WHO'S ON BOARD: Officers, Staff and Crew

[maggie.1008]

I think JC is not James Calhoun. I sailed with James on the Solstice in 2010. Thought he was great. I think he now works in the Miami office.

Who is the CC hostess?

 

The last report said Donna was Hostess. Wonderful person and a great hostess. Hope she's there in 3 weeks.

[Xfedcruiser]

Who is the CC hostess?

 

sorry I left her off - Donna Trembath, one of the best!

[Xfedcruiser]

Thanks for the update.Do you know who is the Restaurant Manager?

 

Sorry - I do not.

[uktog]

If he's the one who goes by JC, he was on the Infinity this spring.

 

 

JC who was on Infinity is James Cox - really nice guy, so friendly and interacts well with guests when we were onboard

[Orator]

Sorry - I do not.

 

Appreciate your response. Thanks

We had him on Constellation this summer and were not impressed. See the discussion a few pages back (if you care).

I guess that may be the difference between US and UK tastes ;). We always find most "popular" CDs not at all to our taste.

I think you are right Sue, James is from Oxford. However on board he seemed to be well liked by all guests, though on some cruises clearly some have issue based on this board. Like you I cannot abide some CDs and entertainers others engineer bookings to be with.

 

Just as well we do not all like the same thing!

Thanks! We are often made to feel freaks because we do not like a popular CD.

Thank you that's helpful, I sail on her on the 13th :D

[LINGBER]

Anyone know who the Cruise Director will be on the Reflection over Christmas?:confused:

[yogimax]

We will be on Summit in January and last year had the pleasure of speaking with the Staff Captain at length.

 

Does anyone know who is currently aboard Summit? Also anyone know who the Loyalty Ambassador is on the ship?

 

Thanks!

Some interesting occurrences happened over the last few weeks.

HD Sue Richardson (currently on Solstice) has resigned from Celebrity (going as resort manager in Labadee)

And some people may be glad to hear that Rafaelle is coming back as HD, possibly heading the Eclipse.

4 brand new HDs recently recruited from outside of the company too.

Rafaelle is fantastic! Wish Sue well.

Rafaelle is already on board EC, we exchanged emails early this week. Not sure how long he will be in EC. Told me to contact him in January as we are booked for a B2B beginning 25 January. ~ Rick
