Activity Managers onboard Royal Ships


Recommended Posts

We were on the ovation Christmas and are going 8 March.

Cris Hopkins was fabulous much better than joff,even the staff didn’t think much of joff.

Will Criss Hopkins be on ovation in March.

 

That's untrue. I know that Joff and his wife are popular with the staff from social media. He often meets up with his AM's whilst on vacation. Chris also is a good leader of his team.

 

There are some CD's who staff did not like to work for, Ken Rush being an example.

 

Chris probably won't be there in March though. I think Joff will still be there.

I don't see Tino Jackson mentioned anywhere. Anyone know what's up with him? We had him on Rhapsody and again on Harmony and he was outstanding. Sure would love to find out he is on one of my cruises!

 

He is another AM that I have had, but with it being a port intensive Med sailing on the Harmony, I just didn't get much of an opportunity to see him, so cannot judge his AM skills.

I just sent him a FB message to find out what is up with him. He was supposedly only on Ovation for a two month stint.....I hope to get an answer from him.....we will see.....I will update the thread when I know.

I just got off Ovation today as did Chris.... he was heading back to the UK for holidays, not sure what ship he’s back on next or when. BTW I absolutely loved Joff!

Don’t think so, I just got off Ovation today and it was Chris’s last cruise, he was heading him to UK but not sure for how long or what ship he’s on next. Chris was great and Joff was even better!

Chris was on Ovation for a short stint as AM due to no vacancies in the CD schedule. His next ship may be as CD again. There are multiple ships that need covering in March.

Bad news for you - Tino Jackson has left Royal now and is joining HAL in February. He will be AM for 1 contract then CD.

 

 

That is bad news for us that Tino has left. I had him as an AM on Serenade and again on the Harmony TA and he was fabulous. His TV appearances with Carly B on Serenade were hysterical!

 

 

Our lose is HAL's gain and good luck to him in his new role...he will make a fantastic Cruise Director.

Christopher John Hopkins just posted on Facebook this will be his last contract with Royal Caribbean.
