On the Gem, Jenny is hotel director. Steve Knott is gone.
Any idea how long Jenny will be there.?.we are sailing in October...
Never sailed with her..any input;)
-
Quick question....what do you use the HD for? If you used them, how did they help?
The HD is the BOSS! (right there under the Captain;) who is the BIG Boss)....Many CC members have said that when there is a problem that cannot be resolved first by going thru proper channels /up the ladder in any particiular department--then the HD can be contacted and may be of assistance..
I have found that the best HD's set the tone for the ship...!!!! and that is why NCL is so good....;)

Does anyone know where Florentina is going?
A previous poster mentioned she was going home for a year...I believe
-
Ohhhh good to know as I will be on the Gem in May. Any one have reviews/experiences with him? (I will search of course, but thought I'd ask too.)
Interesting (I searched). Looks like he has previously been a bartender and butler. Good for him. I hope he enjoys his new position.
Would also love to hear ....though ..not sure he will be onboard..as we sail in October....:confused: (forgot how long contracts are for.._)

Great review..enjoying it....(you really seem to know what people want to know!)
-
Bumping up...so it does not get lost again...:D

Thought it time for a little bump :D

I do keep a packing list which I update after each cruise..(.as I often bring too much of one thing and not enough of another.):o..or needs to be changed depending on warm or cool weather..
Other useful things for me.....under bed..I have a box with my crusing items..with my packing list, extra travel toiletries, lanyard,travel mug,passport holders, etc,etc...... AND 2 large (8x12) vinyl envelopes one for cruise docs ,excursion info,etc and one for any general travel info incl print outs from CC about specific ports,etc.) for that particular cruise..and to keep receipts while on cruise.
Month before cruise I file all the info in envelopes and just slip them in my carryon..

I've heard that Dan "the man" is going to be the CD and Hugo will be HD starting in I believe it was Oct but I'm sure all is subject to change
And I wonder if Fire & Ice will follow him ....as they have done in the past (if Iam not mistaken)

Stumbled upon this thread..enjoying it...!!!
We do not skimp on our cabin..we book the best we can afford. DH spends a lot of time there..
I save "mad money" for months--to have a casino "kitty"--as that is my entertainment !!
We will not skimp on excursions IF we are in a port we have not visited before-or if it is something we really want to do ..and we will buy a piece of local art IF we see something in a port that we like.
We never skimp on tipping...and always buy insurance...
Thing we skip ... spa treatments , ship photos, bingo, art auctions , souvenirs . Just not our thing..
-
bumping up for any updates:)
-
I,too, have sailed both...and much prefer NCL and the Gem (though the Jewel is my favorite).....whatever you choose...ENJOY!!!
-
So even if I'm booked in a little inside cabin do I still have a chance of being chosen? I'm booked for a cruise on the Jade in March and am thinking of puting my name in. Since I'd be doing this alone, any more good tips besides letting the HD know at the m&g?
No difference if in an inside or solo...good luck:)
-
getting on the jewel today. It is our daughter's birthday and we are renewing our vows after 12 yrs so maybe we will be chosen!
have a great cruise!!!!!
The jewel staff is the best!
-
Although my DH is not that interested, I am so I think I will put our name in for next week. I think my 8 year old son would think it very interesting. My 7 year old daughter will just be there. :) Do any of the following things help or hinder selection:
Suite
Kids
When you put in name
Thanks for your help!
Suite or not...does not seem to make a difference.
Putting name in at M&G helps a lot!
Kids--don't know...have never seen any at two I was at
-
By the way what is the dress code for dinners with an officer? On other ships it generally is "formal".
On the recent Jewel... it was cruise casual -though I dressed up a bit..as I felt it was appropriate to do so...
-
Was on the sailing with Gregor4500....I also had dinner with an officer (in my case the F&B Director)....I had a great time...good meal and some very nice dinner conversation...:)
-
Glad for you :)
and well said..
"All companies have issues
Good companies address them
Thank you

They are great, but I've read on some recent threads that NCL has removed them from the MDR menus... :mad: (May still be available in the buffet...)
On our May cruise..the head chef told me "corporate" had removed the chilled soups from the menus:eek: He did not know why
-
Thanks for the GSC pics!
-
I do not think you can do two per cruise, but no harm in asking. Please come back and post if they allow it. I might consider doing that, too.
FYI--I called..she said only one :(
-
My sincere sympathies.....God bless..

I am not a big gambler, but each cruise a redeem 5000 points for $100 in slot play. I feel I get a lot of bang for my points that way as have a little fun on the slots and (so far) I have walked away from the casino further ahead than if I had taken $50 in OBC for my 5000 points.
I think that is what I am going to do :)
Question...can I redeem 10,000 for 2 slot play certificates??..
