Per CC, Michele is the new CD on Oasis, he started on Sunday. Bobby headed to Allure then Odyssey next.

Is this still current? i.e., that Michele is the CD for Oasis now? I've been trying to find out who our CD will be in a couple weeks and there seems to be conflicting info.

I've found out that he was filling in on Oasis for a month and then moved to Allure. Dennis Charles is taking over on Oasis today.

Here is Brian Leavitt's schedule, really enjoyed him last week on Symphony.

 

*BIG news* For 2020 it looks like I’m trading in my current model, Liberty OTS, for these newer, bigger models. Happy to announce that I’ll be floating between the Symphony and the Harmony OTS. (Dates Below). The Liberty and the wonderful Texas guests will always have a special place in my heart.
Symphony: 2/1/20 - 4/4/20, 7/11/20 - 9/5/20
Harmony: 9/6/20 - 11/15/20

Thank you for this bit of info! I'm guessing (and hoping) that means Mike Szwajkowski will be our CD on April 18 . . .

Hello All,

 

I wanted to see if we could commence a running Cruise Director and Activities Manager list here on the Royal Caribbean Blog Boards.   As many of you know, the Cruise Director can be very influential in providing a fun and interactive experience while on a cruise and for this reason the question is often asked "who will be the cruise director on my sailing?" However, as with any position of importance, the Cruise Director also enlists the assistance of his or her Activities Manager to host a number of events throughout a sailing (e.g. trivia, bingo, karaoke, etc...).  Therefore, I would also like to keep the list updated with the current Activities Managers whom many of us develop strong relationships with based on our varying degrees of participation in ship events. 

 

While I know there are similar lists maintained elsewhere on the internet, my desire is to provide an easily accessed (thanks in part to the long-term edit function of these boards) and more user friendly document than what currently exists.  In addition to receiving regular updates from the fantastic blog community that fill these boards with Royal Caribbean knowledge everyday, I also hope to leverage Kat's evergrowing Periscope community to obtain real time and accurate updates as to who holds these very important positions throughout the Royal Caribbean fleet.   Below is my first stab at a draft of the list based on information I was able to retrieve from various social media and online content.  As you can see, there are some blanks, which I am sure many of you will be able to assist with filling in.  Please feel free to respond here with any list updates or any comments as to the format or layout of the document.

 

I would like to thank all of you in advance for any assistance you can provide with making this list a useful resource for Royal Caribbean cruisers.

Thank you for the effort in making this list.  Love it

How do we contact the cruise director pre-boarding our cruise to request that Pickleball open play on the boat be added to shore days.   We will be on The Allure if the Seas and plan to stay on and play if at all possible and would love for others to join us.  

The current cruise on allure has Pickleball every morning for around 3 hours even on port days.
