First ever female CD for me in 13 years. Was on Wonder 2 weeks ago, Michele always does a great job. Quite funny and knows the languages so ideal for that itinerary. Ugh, I completely disagree. I had Michele on Wonder in May, and he completely ruined the into to Tap Factory because he wanted to talk, AGAIN. He talks and talks and loves to hear the sound of his voice. I do agree that he's good for the Med regarding language, but he's got to learn when and when not to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She brought Vision back in April and was on her for three weeks, but is now back home in Canada. 2 of my 4 RCI cruises were with her, she's the best!

Rare Rogueperson Posted August 23, 2022 #263 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I am unaware of when he is starting, but according to someone on Adventure, they said Marvin Wilson will be the cruise director for the 9/29/2022 sailing on Adventure per Tanya. I've never heard of him and he's not a current CD anywhere. I will be on both this sailing and the one previous, so i will confirm when i board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Eyed Belfast Belle Posted August 26, 2022 #267 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Mitch Merucci just posted this..... 🚨 HUGE NEWS ⚓️ After an amazing 18.5 years travelling the world with Royal Caribbean it’s time to sign off for the last time. Thank you to the amazing friends, colleagues & guests I’ve met from literally over 70 Countries and all the incredible memories I have (too many to count) I’m happily staying with Royal but now as a Strategic Account Manager with the Sales team to help more guests experience cruises. I’ll be home with my family now which is something all crew do eventually. I’m keeping this page of course and will keep posting (way more regularly) with the newest info on Royal Caribbean International so I hope to stay connected to everyone who has cruised with me or connected somehow in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joetop2467 Posted August 26, 2022 #271 Share Posted August 26, 2022 We had no cruise director on our Allure cruise two weeks ago. We just had the activities manager, TiTi who was terrible and didn’t know when to shut up. The cruise was great otherwise but somebody dropped the ball on cruise director.
