Thanks for letting us know Ken. Would she object to me giving the list an update? It's just been quite a while.
Joe -

 

Paulette says go for it. Once she's done with her current stuff she'll try to pick it up again

Can anyone find out what's happening on Ovation - Gordon is due for his break soon - who will be taking over, and on what date?

 

 

 

And, does anyone know the handover date on Voyager?

 

 

 

Donna

Mike Hunnerup is replacing Gordon from late Sept to 28 November

We were hoping for Joff Eaton on our 2nd November sailing on the Ovation but he joins on 28th November - what do we know about Mike Hunnerup, his name pops up now and again, but is he good, bad or indifferent, what what I read there are mixed reviews. Thank you in advance of your replies

Any idea who will succeed Graham Seymour on Explorer of the Seas? The current list shows him leaving in late November... I'm cruising in mid-December.

 

 

 

Yes, I’d like to know this too, as we are on Dec 18 sailing on Explorer. Graham was CD on our March cruise and he was great - a very funny man!

We had him on the Navigator a couple of years ago.

Our group nicknamed him MDF Mike. He had all the charisma of a plank.

Does anyone know how long Abe Hughes will be on Symphony when he takes it over on Nov. 9th? He started Aug 25th on Harmony.. do they just do 3 or 4 months before break?

He goes on vacation somewhere around Feb. 1st. Got that from him when I asked if he'd be on the 2/9 sailing.

I just heard that Drew Pavlov is coming back to the Anthem in Oct. and will be on for a couple of months. Anybody know anything? We have sailed with Drew on the Liberty and the Anthem before and it would be great to cruise with him again. So I know the CC people will know because we are the smartest cruisers out there. We are cruising a b2b on Oct. 27. We had a blast with Drew on the Halloween Liberty cruise and hoping to entertained by him again. Thank you, Keith:cool:

Thank you Donna K. I didn't see your prior CD listing. We are happy to hear Drew will be on. He is very good. We didn't wear costumes the last time, but will not make that mistake again.

They can't put a official CD schedule because they moved the CD around sometimes for example Chris brown was schedule to be on anthem now they switched that now is Dru coming to anthem .

Of course they could do it, other cruise lines do it as well, even for all Senior Officers.
