Does anybody have current list for Encore?

Pic from December below. I know that most of them weren't planning on going anywhere for awhile (though not sure about vacations). We specifically asked quite a few.

Will Alain still be on next month?  He is a good man.

 

Who is the Cruise Next Manager.   Last year it was Juan from Mexico.   He called himself 

Dawn Juan.

Alain came onboard on January 17.

CruiseNext Manager is Glenn Benedicto. Think he is here for a while longer.

Cheers!

When in December was that?  Nicklas Persson was at Captain when we sailed just before Christmas.

Had dinner with Alain yesterday evening in Le Bistro. He was in fine form. Super person and a very good GM. Enjoy your upcoming cruise.
Cheers!

It seems like Alain always picks Le Bistro when having dinner with passengers.  Also, he doesn't simply host a dinner party, he "holds court."  We've been fortunate to enjoy dinners with more than two dozen NCL officers over the years.  One of the best we've ever experienced was with Alain.  He was in fine form and made for a very enjoyable evening.

We are going on the Jewel in early April (2-9).  Hoping to get a preview of senior officers and staff, including concierge.

 

We loved the Jewel and her crew last April so much that we are repeating a ship for the first time.

 

TIA

We had dinner with him last week at Le Bistro, and I agree he "holds court".  A charming man and a wonderful dining experience.
