Headed out on the Mn today!! over and out! say Hi to Maricar (Guest Services) for us, she won't be there for the last sailing. I'm thinking she got married to Richie (waiter) please find out! Also give our regards to Capt Kjell and Jen. Capt Rune is supposed to start Monday so maybe he'll already be on!

ChipLondon Posted August 24, 2012 #985 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Simply Excellent :D Just wondering what Francois Roux on Serenade was like.....not sailing on Serenade till next year but would like to hear opinions. Thanks Sandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debde Posted August 24, 2012 #986 Share Posted August 24, 2012 That's disappointing. I was looking forward to seeing Israel on ID this December. He's one of the best. Bob Sailed with him on Voyager and he really wanted to be closer to home and base out of NOLA or Texas. At least he won't be over in Europe so GR is a bit better for him then Indy. He is very nice and very professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisefromct Posted August 24, 2012 #987 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Noticed that Ken Boodoo isn't listed on the concierge list. Did he resign? Hope that Ned didn't resign from the Jewel she is such a sweetheart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that Ned didn't resign from the Jewel she is such a sweetheart. I asked this same question and didn't get a reply. Kathy posted "Ken has left and gone home." I don't know if that means he resigned from the company or just left on vacation. I'm thinking she meant Ken has quit working for RCI. I see in your signature that you're on BR in October. We are too, the 10-12-12 sailing, are you on then too? Edited August 24, 2012 by wolfcathorse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

critterchick Posted August 24, 2012 #993 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Francoise is extremely polished and professional. He is not so much a schmoozer though. He will willingly do anything you request that is in his power. And that's quite a bit. We found him to be exactly the same way. He warms up quite a bit if one takes the time to chat with him about something other than asking for something to be done for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he needed to do something else. He will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorki1951 Posted August 26, 2012 #997 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Just wondering what Francois Roux on Serenade was like.....not sailing on Serenade till next year but would like to hear opinions. Thanks Sandra Francois was just what I expected a concierge should be. Professional and capable of identifying exactly what you need/want. He has a wealth of information to share and all you need to do is tell him what you want. In addition he seemed to be in constant motion making sure everyone was taken care of, but had time for everyone. Top notch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negc Posted August 26, 2012 #998 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Yay! Unfortunately we don't expect to see Nedere onboard JW when we sail on the upcoming westbound TA. :o Here's hoping her absence doesn't extend too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobal Posted August 26, 2012 #999 Share Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) Just seen from Fernando Cataldo's FB status that's he's off to the Jewel - he was due to be on Grandeur for a while so I'm guessing he's been moved to cover the person who resigned/went on early leave. He's a lovely, helpful guy and nothing is too much trouble for him :) Edited August 26, 2012 by Bobal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted August 26, 2012 #1000 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Another point about Francoise. He has fantastic visual memory. We sailed with him on NOS twice, in 2oo4 and 2005. I next saw him in Feb. 2011 and he remembered me! Commented that I was wearing my heair differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
