FYI - CMs on Magic

[krzkat]

Apparently, they'll be leaving Port Canaveral on Saturday morning at 10:00 am for a couple of days at sea without any guests.

This is just FYI in case anymore was curious.

That is nice for them to get a chance to enjoy themselves for a little while!

The Wonder had 2 days off recently too - except that they went to Castaway Cay and helped with the clean up. For the Magic, they'll probably still work hard for those couple of days. Vacation time would be nice for them though.

I am sure that they will still be very busy keeping this ship ready.

I told DCL that I'd be happy to get to the port tonight for my 9/25 -- now 9/27 -- sailing and get on the ship to help out, but, alas, they said no.

Marcy, what a hoot. I can understand the longing however. We've had an extremely busy week at the office and I'm longing for a deck 4 lounger and a good book!

Even if they have to work during the day, they still can have evenings off.

I'm very happy for them

I hope they enjoy themselves as this doesn't happen very often.

So, does that mean that another cruise only goes for five days? What is happening for the people that planned on being on a full weeks cruise? I hope you all get compensated in some way?

Why do they need to take two days off?

I think I'd be rather upset if this happened to me.

Well, I hope they have a break from all the stress of the recent weather! What a crazy year! Best wishes to all CMs during the "wild weather of September 2004!"

Thumper1, DCL posted the info about the changes on their website. Both the Magic and the Wonder will make port at Port Everglades (Ft. Lauderdale) on Monday. The website mentioned discount incentives for those who choose to cruise on the altered cruises.

I'm sure the crew members will work really hard and the Magic will be really shining and sparkling when the 9/25 cruisers board her on 9/27.

I'm sure they'll get more rest and get lots accomplished but I know they'll miss the excitement of the guests and especially the children. Nothing beats the look on a kids face when Mickey or Goofy gives them a hug!

What a great perspective . . . I'm sure they'll be bright eyed and bushy tailed on Monday!

They may not have to deal with passengers, but they won't earn any tips those two days, just their base pay.
