I have found it done several different ways. On the Navigator O/S last year Capt. Bang stood in the reception line and shook hands with everyone. On Celebrity Infinity last summer the Capt and officers were introduced on stage. On Sensation last month the Capt reception was in the theatre with free coctails and a reception line. I ran in to Capt Pederson on Voyager O/S early on Saturday morning last month. Hardly anyone on the promanade at that hour so we strolled together for a while. He was very gracious and we had a nice private visit. I have a friend who works on board a ship and she tells me it is largely the decision of the Capt on how he greets the passengers.Happy Cruising!!
