GORDONCHICK Posted August 25, 2006 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I've seen many references to Uncle Bob, but I haven't found out who "he" is. I'm not new to cruising, but October will be my first with Carnival, so I know things will be a little different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticks1 Posted August 25, 2006 #2 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I've seen many references to Uncle Bob, but I haven't found out who "he" is. I'm not new to cruising, but October will be my first with Carnival, so I know things will be a little different. This is from the Presidential Wine Club page: Meet Bob Dickinson Bob Dickinson has been with Carnival Cruise Lines since its inception in 1972, and has been president of the company since May 1993; he was named president and CEO 10 years later. In addition to serving at the helm of the world's most popular cruise line, Dickinson serves on the board of directors of Carnival Cruise Lines' parent company, Carnival Corporation & plc, the world's largest cruise vacation group with 12 distinct cruise brands operating worldwide itineraries.

slick52 Posted August 25, 2006 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Just to be accurate, Uncle Bob is the Pres & CEO of Carnival Crusie Lines. Micky Arison is the Chairman of the Board and CEO of Carnival Corporation. http://www.carnivalcorp.com/Sections/InvestorOverview/CorpGov.aspx Micky trumps Uncle Bob :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDONCHICK Posted August 25, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Thanks for the responses. Personally, I have two Uncle Bob's of my own, but just had to know who this other one was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRWO Posted August 25, 2006 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2006 He's the guy you call immediately if your lobster's rubbery or if the singer in the Show Lounge is off-key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted August 25, 2006 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I'm sure many newbies to the boards see "Uncle Bob" or "UB" and wonder what some of the posters are talking about. I personally think it's kinda silly, but........:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
