Thrak Posted May 17, 2022 #303 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Disembarked Royal Princess on May 14th. CD was Kevin Tugwell. He was great. However, the Wake Show had no trivia or shout outs or any of that sort of passenger participation. Other than that he was great. Also, the entire Assistant CD staff was a bunch of standouts. Truly excellent. We were very happy with them all. Smart, funny, approachable, etc. describes them all. What a great reintroduction to cruising. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The abbreviated wake show is the same on all ships since the return. Corporate directive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hopefully boarding the Crown Princess next Saturday and will do a live, it’s first sailing since the pause. I believe your sailing is the first back for the Royal? Lauren is also on the Majestic (cruise staff), she’s also absolutely fabulous and if she does her history lecture, I encourage you to go. Thanks for doing the live from....looking forward to hearing and sharing your experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just off Enchanted princess and Matt Barnard ( in picture bottom right above this post by dides) did shout outs and trivia via the app that he picked up from ....some how in the office and read them out ...gave spa prizes and champagne ...jokes and was quite funny ....a bit like the old days ...I would definitely be happy if he was CD on any ships I was on in future. I always try to like the wake show but sometimes it ain't good ..but Matts Wake shows were worth watching.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours was the first cruise for Royal Princess and people may still be feeling their way. Like you, we try to "like" the Wake Show but agree that sometimes its not good. Our last cruise before the shutdown had the absolute worst Wake Show (and worst CD staff overall) that we have ever encountered. While the Wake Show was a disappointment on this last cruise the CD staff was fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Chatterer Posted June 3, 2022 #312 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Pray that you don't get Olivia Guthrie on your cruise. At one point on the Island Princess two weeks ago she started reading her Princess Theater jokes off of her little cue card, Seriously. That may be because very few in the audience ever laughed at her feeble attempt to tell off-the-cuff jokes. On the Wake show she acted like a silly teenager. Guthrie would serve Princess better by working in the kid's club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanr204 Posted June 10, 2022 #314 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) Aaron Hawkins has gone on leave from the Regal as off June 28th and been replaced with Dan France. He’s apparently new to Princess but has been with other cruise lines. First impressions weren’t good but we’ve slowly warmed up to him. We found out last night he’s a very accomplished opera singer.

Did you hear when he is coming back after leave? Any other changes? A photo like Post #315 is quite helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These boards exist on all ships, usually on Promenade Deck 7 somewhere near mid-ship. I have a suggestion for the Moderators and tagging @Host CJSKIDS in particular since she is our official Princess "hostess-with-the-mostest" (Jimmy Durante I think coined that). We have this thread which was made a sticky. We have also had MD/DRO thread and a Captain's thread - if you can find them. My suggestion is to rename this "sticky" thread something like Princess Senior Ship Staff and that CC members post these photos, along with ship name, and those of us interested can look-up who is working on any ship of interest. In this way, we have one thread capturing all the senior staff and then no one necessarily has to create and fill in table charts in thread posts of names which quickly go out of date. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea @Steelers36 thanks for the suggestion. It’s been renamed. Please continue to post information and share the pictures taken on the ships. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. We disembarked Royal Princess on May 14th and, at that time, Kevin Tugwell was the cruise director. He was fine as CD except that his Wake Show was nothing worth watching. We like it when the Wake Show has a funny and engaged CD and has daily trivia questions, etc. Other than a boring Wake Show though Kevin was actually very good.

I'd love to know the percentage of people that watch the Wake Show. I didn't even consider watching it when I was scrolling across the tv on our recent Emerald cruise. At a guess I'd say well under 10% watch it. I've never heard it mentioned when we have met up with a group on cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
