Where is my FAVORITE DCL cast member?

[sdlong329]

We've all been there before ... we LOVE a specific cast member ... would like to be able to request them on an upcoming DCL cruise ... but not sure if they are still with DCL, or whether they moved to a different DCL ship. WHAT TO DO?

Yes, you can "request" a specific cast member (within your reservation), but that does not mean your cast member will be on the same ship.

Here's the plan ... if you had an extremely positive experience with a DCL cast member ... please post their first AND last name, their department, ship name, and cruise date (estimate is okay, if you do not remember ... here's an example:

Maiden Fantasy
March 31 - April 7, 2012
Ivan Frick - Palo Server
Daniel Javor - Main Dining Room Server (departed DCL - 2012)
Radoslav "Rado" Hristev - Assistant Server
Faisel Faisel - Head Server
Tri Martudiyanto - Stateroom Host

By posting similar content for a RECENT DCL cruise, I am hoping other guests will be able to use this thread to locate their favorite cast members!

*** PLEASE *** DO NOT post any other personal information. No need to post how much you love your cast member, or why, as this thread is merely designed to let you know which ship your favorite cast member IS / WAS located ... so you may request them on an upcoming DCL cruise. This DOES NOT guarantee your cast member will be on a specific cruise or ship, nor does it guarantee they will not be in between contracts, on vacation, or have transferred to another department or DCL ship in the interim.


Would you like to communicate with your favorite DCL crew member?
The following address was updated as of @ June 2012, and is to be used for letters and small packages sent by US Mail (only) ... for any / all Disney Cruise Line ships ... regardless of their home port:

Disney Cruise Line / Guest Communications
attn: Disney (SHIP NAME) / Crew Member Name & Department
PO Box 10238
Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830-0238

All packages and letters are entered into inventory at this location, sorted by ship and cast member name, and eventually transported to various ship ports, including Port Canaveral, New York City, Miami, Galveston, Miami ... as the case may be. In the case of multiple packages and / or letters addressed to a specific cast member, it is my understanding, all packages and / or letters will be bundled together (much like military mail call). *** Please understand, packages and letters being forwarded to ports outside of Florida WILL entail additional time in transit.

We had Harry on the Inaugural Alaska cruise (May 2011 / Wonder). He was fabulous!

Remember: On future cruises ... SAVE your gratuity receipt stubs for future reference ... especially if you enjoyed the cast member!

Harry Simmons, from Jaimaca. I have still have my gratuity ticket right here with me. He was awesome on my MR 4/22 cruise! Have no fear, Harry is here!

4/22 Mexican Riviera Wonder
Stateroom Host: Eric Loila, super great, always said hello and remembered my name from day one. I saw him on his hand and knees scrubbing bathroom floors, he was superb.

Harry Simmons: Head Server: Checked in every night, cut entrees and refilled drinks when the servers were busy, exactly what a head server should do!

Lilijiana Ristic: Croatia: Assitant Server, AWESOME, friendly with the kids, amazing and fast with everything. Saw us in port and came over and said hi, chatted with us even during her VERY limited time off.

Englebert Souza: India: Server, fun magic tricks and pretended to spill a drink on my wife several times which had the table howling in laughter as she jumped out of her seat. When my wife wasnt feeling well, he insisted I pick and entree for her, which I did, and he had it brought up to our room, free of course. Awesome!

Tai, Australia, future cruise desk guy, I got to know him well and he bended several rules for us to book onboard. Super nice and helpful with my million different scenarios.

JD, kids club, SO awesome with my kids, you can see him in the Disney Wonder "time of my life" video, he dancing in the kids club with a white shirt. He ran several activites and my daugthers loved him.

Fiona, Englad, cruise staff: For some reason we just ran into her everywhere and chatted over and over, she is what I call a "real shaped" woman (my fav!), not a size zero stick, but is up there dancing during sail away and PITC party, always with a smile. She also ran Mickey Mania too.


I got some crap on here for asking so many times what server / assitant to request, well, it paid off, I had the all star team!

Englebert was our Head Server on our August Alaska cruise. Great guy! And we saw Fiona quite a bit also. She was a lot of fun!

If you are sailing the Fantasy in July / August / September 2012 ... you may STILL request Ivan Frick in Palo. If he has returned to the ship, you will be matched with your server.
