Three Perspectives on Carnival Glory


One of the things I like to do is to have the people who actually operate the ships talk about their ships. I think that this gives you a more personalized view of the cruise experience as well as information about what goes on aboard the various ships. By analogy, one can enjoy a book or a painting without talking to the author or the artist but an interview can sometimes provide insights that enhance the experience.

This time, we have three perspectives on Carnival Glory.

Hotel Director Anuj Khosla is in charge of most of the services that directly impact the guests - - the accommodations, the dining, the bars, the shore excursions etc. I asked him to speak about why people who are considering a cruise vacation should select Carnival Glory. This conversation is at http://www.beyondships.com/CarnivalGlory-art-HD.html

Cruise Director Jorge Solano is responsible for the entertainment onboard the Glory. A popular cruise director as well as a professional comedian, Solano brings great enthusiasm to his assignment. I asked him to talk about the entertainment onboard. http://www.beyondships.com/CarnivalGlory-art-CD.html

Finally, Captain Agostino Fazio is the master of Carnival Glory. A veteran captain, I asked him about his career at Carnival and how the line has changed over the years. In addition, I asked him to talk about the big picture, to share his vision for Carnival Glory. This article is posted at http://www.beyondships.com/CarnivalGlory-art-captain.html

My hope is that these conversations with members of the senior tea on Carnival Glory will give you something about the ship beyond what can be found in the brochures or in the reviews.
