Coolwhip82 Posted November 2, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 2, 2023 We were on the Escape in August and had Jack as our Cruise Director. We LOVED him! Just saw a Freestyle Daily from the Escape and he is not the current CD. Does anyone know where he is? I know he could be off right now, but just wondering. We sail the Joy in 16 days and my kids would go bananas if he was our CD again. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallux Posted November 2, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 2, 2023 These people are entitled to vacations as well. It's possible you saw a FD from when he was on vacation. For what it's worth - I've been on the Joy with Jake as the CD and I thought he was pretty good as well. I will agree with your love for Jack as I thought he was also excellent on my March cruise on the Escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted November 2, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 2, 2023 We're on the Escape in mid September and the "regular" officers & crew were beginning their rotations to take time off, as in home leave a/k/a vacation. Newer / replacements were coming on (you can tell as they are still required to transition by wearing N95 style face mask due working until "cleared" after x # of days onboard (learned that from head of housekeeping over dinner as we recognized the protocol earlier on the Epic) Jack was probably among those that disembarked in NY, like most of us and probably should be back soon to start a new contract - whether he's returning to the Escape or going to another ship ...

I believe the question is regarding Jack from the Escape...not Jake from the Joy. In any event, I recall seeing a post a couple weeks ago that Jack (not Jake) is taking some time off and will be returning to the Escape (not the Joy).

cruiservictor Posted November 2, 2023 #6 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I know Jake’s last name is Laflin, because we just finished 2 cruises on the Joy with him. (By the way, he may be the best CD we have ever had.) What is Jack’s last name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
