Orator Posted August 19, 2013 #1851 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) Bradley is acting HD on SI i understand, then Christophe takes over as his permanent ship.Sue Richardson is joining the SL on 7th Sept as her permanent ship (seeing her at the w/e) Alejandro is CD on RF I was told on Saturday (by HD) covering for Damien - moved over around 2 weeks ago. Julian goes back to RF on Oct 4th and as you probably know Bernhard has gone to the Independence (as of 10th Aug) Bernhard is among the very, very best. Dining at one of his Captain's Tables was a real treat. Will miss seeing him on Celebrity. Edited August 19, 2013 by Orator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xfedcruiser Posted August 19, 2013 #1854 Share Posted August 19, 2013 In February, Donna Trembath told us she would be CC hostess on the Silhouette when we sail Oct. 8. On speculation, she might fill in that white space in the chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanfran4me Posted August 22, 2013 #1859 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Can someone share how/where you get these charts? Is there one for the September sailing of the Solstice, Ensenada to HI as well as the October sailing, HI to Sydney? Rich Clesen says he is joining the Solstice tomorrow as CD but only for one or two weeks, then is joining the (limping) Millennnium as it heading for the Bahamas for repairs. Thanks.

C 2 C Posted August 22, 2013 Author #1860 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) Can someone share how/where you get these charts? Is there one for the September sailing of the Solstice, Ensenada to HI as well as the October sailing, HI to Sydney? I make up the charts based on the information provided by returning cruisers. I saw Rich's post as well but few of my contacts post on fb as Rich does. Sue Richardson will soon replace JW Kuipers for your Solstice Cruise.

daviddfld Posted August 24, 2013 #1862 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Does anyone know the whereabouts these days of the Weir brothers, Simon & Nick?

Rare Lois R Posted August 24, 2013 #1863 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Does anyone know the whereabouts these days of the Weir brothers, Simon & Nick? The last I heard, Simon had traded ships for CEL corporate life in Miami. Haven't heard anything about Nick. The last time I saw both of them was in December on Reflection's 3 night Inaugural sailing. Don't know what they are doing on a "regular basis".

Rare Presto2 Posted August 25, 2013 #1870 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi, just got off the Silhouette and staff were as follows: Capt: Emmanouil Alevropoulos - who was fantastic Staff Capt: Vittori Cantu Guest Relations Manager : Cameron Robertson Chief Engineer: Konstantinos Pechlivanidis Hotel Director: Bradley Pavlik Cruise Director: Lisa Richards - the best we've had yet Activities Manager : Tyler (can't remember his last name but he was fabulous!) Food and Beverages Manager: Koray Savas - very high profile Executive Chef: Anthony Wilson - the food was the best so far. Have to say, out of 3 cruises on Silhouette it was the best one yet. Thanks to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcgold Posted August 25, 2013 #1871 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi, I thought Esperanza was a Activity Staff member? Has she been promoted to cruise director now? If so does anyone know when? Thanks, Esperanza was CD on Solstic may 2013. Most inconspicous and ineffective CD imaginable:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikillas Posted August 25, 2013 #1872 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Esperanza was CD on Solstic may 2013. Most inconspicous and ineffective CD imaginable:( Now that does surprise me.

I just can't imagine her ever being inconspicuous or ineffective! Not just me that said it. In fact one of the very experienced F & B staff said it was the first cruise he had been on without a CD !

Tony UK Posted August 25, 2013 #1874 Share Posted August 25, 2013 We love Simon and Nick. Good to hear they are still linked with Celebrity.
