Last year a group of friends and myself cruised on the Paradise in mid September. We had so much fun, mostly due to the entertainment by "Lloyd" just outside the Casino. His Elvis, Beatles and the other music he played had all of us singling along for hours. Does anyone know his schedule for this upcoming September on the Paradise? We booked again for September and are hoping we have the same "Lloyd" experience!

Hi Lkca714, Welcome to Cruise-Chat!

The entertainers work on contracts for a certain period of time. They may or may not be on the same ship. The best thing might be to get the Cruise Director's email and ask them. I don't know it, but hopefully someone will.

Welcome aboard,

Dwayne

well good luck, I went on a cruise ship and met a dancer:S of carnival, and never got him email, so i tried getting it from the host of that ship and no one on that ship really gives out emails...it kinda sucked..but I have given up. But you could try emailing carnval then asking about him, they might answer some of your questions. Have fun on your cruise!

Yes It can be very difficult getting email of crew as the privacy laws restrict it. If you didn't get a close enough relationship to get an email directly from the dancer you are not going to get it. However the Cruise Director is a different matter as the email is not a private one. Try CDparadise@carnival.com. Of course they may not answer. The other place that may yield some results is John Helds Blog which you can link from Carnival.com I think. John is a very senior CD and trains most of the others, takes out the new ships and can be responsive to requests. He probably knows exactly where Lloyd is.

Then the Cruise chat solution is to ask if someone has cruised lately on that ship and see if he was there. My daughter is currently on the Destiny and will be on the Pride and Triumph later but she will only be helpful if it is someone on the ship she is on. The ships don't see or talk to each other easily from a crew perspective.

Thanks CruiseDad for posting this info! I figured someone would know the email for the Cruise Director. I hope they get an answer.
