FLcruisergrl Posted September 2, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) As cruising starts back up, I’m wondering where some of my favorites are. Thought I would start a thread where we could post who is on what ship. I’m curious where Hanno, Gian, Rodwin, and Jane are. We never actually got to cruise with Jane, but she was to be our last butler on the March 13, 2020 cruise on the Sun that got shut down just before sailing. I could tell in the hour we spent with her that she was going to be excellent. Anyone know if they are still with NCL and on what ships?

SwimmingDragon Posted September 13, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 13, 2021 My favorite Mixologist, Sefano, won't be on my cruise. But I'm also in touch with him, so that's why I know. What I want to know is who's tending Breakaways bar in the Haven?!!! I hope they have an amazing Mixologist again. I was spoiled last time. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be impossible to miss Hanno. He stands about 6' 5" or so. Sparkling eyes. Really sweet. He boards The Bliss when they dock in LA on the 6th of October.

As 3Traveler said…He’s hard to miss! On our PC cruise, when he found out that the day we were transiting the Canal was my daughter’s birthday. He made sure to have the photographer that was on shore take pics of my daughter on the front balcony and then gave her a lovely momento folder with her pic on one side and the Bliss going through the Canal on the other.

colecandler Posted March 16, 2022 #23 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Jennifer was our butler on the Escape last week. She was superb. Went out of her way to help us and was so nice. David, as previously noted, is the concierge and was excellent. The whole staff in the Haven on Escape was fantastic. The Haven Restaurant staff especially. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mconthehighseas Posted March 16, 2022 #24 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Thank you everyone. I am using your updates and one I found on the Haven thread: Bliss - Meyer Hanno as of 10/24/21 (Hanno may be in Germany now)Breakaway - Virginia Brotheron thru June 5, 2022 Butler - Alan Gamara Dawn - Patrick thru May or June Encore - BicaEpic - Roel Escape - David Newball Butler - Maria / Jennifer Getaway - Omar Butler - Renalto Joy - Efren Butler - Teresa -----------------------------------------------------QUESTIONS About how many rooms does a butler take care of? It would make sense to me that there are more than one for the Haven suites; is that the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week our butler Jeffery took care of all the forward facing cabins so I think that was 12 over 6 decks. This week he ls looking after all the aft facing ones so there be 2 extra. They rotate every cruise round certain types of cabins so that it is fair. So I'm guessing they will also do one side of a deck in the haven and so forth Edited March 16, 2022 by Yinster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
