[derf5585]

Is "Captain Gigliotti" still he Captain of the Carnival Miracle?

He was in July.

He was our Captain on Pride 8/29.

He was our Captain on Pride 8/29.

I wonder if he was moved after the ABANDON SHIP incident?

[Lefty1]

no he did not leave after incident on abandon ship - i was on miracle 8/21 - incident happened 8/20 - the reason he went to other ship 8/29 is because miracle had to be slightly repaired. once i got off ship, miracle sailed away empty to have repairs and then sailing out of baltimore - not sure if he will be joining her then

I used to know some Americans of Italian decent that that was their last name. They did not prounce their name the way he did though-they pronounced it Ja-lot-ti-but then too they spoke no Italian either as their family had been in the US for several generations. I thought it was neat though when I was on the Miracle and heard his name pronounced- I could not help but think that his American cousins had pronounced their name differently.

 

That happens alot though I guess. I have friends whose last name is Guterriz from California-they know no spanish-don't even look hispanic as far as that goes-but prounounce their name very differently from most hispanics.

I finally found my Capers, and yes, Captain Gaetano Gigliotti was the captain on 9/5 Miracle from Baltimore. Sorry it took so long to find them.

I'm on the Miracle right now and he is the captain. he has done an excellent job of keeping us out of the weather and in smooth waters. it is a good cruise so far 2 days left and we are back in Baltimore

[pshaze]

27123.....who is the cruise director on the Miracle right now?

[27123]

Sorry i have a drink in my hand i think his name is mark hawkins a very funny guy (doesn't know how to match his shoes though!)

[SSSkipper]

I was just on the Pride a week ago and thought he was our captain. I don't think I brought home any capers to verify but I know his last name was the same, maybe he had a different first name.:confused:

[INCHARGE]

Could there be two? I know for a fact that on the Miracle 9/5, his name was Captain Gaetano Gigliotti per the Capers. Maybe that is a common last name. It will be interesting if you find one of your Capers to verify. Brothers, perhaps? :)

[morriscats]

We were on the Pride 8/29 and I thought he was our Captain. Upon looking at a Capers, his name was Alessandro Galotto. Similar but not the same.

[SSSkipper]

morriscats, thanks for clearing that up! I didn't bring back any capers, but after you posted his name...I knew that was it. So similar, but not the same!:p
