Reply To: Ideas for helping new cruisers acclimate?
Re: the new monkeys not knowing about resources on the internet…
There’s at least ONE e-mail that we all have to get/read/pay attention to during the course of booking. I was thinking if the Home Office could put a primer (or FB group, or forum) link in the cabin assignment e-mail or similar a similar Very Important piece of communication, it could help alleviate a lot of the “I didn’t know!”
That having been said, I was a new monkey on 4. I was also apparently ridiculously well researched comparative to what I’m hearing about here, so I’m not sure how much it would actually help anyone.
The cocktail party did have me on my back foot for a few minutes, but since we had gone and met people at the JoCotel the night before, it helped to give us familiar faces to at least wave at or bump into. FWIW, I wore a “hi” button for most, if not all of the cruise, and if Ambassadors is offered next year, I’ll probably join and help out.
