server requests

[BethA]

The past three cruises we have not requested servers, or head servers; but have found what a difference that makes in your whole cruise. Who has requested servers? Is it a problem? We have a party of 12 so should I try to request before we go? Any recent cruisers have any suggestions? We had Zouhaier as head server 2 years ago and he was great. Also liked Gabby, but don't know if they are on now. Navneet was excellent, but don't know if he is with disney still. Would love to hear from any recent cruisers. thanks. Beth

On our last Wonder cruise, we asked for Katarina from Croatia, the server that took care of us on our previous Wonder cruise. As it turns out, DCL would have accomodated us. However, she left on her leave just a week before we arrived

For what its worth, Richard from Chile was amazing. He introduced himself as Katarina's husband. ROTFLOL. He really took care of us.

It was great to know that DCL tried to accomodate, but no matter what, we had a great server!

Yes, it is possible to request a preferred Server, but not guaranteed. Just go to the reservation desk (near Rocking Bar I think), and ask. If you are sailing on the Magic,I can suggest several excellent Servers if you wish. Nat

Oops--forgot to say it was the Magic. Any suggestions?

Go to the dinner area where you can make requests and changes as soon as you board. It was in one of the clubs when we were there.

I suggest Orlan (Phillipines) and Elvira (Jamaica). Orlan was excellent. Told you everything you needed to know every day, did magic tricks for the kids, made napkin hats, brought you two of everything if you wanted it. Elvira knew our drink orders and even surprised us with some recommendations waiting for us when we came to the table, which we appreciated. They were the best. Took great care of all the kids at our table and made sure they had the times (at least meals) of their lives. Very attentive. They were on the LAPLAPL rotation on the Magic.

We had a party of 12 on the 5/1 Eastern. You HAVE to request Carlos and Glen. If they are not together, go with Carlos! They were the best. The first night one of my nephews asked for lemons and every night for the rest of the cruise there were three saucers of lemons for them. They did magic tricks and the whole works. After the first night they didn't even need to ask us what we wanted to drink, they just knew. They even remembered how we liked our steaks cooked. Everything we asked was answered with "no problem." One night they even sent someone to deck 9 for a hamburger for my DD.

Fabulous team! If for some reason you can't get them, ask for Adrian. He was right next to us and came over and entertained us too. We even tipped him. He was that good.

I agree, Adrian is great - and not JUST because he is English! Sasha from Croatia, Plamen (Bul?) Deepak and Sachin (India) Antonjia(Croatia), and Baiyok are all wonderful. Keep a special eye out for Geoff (H. Server).......... he is just SO funny!Most of the Servers are great - and work very hard to make your vacation Magical!Nat
