American Bear Posted May 1, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Simple, which crew do you rank as your favorite? Our opinion, the Freedom!:D Whats yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipLondon Posted May 1, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Unfortunately as various members of a crew get moved around as they open new ships, it is hard to say who is the best team. Usually you will have the best of the best on the newest ship. Many of the crew from Quantum recently got moved to Anthem, who have a brilliant take out crew. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missus Makkem Posted May 1, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Will echo ChipLondons post, when on Anthem we met quite a few crew members we knew from other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our experience has been that those on Her Majesty, seem to know that since the ship has less WOW factor, they step up to fill the gap in 'personality'. I will also say that sometimes the staff may not have as much of a charismatic leader in the CD, but the rest of the entertainment staff compensates for it well. Then sometimes you seem to click with one or two members of the staff more than others and have a great time with them in the various events that they host or participate in. There has never been a sailing that we did not have a fun/efficient wait staff or efficient housekeeping staff -- that doesn't mean everything was perfect, but they did try to make it so, from what they could do -- and that is all I can ask!

Royal2464 Posted May 1, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Another vote for Freedom. Michael Rasmussen runs a great hotel crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules815 Posted May 1, 2015 #7 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Monarch. Mariner, when in Port Canaveral. Agree about Mariner while in PC. Fond memories of that ship. It was our very first cruise, and we sailed on her for 4 years in a row, last one being a Mexican Riviera itinerary out of Los Angeles in 2009. Exceptional service, and Captain Johnny.

American Bear Posted May 1, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Monarch. Mariner, when in Port Canaveral. Ah, the days of the sail away party/buffet on the pool deck leaving Nassau at 11.59(?).:) The party atmosphere in the Monarch's casino (especially on that sea day)seemed always the most fun.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
