Anchorbuoy Posted February 6, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Former Regent cruise director John Barron will be joining the Navigator at the end of February to relieve Margaret Lynn. We have not sailed with him, but we have heard many nice reports about John. With a new ship under construction, and Viking poaching personnel from Regent, John will complete the lineup of cruise directors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted February 6, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Wow - what a surprise. He is really a nice man and a good C.D. I think he left Regent for Silversea (but it could have been Seabourn). I bet that Regent is happy to have him back "home". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a super CD and Regent cruisers are lucky to have him back. I wish him all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised he decided to leave Home Shopping Network. Great guy, and agreed, great CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrlevin Posted February 8, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Great news!!!! We were on Mariner when he got engaged to Lynsay[sp]. He is a great entertainer and a great CD. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petlover Posted February 8, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I heard from John and he's thrilled to be coming back to Regent. He will be on the Navigator for the foreseeable future but likely changing to a different ship by 2017 as Jamie will be CD on the 2017 Navigator WC. John is a great CD, very talented and quick witted. Marq, Tom & I were with you when he and Lynsay got engaged on the Mariner...fun memories.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamflightPat Posted February 8, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I spoke to John today and he is missing the life at sea and is pleased to be rejoining Regent. The fact that he can provide for his family better is another reason for his return.. Although he will miss them dreadfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
