Galaxa Posted April 9, 2012 #229 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Here's what I need to verify. If anyone can help me, please post what you know (and provide your source), or refer me to a review or thread that contains the info. Is Leigh Xuerob still the CD on Serenade, or has he been replaced after just a few weeks by Rich E? Hi we just got of the Serenade last Saturday (31 March) and Leigh was still CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldz4 Posted April 9, 2012 #231 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Talked to RCCL representative yesterday. Ken Rush returns from his vacation on June 10th and is aboard the Allure through September 2nd. My family likes him so we're happy since we are going on Allure August 19th. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted April 9, 2012 Author #232 Share Posted April 9, 2012 This list is maintained based on anecdotal info reported by cruisers on these ships, therefore I depend upon returning cruisers to post their CD here or to include it in their reviews. I try to sift through all the reviews for CD info. If anyone can help me, please post what you know (and provide your source if possible), or refer me to a review or thread that contains the info. Please note the info does not come from an "official" source, and emails from RCI stating who the CD will be on a future cruise are often incorrect. CD's are not on a specific rotation schedule, and they move around from ship to ship, so it's impossible to predict in advance. Accuracy of this list is only as good as people reporting back to us after their cruises. It may be off by weeks, or even months. ******************************************* Adventure OTS - Abel Jeney *verified on 3/30 that he is still there Allure OTS - Allan Brooks *started 4/1; Ken Rush will be back June 10th through September 2nd. Brilliance OTS - Paul Lancaster *started 3/31 Enchantment OTS - John Blair *due to take a break sometime in May - Carly Boileau May and June Explorer OTS - Richard Spacey *started March 9.

TechKnowBabble Posted April 10, 2012 #233 Share Posted April 10, 2012 No love no dislike... didnt even know who the cruise director was until around the 3rd day. As time went on I can say I did enjoy John Blair but cant see him standing out down the line as a fave, where as others sure will. (other lines) I just got off the 3/31 Enchantment sailing. Good to know. I like having a good cruise director but hubby and I always manage to have a great time regardless. Even a 'bad' day on a cruise is better than a good day at work LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAZ100 Posted April 10, 2012 #235 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I am going on the Allure cruise in December.. I guess Allan Brooks will be on since Ken is only on Allure until September 2. If anyone gets any updates on who will be CD on the Allure in December 9 I will be very thankful. I wish RCL had a website listing of all CD like John Heald has for Carnival cruise..

I just asked someone who posted that he was leaving on the Grandeur transatlantic this week if he would report back to us any CD info - perhaps he can find out how long Rico is staying on the ship.

DonnaK Posted April 14, 2012 Author #244 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Is Mitch still on Mariner? (if he is going over to Majesty on May 7 to cover Dave's break, is he taking a break in between or is he going straight there?) Luke is supposed to be the CD on Indy beginning this past week. Can anyone confirm that he is actually there? Can anyone find out: When Abel is taking his break from Adventure? When Rico is taking his break from Grandeur? When Dennis is taking his break from Jewel? When John is taking his break from Enchantment? When Dan is taking his break from Legend? When James is taking his break from Liberty? When Drew is taking his break from Monarch? When Warren is taking his break from Navigator? When Bobby and Becky are taking their break from Radiance? When Joao is taking his break from Splendour?
