined (and, this dates me back to a '50s situation comedy): What a revoltin' development this is! Regent's loss is another Line's gain. GOARMY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pcardad Posted March 12, 2022 #9 Share Posted March 12, 2022 This was discussed back in January... And John told people the rumor of his leaving was not true...but I guess it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing how emotional he became on his Christmas video, I wonder if perhaps being away from family finally took its toll. If so, understandable. Also....I have misplaced the card for the Regent Rep from the Cruise event here the other night, but think her name was Ina.....younger lady, tall with long blonde hair.

moogwan Posted March 26, 2022 #13 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Heard when we were on Splendor that he is taking time off to spend more time with family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pcardad Posted March 26, 2022 #14 Share Posted March 26, 2022 This was discussed back in December - a hot rumor at the time. When he took down his FB CD page that kind of clinched it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare WesW Posted March 26, 2022 #15 Share Posted March 26, 2022 flossie009/Susan and David; will be on board the newest Silversea Ship, Silver Dawn for the naming ceremony/gala dinner next Thursday then the maiden voyage--embarking Friday--will found out if John is/has joined Silversea. Would be a remarkable switch, like Jorge with dozens of years on Silversea now working on Regent. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare WesW Posted March 28, 2022 #18 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Found out from Regent, that, alas John is no longer with Regent. Darn! Only wish John, the absolute best for Lynsay, their sons and him in the next cruising chapter of their lives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crosspost Posted March 28, 2022 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2022 John Barron is without a doubt the best cruise director in the industry. If he has gone somewhere else - how lucky they are to have him and how foolish Regent are to have lost such a dedicated ambassador for their brand. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
