Rare mking8288 Posted May 9, 2017 #401 Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) We love Captain Kostas ... by far the most friendly captain we have met on NCL. Also, Vik the F&B Manager is excellent.It was our first time sailing with him, here's one picture of the senior officers on the Gem. Elvina is a doll and so very helpful!She was most definitely spoiling us with special treats sent to our stateroom, plus attention to details & offers for assistance, if needed. via Nexus 5X on Nougat 7.1.2 using Tapatalk, VPN secured.

bmwman Posted May 9, 2017 #402 Share Posted May 9, 2017 It's a good thing that we all don't prefer the same size ship.It could get crowded. LOL . The Epic is already overcrowded :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfkeith10 Posted May 14, 2017 #404 Share Posted May 14, 2017 We were lucky to have Karin as our Concierge on a Spirit cruise in 2015. She has sort of fallen off the radar and we are wondering if anyone might know which ship she is currently on---or even if she is still with NCL...

Named-Tawny Posted May 16, 2017 #406 Share Posted May 16, 2017 2017 NCL Pearl Line Up as of 2/6/17 Captain - Paul Von Knorning - USA Staff Captain - Vincente Amicone Chief Engineer - Oleksandr Denysenko Hotel Director - Cary Turecamo Food & Beverage - Tony Rosa Cruise Director - JC Sanchez Beverage Manager - Kiran Aguiar Restaurant Manager - Oscar Fernandes Executive Chef - Francies Comes Executive Housekeeper - Gladys Torio Concierge - Naomi Sorry if I may have misspelled any names - this is a great line up - the Executive Team is very approachable and enjoys receiving feedback! This was one of my favorite of all times on NCL and this team made it GREAT! For the officers, do they have a standard email address? Does anybody know how to contact them before the cruise?

GORDONCHICK Posted May 16, 2017 #409 Share Posted May 16, 2017 A shame but quite logical. If you are in a suite and need help getting something set up, you can contact the pre-concierge. Some do a better job at getting your requests taken care of than others, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why on earth would I want to contact them before I got on especially when they move around so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare www3traveler Posted May 21, 2017 #420 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hiya! Does anyone know when Steven will be going on holiday/returning to the Jewel? Would appreciate the information! Cheers! I think that Steven should have his vacation in early July which means he may return in early September. With all the changes beginning to occur, do not known if he will return to The Jewel.

Sabiney Posted May 21, 2017 #422 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Thanks Suzie. We were aware of this back in October 2016 when the BA HD came up came up in last year. We too think the world of Prem and NCL have lost a great HD - any idea where he is now?[/quote] Rumor has it Holland America has a really great Hotel Director!
