As of today on Symphony Jenn will be Diamond / Diamond Plus lounge. The woman who was there is heading to another ship - I do not  know which one. When Jackie in SL begins her vacation Jenn will join Rahul in the Suites Lounge.  I do not know who will then be in the D lounge. SL always has 2 concierges and D / DPlus lounge 1. When Jackie comes back from her vacation she will go to the D/D Plus lounge. Rahul told me on Symphony there is a rotation of 4 concierges.

Gosh I hope she is not going to Liberty! That's our next sailing. Is she going as a concierge, or back in Guest Relations?

Hi Sherri! Thanks so much for keeping this spreadsheet - awesome! We were on Symphony beginning of January. D Lounge Concierge was Ooma. Worst concierge ever! You show Jacque Yabut and Rahul Baruha on your spreadsheet. Did one of them replace her? Thinking of rebooking in a couple of weeks and don't want Symphony if I have to deal with her 😞 so hope your list is current (like this week! 🙂 )

There are two pages to the Spreadsheet -- one for suite and Concierge Lounge and One for the Diamond Lounge.  Rahul and Jacqeue are in the SL.   Ooma (Devi) Gowardun was from Guest Relations -- just filling in in the DL until 1-19-2018. Jenny Pasemba was scheduled to be back in the DL on 1-19-2019.  .

Just got our e-mail and confirming that Federico Taylor and Lyli De Leon are the Suite Concierges on Oasis of the Seas.

I am not sure if  Beatrice Chirmus is back in the Diamond Lounge or not.  Will check when we are on board next week.

We were on OA last week -- Lyli told me that she was going to SL; Beatrice was coming back on 1-20-2019 and Claudine was going on vacation.

Sherri:  Beatrice is still in the DL, but Lyli and Federico are in the SL on Oasis as they were last month also.  

 

Alan was in the DL last month on Rhapsody, and Kumar (new guy) was in the CL.  Did Alan return to CL?

Pat -- 

I don't think all my updates took on the Google Doc about OA concierges but now I have it straight.   think Federico goes on vacation when Claudine comes back (to DL) and then Beatrice moves to SL.  

 

Right now what is on the Google Doc about RH is the best information that I have -- hope some recent RH passengers can enlighten me.

I cruised with Nadia several times on the Navigator. She was wonderful.... Many nights saw her working after hours in the CL. 

-Cheryl

That is good to hear -- we cruise on MA on May 20, 2019 and will be in the DL.  I got this information about her:  "Nadia Djurdjevic is the concierge in the Diamond lounge. First day was 1-31-2019 yesterday and will stay on for a 5 month contract (end of June?) also said that she will rotate between D lounge and suite lounge (half and half)."

Yup, that was where they were last month also.   Alan said told me he was worried about missing his D+ friends...since supposedly Kumar is turning the CL into an SL.  Alan likes being in the DL.

Boarding Oasis again in a couple of weeks, will ask Federico.  I know Beatrice does not like being in the DL.  She has way too much to deal with being the only concierge in the DL with the crowding issues...and the usual gripes.  😞
