DonnaK Posted September 14, 2015 Author #177 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Wonder what happened to Paul Rutter? His last contract was on Enchantment, covering Marc Walker's break, May 11 through July 20. He is on his break now. No info on his next assignment, yet.

stacieg1011 Posted September 15, 2015 #179 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Why did Jerome Sueur leave the Allure. Will he be back after covering a break on the Navigator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEFAN0001 Posted September 15, 2015 #180 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Why did Jerome Sueur leave the Allure. Will he be back after covering a break on the Navigator? He had a long stint for the Western Mediterranean run...he was a great cruise director during that time, by the way (we met him on board in June). Suspect he's in rotation until his next longer run.

DonnaK Posted September 15, 2015 Author #181 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Why did Jerome Sueur leave the Allure. Will he be back after covering a break on the Navigator?No particular reason; just the usual shuffling around of CDs. Since he is multi-lingual, he is usually placed on European based ships.

bkrickles1 Posted September 16, 2015 #190 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I just booked Anthem for next July and I see Luke Aerosmith just took over that ship. I sailed Liberty in July and had Luke and he was great. Everybody in my group of 28 loved him. I know he probably will be gone by next July, but who knows. Here's hoping he sticks.

Thanks Joe. It could be that Amy will be reassigned, or it may be that she is taking a 4 month break since she was married the week before her last contract began, so she didn't have much time with her new husband and may not want to be "at sea" over the holidays.

Thanks for the reply Donna and all your hard work. Maybe Amy could be taking a 4 month break, I suppose they all need an extended break at some point and the fact that she got married maybe means that she might want to take more time off.
