campdaan Posted October 1, 2006 #53 Share Posted October 1, 2006 We have had fill-in CD's for 2 of the 3 Cruises we have taken. These second bananas were better than the "Pro" Brett Alans. Carlo Lombard was on the Glory. Witty, Full of energy, I'd sail with him again in a heartbeat. His only problem was it seemed that he was thrust into the CD posistion and had to borrow his suits. They were a few sizes to big. I wonder where Carlo is now ? Jen Baxter was on the Legend while Brett Alans was headed for the Valor. I've never seen a bad word about her.She was awesome. Now for a twist. We had a young married couple as social hosts on the Legend. Andrew and Julia. They would be a great pick for our "Not quite the CD" Cruises. Where are they now ? Any sightings? SOTADRAGON---Did you get to read "Devils in the Deep Blue Sea" yet ? I thought it was a great book about the nuts and bolts of the Cruise industry. A must read for us cruise addicts.

CaribbeanCrazy Posted October 1, 2006 #54 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Todd Whittmer...outgoing & personable. Without the usual corny over the top personality of a lot CDs. He also didn't seem like a phony like some of them. He would always say hello whenever our paths crossed on the ship. CaribbeanCrazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee-mate Posted October 1, 2006 #55 Share Posted October 1, 2006 We cruised on the Carnival Triumph in Sept. of 2000 (this was our wedding cruise as we were married on the ship in Miami). Our Cruise Director was John Heald. He was great. We (my DW and I) cruised on the Carnival Conquest from the Big Easy on Sept. 14. 2003, loved the cruise as well as the Cruise Director (Corey Schmidt). We found out he has left Carnival - is this true? Does anyone know where he is????? We were on the Carnival Glory on its Eastern Caribbean cruise this September 16th., and then we had Mark Price as Cruise Director. He was great as well. Really can't say anything bad about them, they were all great in their own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theos on the go Posted October 1, 2006 #56 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Our favorite was Corey on the Conquest. I liked his bird show (which I heard he took the show to Vegas). But was so great about Corey was that he acknowledged passengers. He always said "Hi . . . Enjoying yourselves?" etc. He was a really friendly cruise director. I really liked that.

hstrybuf Posted October 1, 2006 #57 Share Posted October 1, 2006 This one is easy. Two years ago, Navigator of the Seas, Ken Rush. The worst? Brett Allans on the Carnival Legend. The difference between the two was like night and day. I really loved Ken and absolutely hated Brett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a great book about the nuts and bolts of the Cruise industry. A must read for us cruise addicts. I'm borrowing it from the library right now, but I haven't had a chance to start reading yet. Hopefully I'll get to start tonight or tomorrow. :) I can renew it up to 3 times for 21 days each time, so I should have plenty of time to read it.

Hopefully I'll get to start tonight or tomorrow. :) I can renew it up to 3 times for 21 days each time, so I should have plenty of time to read it. Enjoy. I had a hard time putting it down. It's amazing how a guy basically took a tiny ship on borrowed time and money and turned into a billion dollar enterprise and how the the other lines developed into what they are today. Please let us know what you think when you finish. Perhaps we can start a thread on it.(And watch it get moved to the Floataway Lounge):D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wavecruiser Posted October 4, 2006 #65 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I would have to say Wee Jimmy on the Pride. He is, hands down, the most memorable CD. He's a true character and can make even the most mundane things funny. I'll always remember (sorry, I just have to write this) when he played a stripper during the "cruise line is it anyway" game...he started stripping on stage, then gave a male passenger a lap dance. I love you Weeeeee Jimmy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c&d Posted October 4, 2006 #66 Share Posted October 4, 2006 We had Wee Jimmy in may on the Senastion he was great and funny, also have chris on the miracle first of sept he was ok, very nice guy... who is the Cd on the Glory, i have that cruise in about 40 days..... Hey Cruiser for life. Are you packed and ready for the Glory? I put all the junk I will take again on Victory in laundry basket so I am ready in a few weeks. I have to agree Chris did a good job. We also had a great CC group. Can not beleive how many of us from that group have up coming cruises. Bye Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shungirl Posted October 4, 2006 #67 Share Posted October 4, 2006 John Heald is the best!! I have sailed with him several times, but the best was on the Triumph. I was crying I was laughing so hard at the bed time story. He is HILARIOUS!! (and not cheesy at all) I also love Wee Jimmy, who was on the Triumph with him at that time. I absolutely hated the guy on the Conquest on our honeymoon. (August 22, 2004). He looked like a bobble head, and was the cheesiest person I have ever seen.

gr81 Posted October 4, 2006 #68 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Our favorite to date is Simon Prendergast. He was the CD on our first cruise on the Holiday in 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy about cruising Posted October 4, 2006 #70 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Mark Price by far the best I have sailed with. Brent Mitchell and Vance Palm- the absolute worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgrgirl20 Posted October 4, 2006 #71 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I have only been on one cruse so far - The Conquest on 9/17/06. Our CD Was Todd Wittmer. He was hilarious!!! I had a blast with Deal or No Deal Bingo and The Newlywed Not So Newlywed Game. The assistant cruise director Pete was awesome!!!! I will never think of the number six the same way again. Anyone know anything about him??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet_Misery Posted October 4, 2006 #72 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I have had Michael & Jeni Mullane (The Spirit), Maraschal Stanton (The Inspiration), Dana Hodson (The Victory), and Brett Alans (The Valor). Out of those 4, Michael & Jeni Mullane was the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn77 Posted October 4, 2006 #74 Share Posted October 4, 2006 The worst we have had was as good as the best we have had. They've all been the same to me. Same jokes,same stories, same games,same at pushing the company services and products with constant intercom garbage(and must attend meetings). Can't blame them for any of it. It's their job, but I would much rather see the shows and guest entertainers. I love cruising with Carnival and I have a great time no matter who is the CD. I've always thought that Cosmo Kramer would make a great CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
