garnetpalmetto Posted July 20, 2015 #3153 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Donna, Just noticed that I think Lixin Fang should properly be listed as Fang Lixin based on his RCI biography. Also, anybody have any comments on Drew Devine? DW, friends, and I are going on Oasis in October and it's always nice to have an idea of a CD's personality (and thus what the guest program is like).

Love to Ski Posted July 20, 2015 #3159 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hi, Donna! Let me echo many others and say you are truly an asset to this board. Keeping this list is time consuming and you deserve a lot of positive reinforcement. I think we all appreciate what you do. May I ask a question. I see the CD for Serenade is aboard for the European sailings. When do you think there will be a change and when do you think it might be announced? We board Serenade in April and are very curious as to who will be CD. Though it is not a deal breaker. When we did our 3 cruises on the Serenade in April and May Carly Boileau was the CD and she was terrific. She said she was hoping to be back on that ship in the fall as she lives in New Brunswick and could visit with her husband in many of the ports. We sure hope it will be her when we do the Snowbird Migration cruise and the one following. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUISEBOY305 Posted July 20, 2015 #3162 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Mitch is very personable, high energy and lots of fun.

We sure hope it will be her when we do the Snowbird Migration cruise and the one following. Judy I guess it shows how tastes/expectations vary. Without trying to found mean, I put her as my least favorite of all time. She did the love and Marriage show between dinner seatings so it was only 15 minutes. Her quest was G rated and very dull. I kind of thought she phoned it in our week and let Elvis her AD do most of the real work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had her on the Serenade in March and I mentioned how phony she was on another thread here on Cruise Critic and was attacked. :) However, I stand by that comment. Maybe in real life she is a wonderful person but as a CD I am also not impressed and would not want to have her again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you were on Jewel 2-3 weeks after us. I couldn't agree more. Didn't I read her Elvis was becoming a CD after a vacation maybe?

Love to Ski Posted July 22, 2015 #3175 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Sorry to hear most folks didn't like Carly! I did get the feeling that she was friendly with us because we are Canadian as is her husband so we had some mutual things to discuss. We don't go to a lot of the shows so can't really comment on those. Had dinner with her one evening and really enjoyed visiting with her. She even came to the cocktail time before dinner. Oh well, cruising is great and we all have our favourite ships, staff, crew, etc. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
