If Katie Knowles hasn't already taken over on Anthem then she will be in the next few days

Just to confirm this, Katie has now taken over as CD on Anthem. Michelle has moved to Quantum, I’m not sure if she has taken over as CD yet though, can anyone confirm this?

ODYSSEY: Jamie Fentiman 3-10-24 #1278, Ana Ribeiro 5-5-24 #1414, Ricky Matthews 1-17-24/1-16-25 #1273

 

For my Jan. 5, 2025 Odyssey cruise, that means Ana will be the CD? And that's her last assignment?

May to January is MUCH longer than a usual CD run.  There will most likely be someone else splitting that time before Ricky returns.  So, as they say, stay tuned for more info.

How long is a usual CD run?

[GlasgowCruiser01]

Pretty sure Ricky joins Odyssey in November when the ship goes to Bayonne.

 

Not sure if Ana sticks around until then though.

[PG_Cruiser]

Daniel Turner commented on his FB yesterday (May 23) that he's going back to Liberty in two weeks. Not sure of the exact date.

EDIT:  Ooops ... he just said he's coming back to Liberty. No time frame given.

No. That's why this thread is here . Members post what they hear and Deltablue updates the thread.

Just off Wonder yesterday. With the caveat that we don't pay much attention to our CD, we had no problem with him. He didn't stand out for anything in particular but was friendly, had energy, etc. He's Australian.

[PG_Cruiser]

Per Brian Leavit's post on FB, he will be on Radiance.  6/14/24 - 8/2/24
