snorlax555 Posted April 5, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Does any one know who the Cruise Director is on the ventura in August and does any one know which entertainment offices are on-board (ie are they nicked from the existing ships or are they new ones?) Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monocled Mutineer Posted April 5, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Neil Oliver - the best CD of the fleet. Sorry just noticed your August qualification. He is the CD for the start of Maiden season ... but for how long I do not know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snorlax555 Posted April 9, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Thanks for that. Any idea how quickly they change. I know the CD on the Oriana last year had been on there for ages when I went on. Heard good things about Neil and the one I had on the Oriana was brill. Just hoping I don't end up with one that is not very good as reading a few message boards they do seem to make a big difference on the cruise.

K8T Posted April 9, 2008 #4 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi there Neil Oliver is on until 13th June and then Nigel Travis takes over until August. I believe all the 'important' officers, will be from other ships within the P&O Group. Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CASPALL Posted April 9, 2008 #5 Share Posted April 9, 2008 We encountered a very snooty female CD on 2 of our cruises. Youre right - it does make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PandO Boy Posted April 9, 2008 #6 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Christine Noble may give the impression of being "snooty" (earlier reply), but if you took the trouble to stop and talk to her you would find that she is very friendly and warm hearted.

That's her job isn't it? If it is perception then it may as well be reality. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pollypops Posted April 10, 2008 #11 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Re Entertainment Officers - when I was on Arcadia last September one of the EO's, Andrew Williams, said he was going to be on Ventura, don't know how long for though. He was brilliant, very funny and witty. We had Sally Sagoe as our CD, she has a bit of a "snooty" voice, but when she stopped to talk to me on the stairs one day she was really nice.

feebee_71 Posted April 14, 2008 #12 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Andy Williams is on (I think he said until July or August) also other entertainment officers include.......... Laura Burnett (Burnie/Bennie - forgotten which!) - assistand CD, Matt Batey - formerly of Oceana and Arcadia Sarah (missed her surname - in her 30's I would guess) Richard (again missed his surname) - formerly of Arcadia big lad with a lot of heart and fun in him!! Didn't get to see many of them other than Andy, Burnie/Bennie and Rich but they seem a good bunch and have been together for a little while so are building a good team rapport.
