matt082600 Posted June 14, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Does anyone know which Captain is where?? I am especially interested in the Miracle as I sail her tomorrow!!! But I figured maybe we could compile an entire list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted June 14, 2012 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Never seen a list and know they change periodically. BTW since we will not really ever talk to the capt why are you so interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt082600 Posted June 14, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I periodically see lists posted. More out of curiosity than anything else. I also like to know if I have sailed before with the captain of a particular ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
going to see the world Posted June 14, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I periodically see lists posted. More out of curiosity than anything else. I also like to know if I have sailed before with the captain of a particular ship. I also think it would be interesting to know if it was a captain that I've sailed with previously :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted June 14, 2012 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Who the Captain is ranks just slightly below wanting to know who the Cruise Director is. Both are things that don't interest me at all. That's another reason I'm disappointed in the new loyalty program when I get to the Diamond level. I don't care in the slightest to receive a special invitation from the Captain. I can think of nothing that would make me feel more uncomfortable than to be invited to a private cocktail party with the senior officers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not clear what we get in terms of invite from capt at diamond. Nice to go once and try it though. Have always found RCCL capt's more accessible in any case.

Missileer Posted June 14, 2012 #7 Share Posted June 14, 2012 We too like to know who our Captain will be. Our Favorite is Captain Roberto Volpi who will be retiring later this year. We always have nice converstaions with him and he is quite accessible to guests. I have seen CD lists but never a list of Captains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted June 14, 2012 #8 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Many employees don't like to broadcast that they won't be at home and/or otherwise might have stalkers/burglars/whatever. I'm surprised they publish any of them at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone at noon would stop to listen to his daily reports! Looking forward to hearing the reports in September on the Spirit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizaMM Posted June 22, 2012 #12 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Capt. Vito Giacalone signed on the Miracle in early March. It was Rocco Lubrano on the 5/30 sailing. I had answered the OP on another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasm4u Posted June 22, 2012 #16 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Never seen a list and know they change periodically. BTW since we will not really ever talk to the capt why are you so interested? HAHAHA thats is funny because though my wife and I have never TRIED to talk to the captain, both cruises we have taken we accidently have gotten to talk to him! we boarded really late in the day on Victory and actually walked with him onto the ship!!! so it can happen it happened twice with us. I guess the trick is to not want it or care! LOL He is just another person doing his job! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have always found RCCL capt's more accessible in any case. was going thru, and getting things in order with my many pics of dinner w/ Captains..some did not have hand written dates, or legible "print #'s" on back, and got to giggling about your sweet comments in thr past!!! Just wish to say, I enjoy your points of view many times over ! I guess I look fwd to my next one (Capt party-pic???) #43, in Sept, since now classified as a "Diamond" (still, somewhat in the rough!) Will decide on my 50% off cruze after January, '13...."more's the pity!!!! "...Rack forever...lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have always found RCCL capt's more accessible in any case. With just over 3000 milestone cruisers and a whole lot fewer Diamond cruisers I'm concerned that there would often be no other Diamond cruisers on the ship with us..... I don't mind chatting with the Senior officers on the Promenade during the Captains Celebration but to be invited to have dinner with them or just me and sister at a cocktail party is something that I just wouldn't be interested in doing. Plus, I rarely take cloths for elegant evening. I'm more of a slacks or capri set in the MDR and alternate venue for dining on elegant evening.

Would love to have dinner with the capt just for the experience but hopefully would be a capt with good English speaking skills or we might just sit there and stare at each other all evening.

I can think of nothing that would make me feel more uncomfortable than to be invited to a private cocktail party with the senior officers. I'm with you. On our first cruise we got VIP status and got invited to a captain's cocktail party because I set up our meet and greet. Didn't go. Second cruise we were in a suite and got invited to a special party. Didn't go. Guess I should have for the free drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
