Captain Stig Nilsen took command of the BR yesterday in CPH.
-
Has anyone confirmed that Captain Stig will assume command of BR while it is in Copenhagen or Stockholm next week?
Stig Nilsen will indeed take command of the BR on CPH August 21, that´s what he has told me.
-
We sailed with Captain Stig on Jewel of the Seas' westbound transatlantic (when it hit the powerline in the Faroe Islands). He is very personable (although I think he enjoys the Blue Nose ceremony a bit too much. LOL.)
We will be on the Brilliance, August 19th and look forward to welcoming him when he boards the ship in Copenhagen on the 21st. I think that the next cruise, the Brilliance transatlantic, will mark his first time back in the Faroes since last year's incident.:)
The powerline in Klaksvik has since been removed.
Captain Nilsen will have to go thru a Red Nose ceremony (arranged by your DW) in STO.

Hello Azamara Quest Captain Followers -
As previously reported, Captain Carl Smith will serve as the Master of the Azamara Quest starting with the August 28th voyage and ending with the October 23rd voyage.
And Captain Tysse will serve as Master of the QS on the Southampton-Sevilla sailing, starting August 16.
-
On the Royal Caribbean thread his has been mentioned that Captain Henrik Soerensen from Brilliance of the Seas comes to Azamara Quest. he is from Denmark. However, I`m not sure if this is still valid.
Captain Sörensen is not coming to the QS.
-
Captain Stig Nilsen will relieve Manolis Kaselas on BR in CPH August 21.
-
Hi -- I think Captain Smith will be on leave at that time
First: There´s no June 17 sailing. Present sailing started June 10 in STH and ends up in STO June 22. Second: Captain Smith is not onboard, as Captain Nilsen is at the helm right now.
-
It should also be noted that according to Capain Nilsen, he will join the QS in STH for the June 10 sailing.
-
Does that mean he will embark during the Nov 29 cruise? If so, it will be strange to have two different captains on one sailing.
Yes, it means he will embark in Colombo and it is not so unusual for captains to change during a cruising.

Does that mean that Captain James will not do his normal 10 week assignment on Jewel since he just boarded on September 16?
No, it does not affect his present rota.
-
Just an update. Azamara has a new Captain on the rota! Stig Nilsen joins Quest on Saturday replacing Captain Johannes who covered for one cruise as Leif Karlsson has decided to retire. Captain Nilsen comes from RCCL. Not sure if anyone here knows of him, but I understand he is a very nice guy. I'll be sailing on Quest on Saturday and looking forward to meeting him.
Phil
Stig Nilsen is onboard the QS this week learning Azamara´s values from Johannes Tysse. Stig has been assigned to the JW for many years and is as you write "a very nice guy".
Johannes will debark on Saturday continuing his vacation until November 29.
-
I see, then he changed his mind about going to Freedom. And Capt Grimstad is temping for who to come to Freedom?????
I can only confirm that Thore will share the JW with James.
-
If Stig Nilsen has moved over to Azamara as reported (and I have had that confirmed by more than one source) I wonder who will replace him in the rotation with Captain James?
I know Thore Thorolvsen wants to return to his "baby".
-
QS????:confused:
Azamara Quest, my dear!
-
Stig Nilsen will not return to JW as he has been assigned to the QS.
-
I dont know yet......
and for those who ask,don't know who left the JW.
Ned has NOT resigned!
-
Thanks Bill.........I know someone on the JW right now and hopefully she will let me know so I can pass the word on..
Just talked to Stig Nilsen and Ned is not yet onboard. Hopefully she will join the JW on present sailing.
-
Captain Mattias Persson took command of the BR last Saturday.
(Captain Kasselas´ wife is expecting a baby in September).
-
Happy Birthday wolfcathorse!
-
It is possible that Captain Stig joined the ship in Helsinki, Finland which was the third port of call.
It is not only possible but in this case true, as Captain Nilsen in fact relieved Captain MacDonald in HEL.
-
hmmmmmmmmmmm wonder why......she told me the 2nd..:confused:
I´ll call and ask her, since she wrote med the same.

To email the concierge,use the 2 letter code for ship(i.e EX for Explorer),followed by an underscore then Concierge@rccl.com
The underscore is ONLY between the ships two letters and Concierge.
i.e
**For the Rhapsody RH_SuitesConcierge@rccl.com
**For the Grandeur GR_SuitesConcierge@rccl.com
**On Oasis and Allure you need a 01 or 02 in the email address since there are 2 concierges on each ship
i.e
On ships with Diamond lounge concierge,add the word diamond in front of concierge
i.e
Nedere is not yet back onboard on JW
-
Don't know much about Betsy, the Concierge, but I know that she is a friend with Rusti and Susie, from the Champagne bar, and that's good enough for me!:p
Franca
See you soon,
Franca
Betsy is good and also a friend of Nedere on JW.
