Explorer - Joe took over from Amy on the second leg of my B2B.

3/30/2017.

I don't know how long his contract would be.

 

Thanks Aussie FF -- When Joe took over from Amy she was going on vacation, which is generally two months. That would mean Amy should be returning around 5/30. Amy did concur with me that she was expecting to return to Explorer after her vacation.....so now that I know the exact day her vacation handover happened....I have a reasonable expectation of a return date. Hopefully in a few weeks a cruiser will let me know for sure, if Amy herself doesn't. When she returns it should be for a 4 month contract as she is supposed to be the regular AM on this ship.

There is some confusion as to WHAT ship Amy Tripp will be returning to.....what probably is correct is her return date of around 5/30/17. Unsure at this time whether she is going to Allure or Explorer.....even she is now unsure....so cruisers -- PLEASE be on the lookout for Amy Tripp....and let me know when you see her onboard.

I spoke to Joe on our last sea day on Explorer and he confirmed that he will be on the ship until August. His family name is Chambers.

Katrina Blair might not be returning to Liberty as Drew Devine has confirmed that LB will be his next ship. For now, she is still scheduled to cover Margot's break on Radiance, unless someone else gets that assignment, but I assume that she and John will be off the ship by the time it returns to Australia.

John and Katrina Blair generally work as CD/AM combo on ships. As John is going to be covering Steve Davis vacation, Katrina likely will be with him on Radiance.

That's what I am saying, John will cover Steve's vacation and Katrina will cover Margot's vacation. I would imagine that the Blairs are off the Radiance by the time it heads back to Australia.

Katie Turner signed off Voyager today.

Katrina Blair signed on to Liberty yesterday.

'Magic' Marvin Wilson was still on Oasis as of last week (have asked someone on the current sailing if he is still there).

Katy on Harmony said on her FB page that she is on HM for 4.5 months. She took over from Hugo on March 11 so would finish towards the end of July. Hope she is a good AM, as I am on Harmony soon!

I can confirm that Jerry, whose last name remains unknown is still the AM on Freedom. Just checked my compass and can't find his last name on it. Only time I saw him was on the tv morning show. Think he was probably involved with sports pool games etc.
