Activity Managers onboard Royal Ships


Recommended Posts

Just off the Grandeur this morning. John Blair announced during one of his show intros in the evening that he and Katrina would be finishing their run on the Grandeur with this sailing and would be heading on to the Anthem. Literally ended up walking right behind them as we made our way through customs.

 

I wonder if this means they are heading straight to Anthem. Dru was scheduled to be CD through June 30, then Abe Hughes was scheduled to come onboard for 4 months. Just trying to figure out where John/Katrina fits into the schedule, and what changes were made to the original plan.

 

John/Katrina have been onboard GR since March, and their break should be due around mid-July. Perhaps they are just taking over now for a short fill between now and when Abe comes onboard? (Like, maybe Dru had to leave 2 weeks earlier?)

 

Or, perhaps this means that they are headed to Anthem after their break?

 

It will be interesting to see how this unfolds.

Do you know who will be AM on Granduer in August? See from list that right now it is "Magic" Marvin. I will never do cruise with him....found him rude, crass, nasty and often vulgar. We are cruising on Granduer in August...

Thanks for this thread, appreciate it.

Based on what I have been told by Andre Miller, he is due to return to

Grandeur as AM in mid July 2016, when he returns from his vacation. Marvin was moved to Grandeur when John and Katrina Blair needed to go to Anthem in mid June. They had been scheduled to be on Grandeur until Andre Miller returned from his vacation. Could that change, yes.

 

Sometimes I receive information direct from AM's but most information comes to me from cruisers on board ships.

On the Cruise Compass, it lists Christopher Hopkins as the Entertainment Host rather than AM.

Katrina Blair is the AM. Christopher Hopkins was filling that role before Katrina arrived with her husband John as the CD. Christopher has only said to me, he is remaining on the ship, until he gets another assignment. I have never heard of the title of Entertainment Host on any other ship.

Activities or entertainment host is the new designation on Celebrity where their activities staff consists of. The Cruise director, activities manager and one activities host that run all of the games etc. this may be the way of the Future fir RcCl as well. I cringe when I hear the Royal activities staff complain about being bUSY as it can very easily be the Celebrity situation on Royal!!

Christopher Hopkins I believe was only on the ship with Katrina and John Blair or a very short while and perhaps just given the title until he left for vacation.

 

So to others 'sailing away on the high seas with Royal' who is your Activity Manager onboard with you?

The best information on the Activity Managers on board Royal ships comes from cruisers. I have some of my own resources, but YOU THE CRUISER, are the best.

 

Who has been on your recent sailings? Even add some of your experiences with that Activity Manager, add some fun things that you did while onboard.

From the CD thread:

I spoke to John Blair last week while aboard Anthem and he said he will be going to Liberty after his vacation.

 

Katrina will be going to Liberty after her break, which should be around the end of Oct/beginning of Nov

Katrina and John departed Anthem on August 11 as Abe Hughes was able to return earlier than expected from shoulder surgery. No idea who the current AM is, but I don't think it will be Chris Hopkins as he left Anthem shortly after my cruise (I disembarked July 9) and it would be unusual to take only a 1 month vacation.

Paulette: Cuddy will be filling-in as CD on Freedom beginning August 21 for a few weeks until Casey Pelter returns from his short break. No word on who will be the AM during that timeframe.
