LrgPizza Posted December 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Even the person who will be the cruise director at that time doesn't yet know that he/she will be the cruise director at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted December 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2017 As pretty much said already, no one has a clue who it will be. In fact no one knows from week to week when a new one will not appear unless the present one has just signed a long contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree. Darn sure the schedule for that far out is not set. And even if it was, it can change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted December 13, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I seriously doubt that even the NCL corporate Human Resources (personnel) Dept. handling the crew scheduling have any clues this far in advance ... on whether XYZ will be offered a contract, sign the offer, transfer to another ship, or even remain with NCL. So many possibilities. I don't even care to ask who is going to be in command of the ship, namely - the captain and/or staff captain ... as they are the senior commanding officers for navigation, safety & overall operations. CD come and go, we don't book cruises on the basis of who is where ... proclaiming Bingo time, :o ;p :confused: :rolleyes: or to announce that the ship has been cleared over ship's intercom. It seemed that lately, the Breakaway has been cycling quite a # of CD rotating around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulahonney Posted December 15, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Anyone know who will be cruise director for 1/5/18. Also if Arvin and Emily will be performing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PelicanBill Posted December 15, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Off Breakaway today. I did not ask for sure but Alvin started recently and will likely still be the CD. Arvin and Emily are glued to the floor of the Atrium, pretty sure they are animatronic and permanent installations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bootman4U Posted December 15, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 15, 2017 What do people who don't like a cruise director do? Do they cancel? Book on a different ship? Just how MUCH difference does the CD actually make? I gather a significant difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just how MUCH difference does the CD actually make? I gather a significant difference. I guess if you booked a cruise just for the cruise director, you might want to cancel if that CD was not on that ship. I have never attributed a good or bad cruise to a CD, so it doesn’t matter to me who is making announcements and running the hairy chest contest.

PelicanBill Posted December 15, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I would never avoid or choose a cruise based on the CD, but I admit I have found some to be super annoying. But just as bad can be the frequency of ship-wide announcements for Bingo, art auctions, and anything else that is designed to drain your wallet. Knock it off. A reminder of activities once in a while is okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted December 16, 2017 #14 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Cruise directors are a necessary evil. We have had [many] bad CDs, but it never detracted from our enjoyment of our cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
