jaja Posted March 30, 2014 #252 Share Posted March 30, 2014 What I have in mind is to edit in posted info into the Fleet Sheet once a month. But, it should ONLY be included if the poster is reporting a known fact not a rumor or a maybe. So, it's important that the posters indicate whether it is something they know is true or just a possiblility. and I thank you for your efforts :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincessBubbles Posted March 30, 2014 #256 Share Posted March 30, 2014 We were on the Gem this past January. We also Loved Carlos he is an excellent concierge. He made himself available to assist passengers, and never made you feel like you were putting him out. He was also a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mypleasure Posted March 31, 2014 #261 Share Posted March 31, 2014 My PleasureAm I correct, from the wording of your post, that your info falls into the "maybe" catagory? I do not normally bother with this thread but as I am sailing in 2 weeks I decided to look. I was on board for the Jan 6th sailing and will sail again in 2 weeks time. I saw Orazio Caci listed as Hotel Director and in an email to me in December he said he hoped to see me on the morning of 6th Jan but he was leaving that day and Armando was returning so I knew your facts were wrong and added some information. Sorry I did that... Kim Karlsson said he was leaving the ship in February and Vanja would be returning. They are due to switch over again in early May. Francesco told me he is going on leave in May around the 18th I think he said. He left the Spirit for 4 weeks while she was in Dry Dock to help out on Breakaway then returned. Armando joined the ship on 6th of Jan and told me he was staying to the end of the Canary Isles runs and for the first Barcelona to Venice cruise, leaving at Venice. Those are facts. Armando and Francesco are both on the Spirit, I got an email from Armando only last week. He told me he was looking forward to seeing me on April 15. I may return towards the end of April and name ALL of the officers on Norwegian Spirit from the 15th April sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snorklinbarb Posted March 31, 2014 #262 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Could someone from a recent sailing update Uniall's list? We know Jenny Lim (HD) and Carlos (concierge) have just returned from vacation but the rest of the chart is pretty much blank. Captain, F & B Dir., Restaurant Mgr, CD, Latitudes/Cruise Consultant are the main ones missing. Who is the current "Caribbean/Reggae" band? Thanks!

GORDONCHICK Posted March 31, 2014 #263 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Yannis Kazalis is HD on Jade until May 24th then he goes on vacation for 1 month and returns to Star on June 24 I went back and re-read his email, and I maybe mistook "I will be seeing my family in 2 weeks" as vacation, when they may be boarding the ship or seeing him in port. Sorry for the misinterpretation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were other people's facts that I gathered together and reported them in an oveview recap post. In some cases, the other peoples' facts were wrong OR had become out of date. That's why I posted the Last Updated date by the Ship's Name but left earlier dates next to individual officers it there was no comment on them in the latest Reports. I did not mean to offend you, in any fashion with my reply to your post. I wanted to make sure that I correctly understood your post to mean that you were not certain of the current Catpain's status. Thank you for your continued help and assistance. John Edited March 31, 2014 by Uniall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be on my first cruise on the Spirit on June 11th. While you're on your cruise, could I bother you to ask who the Captain and HD will be for the 11th June sailing? I would truly appreciate it!
