YoungDiamond Posted May 20, 2009 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hey cruisers, I will be sailing on the Enchantment in a little less than two weeks. If you have questions that you would like me to find out I would be happy to do so. We are going to Grand Cayman and Cozumel, the five nighter. If you have any past experiences or cool things you have seen on the ship post em' here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_n_Sara Posted May 20, 2009 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Just got off Enchantment on Saturday, you will enjoy it. The food in the MDR was better than we have gotten from other RCI ships including Liberty. The staff was very good and friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailingawaysoon Posted May 20, 2009 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Don't forget to grab some great t-shirts in Margaritaville when in Grand Cayman. They had some neat new things in their store. Have an awesome cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkard Posted May 20, 2009 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2009 We just booked the 12-night Enchantment for 2010 Is there a CL on there for Diamond members? What additional was added to Enchantment during the stretch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo70 Posted May 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2009 We just booked the 12-night Enchantment for 2010 Is there a CL on there for Diamond members? What additional was added to Enchantment during the stretch? FYI: The CL starting later in '09 is going to be restricted to only Diamond Plus and people staying in full suites (i.e. categories above a junior suite).

bluecookies Posted May 21, 2009 #8 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'd like to know who the cruise director is??? The cruise director is Marc Walker who was really good. He will only be on there for the next three weeks. We just got off the Enchantment today so anything else ask away before I forget! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
engineer24 Posted May 21, 2009 #9 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Did Marc Walker say where he was going? He is an outstanding cruise director We have been on Enchantment 3 times and enjoyed each cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecelia0613 Posted May 22, 2009 #10 Share Posted May 22, 2009 The cruise director is Marc Walker who was really good. He will only be on there for the next three weeks. We just got off the Enchantment today so anything else ask away before I forget! We are considering Enchantment for next July with a family of picky eaters. Do you remember how often the food place in the solarium was open for burgers and pizza? I cruised Enchantment before it was stretched so it will be cool to take another trip on her!

KarinaGW Posted May 22, 2009 #11 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I'm pretty sure that when marc leaves in 3 weeks, it's just for his rotational time off. It seems like it's about that time. I love him to pieces. Enchantment is my absolutely favorite ship. Technically, she's a vision class ship, but the stretch added in the CL and a Chops restaurant. The pool deck is also much prettier because they got to add some really nice design structures. I have pix of Enchantment if you click her link in my sig.

bluecookies Posted May 22, 2009 #12 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I can't be sure where Marc is going, he didn't really say. I caught a hint that he might be headed to a different cruise line, but I could be VERY wrong about that. Glancing at one of our compasses, the solarium food service is open from 11:00am to 6:30pm then again from 10:30pm to 3:00am. We ate in their every night between 10:30 and about 2:00 in the morning. Loved the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamFritz Posted May 22, 2009 #13 Share Posted May 22, 2009 So, I'm going to be on Enchantment at the End of July. Will we have: Marc, back fresh from a nice vacation, Some substitute who is filling in while Marc is sitll on his nive vacation, or someone new to the ship and crew? Also, let me know if the Elini Trio is playing in the Centrum. I always loved listening to them for a half hour or so after the evening show.

Also, let me know if the Elini Trio is playing in the Centrum. I always loved listening to them for a half hour or so after the evening show. I really can't answer the first one. I believe most of the crew has six and eight month contracts (a few four months). If Marc is coming back to the Enchantment my inclination would say you might miss him unless he works 10 months with two off. None of my compasses have the Elini Trio, but rather the Evergreen Trio.

KarinaGW Posted May 22, 2009 #15 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I shot him an email to find out what the word was. sadly, this is the response. I'm happy for him, but sad for all of us RCCLers who will miss him. Hi Karina, Nice to hear from you. Yes i do have some news which you may share with CC. I am leaving RCL in 3 weeks to join DCL. My final cruise will be June 8-13. I then take 10 days off and join the the Disney team for training. My position will be CD in Training on the Magic for my first contract ( they don't throw you in immediately as they need to teach all new employees the Disney traditions etc etc ). I live in Orlando so i can be home more regularly even when on the Magic. It will be sad leaving here after 13 years but there is always a chance i may return : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plut0 Posted May 22, 2009 #16 Share Posted May 22, 2009 There is another thread that indicates Marc is transfering to DCL Magic. We are on the Enchantment on June 13 so I will let you know who the new CD is for that sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise*enthusiast Posted May 23, 2009 #17 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Sailing on EOS in November. Does anyone know if that ship has a Baby Splash Pool. I understand that it's the only pool that allows swim-diapers. My niece has a son that isn't potty trained yet. If not, she'll probably just bring an inflatable one. We all have aft cabins. Think she can fit one on the balcony? Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sailed on the Enchantment about 18 months ago and the CD always went "Bing Bong" when he came on before he made the announcements...lol...to this day my daughter and I do the "bing bong" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
