DonnaK Posted May 25, 2016 Author #1231 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Would Patricio Honores continue through September 2016? Probably not. He is currently doing a 2 month fill-in on Rhapsody, so his assignment on Oasis is likely a 2 month fill-in as well (together, it's a 4 month contract split between two ships, which is the typical length). Unless Drew unexpectedly gets reassigned, then he should be back on Oasis around the end of August for 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted May 25, 2016 Author #1232 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Mariner OTS - I believe his name is Fang Lixin (not Lixin Fang). It depends on whether or not he uses the traditional Chinese way of last name first, or the westernized way. I've seen it listed both ways.

(Or, is Steve staying on a bit longer?) Vision: Does Mike's break start this Saturday? To whom will he be handing over CD duties? Bill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanoudi Posted June 2, 2016 #1247 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Does that mean Drew Devine will be on Oasis OTS during Christmas if he is coming back end of August? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted June 2, 2016 Author #1248 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Does that mean Drew Devine will be on Oasis OTS during Christmas if he is coming back end of August? His contracts are usually 4 months, so it will depend upon which date in August he returns. Unless his usual pattern changes, or he unexpected gets reassigned.
