I am not sure that website is the ultimate source of information concerning CDs on Royal Caribbean, especially if it indicates that Carly Boileau and Karen Mayberry are the only female CDs in the company. They neglected to include Mercedes LaFuentes who was the CD onboard the Legend of the Seas sailings out of Santo Domingo last winter. My recollection is that Clo O'Connor, after taking a lengthy maternity leave was back on the Jewel of the Seas while Bobby Brown was on vacation. Someone else has now taken Bobby's place (he and Clo are among my favorite CDs), but Clo may still be filling in on other ships from time to time. Someone else may know the details.

That's good to know! When I came across the site, I did not know that all the CD's were not listed and I was disappointed to see that several of them who have wonderful reviews were not there! Thanks for the clarification. I'm happy to hear that Clo has or will be returning!

I have sailed with James Andrews twice (Freedom and Liberty). He was a delight. Very funny, quick witted, and he has a great Australian accent! Clo was our CD on the Jewel in March. She was also enjoyable. I was looking forward to Richard Spacey, but I guess he is going on vacation and Ken Rush will be the CD on our Freedom cruise in 2 weeks (though I have read good things about him as well!) Overall, I would vote for James Andrews. Clo is no longer a CD with RCI I guess - according to the RCI Productions site. The only 2 female cruise directors are Carly Boileau and Karen Maybury. You can find a list of CD's (although they do not include which ship they are on) by visiting the productions site (http://www.royalcaribbeanproductions.com/). From there, select "TEAM" from the menu bar at the top. There is a drop down box in which you can choose to only view the CD's.
