canwegonow Posted February 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 20, 2022 We'll be on the Mardi Gras' April 2 sailing, and the posted CD schedule shows Lee Mason from 2/19-7/16 and Kyndall Fire from 3/21-4/12. What generally happens when they overlap like that? Do they share CD duties? Or trade off week to week? And, no, it doesn't matter a lot to us--we haven't had either of them before but our experience with Carnival CDs has been good to excellent (with one glaring exception who's no longer with the company). I'm just curious if anyone has any insight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCruise48 Posted February 20, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2022 If it follows what we have seen in the past, the overlapping week will be handover week. Lee should be the CD on the 3/19 sailing and Kyndall will shadow him to learn the ropes to takeover on the 3/26 sailing. Since Kyndall's sign-on date is 3/21, she should be joining the cruise on day 3 in Cozumel. Lee will likely sign off on 3/26 and you should have Kyndall for your 4/2 sailing. Lee is fantastic, IMO the best current Carnival CD. We have not had Kyndall, but reports on her are good. We will be on the 3/19 and 3/26 sailings and should be able to experience both of them.

lennythenose Posted February 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I think Lee will be the cruise director. On her social media page she said “March 14th I will be heading to the Carnival Flagship MARDI GRAS to shadow my amazing colleague and even better friend Lee Your Cruise Director who will be kicking butt and taking names as CD! There is sooooo many new and exciting events, shows, and activities to see and learn so I’ll be there for about three weeks to take it all in!” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cruised with him for 24 days to Singapore and he is so much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicky3vicky Posted February 21, 2022 #11 Share Posted February 21, 2022 So, does this mean lee mason will be leaving Panorama? If so, who will replace him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted February 21, 2022 #12 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Lee is CD. Kyndall is just getting experience on the ship. She expressed a desire to be the Jubilee CD when I was on Vista in December. The same thing will happen this summer when Donkey is on with Chris Williams.

Right now the schedule has Christian De La Rosa followed by Joseph Boyes. It sure looks like the chosen ones for Mardi Gras, Celebration and Jubilee are Chris, Lee, Donkey, and Kyndall.

LakeWobegon Posted February 21, 2022 #14 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Lee just joined Chris on the Mardis Gras and will be learning the ship/program for 4 weeks before taking over and then being the CD until mid-July, according to a FB post he made this weekend.

I believe this Joseph Boyes is comedy club host Joey from my Vista cruise…and also Kyndall’s significant other. That’s quite a promotion….Promotion from comedy club host not from Kyndall’s significant other. It’s interesting his first CD job is on the second newest ship.

elmojessi Posted February 21, 2022 #17 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Oh man, last I checked Kyndall was supposed to be our CD on Vista on 3/19 and I’d heard rave reviews about her so I’m disappointed she won’t be there! So who will be on Vista instead of her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
