Hey Becka, DH and I had the pleasure of enjoying your hilarious Bingo games during our FIRST Cruise on the Liberty in Jan 2006. C;mon Becka.....lol Oooooohhhh noooooo Becka.... :p We didn't win but had a great time anyways.

 

We recently came back from a HAL cruise and the Bingo crew were BORING. No wait, down right ANNOYING. We didn't even play. :cool:

 

Needless to say, Carnival is our next cruise. :D

Crew members can really make the cruise. We have cruised carnival 14 times. some of the reason is because of the crew. We have several very close friends that are crew members. Now the bad part, not to be negative but some people should be very careful of the crew. Yes, the crew work very hard depending on the job. I can only speak for three jobs as our friends work as bartenders, two as bar waiters on the lido deck, and one in the calypso band. These people are NOT POOR. Believe me, they do very well. However, MANY play the pitty me card to passengers(who they call cones) and tell them they send all their money home to feed their children and sisters children and brothers children and so on. I am sure there are some that do just that but not all. I have seen people hand my friends HUGE TIPS at the end of the week thinking they have no money. My friend in the calypso band makes $1400 every other week with no bills to pay on the ship or at home. He stays with his brother back home when on vacation. His brother owns a Kentucky Fried Chicken!!!

i love the crew at carnival, they are awesome. The Elation has such great people working on it.

I was actually trying to get a hold of a worker on that boat. She was really sweet to me and my family and i wanted to send her something and keep in touch. She had given me her email, but i have misplaced it. Is there a way to get a hold of a crew member of that boat in any way, whether through email or letter?

Thanks

Thank you to all the Carnival crew members, they are one of the reasons for all the repeat customers that love the Carnival experience. By the end of the trip you feel like they are part of your family.

 

Happy holidays to all the great crews of Carnival no matter where they may be.

We'll add our "thank you's" to the Carnival crew members. Our family has now been fortunate enough to have sailed on Carnival 3 times and each one has been a true pleasure. Our children's ages are such that they're always in 3 different kids clubs and (especially on the Conquest because of it's great sized kids areas) they've had such fun, fun times onboard. And the dining room staff on each cruise have been so friendly, yet professional and talented. We here on these message boards are quite fortunate to be able to go on cruises and one of the reasons our family speaks so highly about Carnival to everyone we know is because of the crew~~~they're always doing what they can to make sure we cruisers have an extraordinary vacation. THANK YOU!

I will not let this tread die!

 

It's kinda sad to see the small response, given the amount of views this thread has had-:( C'mon guys, don't you all think the up front people that do the really tough work deserve a thank you?

 

I say- THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Merry Christmas to those of you that celebrate it, and Wonderful, Happy Holidays to the rest! You make our world so special for a few days out of the year!!!:) :) :)

I have no other cruiseline to compare as we've ONLY sailed with Carnival ;) I have just reached the ripe young age of 50 and still believe in the "fun" ships of Carnival!

We had a Deck Steward, Kisha, on the Imagination and 2 years later he recognized US on the Glory.....true statement! He worked the Lido during the day, called us by name, kept our bucket full of beer & ice and stopped for a minute of chit chat inquiring of our day when he could. At night when he serviced the main lounge we were sure to sit in his section :)

Although Kisha is a staff member we will always hold dear.....we certainly met many staff members over the years and appreciate their hard work and dedication in making our vacation the best!

I want to give a big thumbs up to all the crew on the new Fantasy sailing out of New Orleans. Sailed on it on 12/2/06 and LOVED our room steward and his assistant that worked on our stateroom, U97. Donald and his crew that worked our table #290 something in the Celebration dining room at the 8:00 sitting were fantastic! ......and the broadway type shows were fabulous....LOTS of wonderful talent in all of those young people! The lead singers were really good!

 

We have sailed the Conquest and the Sensation before and enjoyed it; but felt like we were treated extra special this 12/2/06 sailing on the Fantasy.

I'd also like to extend a big thanks to the crew of the Elation!! I just got back today from the 12/18 sailing and had a great time. Everyone on the ship worked so hard to make our trip wonderful. From Goose, the cruise director, to dining room server, "Juice" and assistant, Mayat....a big THANKS!!!

I also want to thank EVERY crewmember for making every one of our trips wonderful.. I love to see their smiling faces.. it makes my day.. Our last cruise wasnt on Carnival, but RCCL and our waiter was so gracious to us for just being there for him to wait on us.. He couldnt say enough how pleased he was to be on that ship.. He told us all about his children and one night even brought out pictures of them.. I love hearing of their families..

 

THANK YOU, THANK YOU .. THANK YOU... If any crewmembers are reading this.. Let your light shine!

I'd like to throw props and a shout out to a few members of the Pride Crew.

 

Our room Stewardess, Dala: You are the bombdiggity. Thanks for taking such good care of us.

 

The best bartenders this side of the Mississippi: Joey and Concepcion at Poseidons Pool and Bar. Smiling, Happy Faces, always.

 

Mr. Entertainment: Augustin in the Ivory Bar. You are music.... but Barry still writes the songs! You are fantastic!

 

There are sooo many others... they remembered MY name, but I cant remember theirs... I apologize.

 

Hope to be on the Pride again soon!

Here's a big THANK YOU to Claudia on the Fantasy. (She was a bartender at the pool bar until our cruise and was just moved to the Atrium bar). Wonderful to talk to and made a great "Willie Moffett".

 

Roy (Fantasy cabin U199) our cabin steward was excellent!!!

 

Sarah Kushma (Miracle Asst CD until October ~~ now Conquest Asst CD)

She is a rare commodity of hard work and a genuine personality. Sweet and efficient....you don't find that combination very often!!!

 

Adam (karaoke host ~~Miracle) ROCKS ROCKS ROCKS!!!!

 

Amporn (Spirit ~ balcony cabin on Upper, Alaska) The BEST cabin steward we have ever had .... and we have had some excellent ones!!

 

And last (but certainly not least) is my friend Noonan (Asst CD ~ Fantasy) and his lovely wife Gemma! It has been a joy to sail with you twice this year. I hope I can squeeze in many more before you "retire"!!
