tiny260 Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 This is merely an FYI... I was at a Technical conference this week in Vegas and happen to meet the CIO for RCCL, Mike Giresi (Only been CIO for 18-24 month), only had a few seconds with him, expressed some of the overall concerns that have been voiced on this forum, and he seemed genuinely concerned, he said he has a priority list he was working on, seems like ship board automation and the new APP are highest, but he has the web site on his list and that he was working on it.

Based on the web site, I didn't think RCCL even employed somebody in that position! EmersonNZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably all outsourced. It likley works as 'specified', but not necessarily as they want. RCL asks how much to make a change...outsource company gives them a $ figure, it's not in the 'budget', nothing changes, repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig403 Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 To get to the familiar search box on website, click on "Plan a Cruise" then click on "Search by Destinations". Scroll down and you will find the search box on the right hand side. Not sure if this is a recent change or I had just overlooked it.
