dsvd79 Posted May 12, 2013 #1926 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Vision OTS - Topi from Finland started May 11 We was the activities manager when we were on board in February. He was full of energy, and always got the crowd involved. Even if most of them were well over the hill he got them going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can post links when I get home. Hmmm, curiouser and curiouser. James is shown on this website as working at the W Group, but with no current listings. His last Twitter post regarding real estate was April 26, which isn't that long ago. No Twitter mention of going back to RCI. http://www.w-group.com.au/search/profileagent.aspx?agtid=4412&fullprofile=true?agtid=4412 However, he posted a picture on Instagram today of a motorcycle called "Turkish pride and joy" and the Splendour was in Turkey today. I wonder what happened and how/why he came back to RCI :confused: I'm glad he's back, but it did seem like he was pretty set on leaving to do other things.

salboz Posted May 15, 2013 #1942 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Just when I learned about Mike Hunnerup from all you knowledgable people, I see he left the Vision and Topi is now the CD. We are sailing in a month so I assume he will still be on. Looks like he is newly promoted, but info regarding him as an activities director makes it look promising. I am one that doesn't mind if he doesn't get to know me as long as he does his job well. I personally think the CD makes a big difference in the entertainment portion of the cruise which is part of what I like about cruising. Thanks everyone that gave input on Mike.

Really, it's way too soon to predict but I'd say that you have a good chance of having Joff. Unless something changes, he is the regular CD of that ship, and he generally has contracts of 4 months on followed by a 2 month break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
