EZ4 Posted June 23, 2014 #26 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) It doesn't matter what ship name is stamped into the label anymore, they're all a Dream class on the stick. Be sure to hit JH up for one. Most times you will get one. That's what he does as the BA. And contrary to those who think you didn't earn it, it IS a lot of work to have to navigate through the KAN at his page to get one. ;) Edited June 23, 2014 by EZ4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosiegirl Posted June 23, 2014 #28 Share Posted June 23, 2014 For us the cruise isn't complete until you have won the first ship on a stick....definitely have to earn one playing trivia on every cruise I agree.. earning one playing trivia or one of the other activities on the ship far far outweighs USING John Heald to get one..

Using him? That's absurd... As a brand ambassador, handing out trophies is part of his job description. Simply take a look at his Facebook wall or blog.

I'd like to know the protocol for "using" him Edited June 23, 2014 by uz2teech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to know the protocol for "using" him A couple days before you sail, give him your ship, sail date and cabin number on his FB page. Usually he will get it to you. Sometimes it falls through the cracks. Dream is very hit or miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, JH does get used a lot, but he also gets paid well to do what he does and have to put up with everything that he does. He smiles, laughs, jokes and acts interested when people tell him about their angelic 4.0 honor student who is the youngest mega diamond cruiser on the planet. I also feel badly for him, but he gets paid to do that, and I don't. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart Arsenal Fan Posted June 30, 2014 #45 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Well, I am a Platinum Trophy Winner..... Carnival doesn't care about us repeat trophy winners! After we spend all our hard earned time, earning a trophy.... They now just offer them to all these newbies!!!! :mad: I swear its a slap in the face! What happened to our promised Trophy Loyalty Program that Heald promised us!??!!! That's it, I'm taking my trivia talents over to NCL where I know for a fact they sprinkle rose petals in front of trivia masters! :mad: :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise life Posted July 1, 2014 #47 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Currently there are 21 offerings on eBay ranging from 2-200 bucks and reflecting ten different ships, plus one from "Circle C". I didn't know the kid's club had their own ships on a stick! And who is selling one for $200, LOL? The platinum strawberries are nice, but the truffles are better!!
