I have been in aft and midship Neptunes on the Signature and Pinnacle class ships, but not EVERY one on the Signature class. ( Been in every aft in the Pinnacle class, except deck 8.) The aft have always been smaller in the interior, as compared to the midship Neptunes.

No. The aft wraps interior is smaller than the standard Neptune. Mentioned that back in post #4.

Yes.

Per board rules, tour shares are arranged on your Roll Call, which you have already been posting on: This thread will likely get deleted.

I would take the Princess transportation in that case.

As has been mentioned, KDam is going to the Caribbean for a drydock, and the winter Caribbean season. There is no evidence it is being permanently removed, or that some other Pinnacle class ship wouldn't be assigned here. I don't have any sales figures on how full the ship sails. Does anyone?

You have asked this several times. We have told you Konningdam will be returning to the West Coast...the sailing date is April 10th 2026...its in the HAL schedule on the website.

As mentioned here frequently, you need to be all over the ship during your transit. Be on the bow (if available) for a locking. Be on the Promenade deck for a locking. Your aft cabin is also a good place to be, but I am not sure I would pay 25% more.

Our experience as well, in 4 cruises now with HIA. HIA money carried over to the next excursions we booked.

Get a villa on HMC. Fun splurge for a group like yours.

We did in our Neptune on our most recent Zaandam cruise, earlier this month.

That is good info to have provided up front. You can follow the menu rotation on the Navigator app before you get on board.

All of this would depend on the nights that are dressy nights. So, if the dressy nights are not the second night and the next to last night, that would move the nights you are asking about.

They will be aware a ship is docking at Pier 80, and will be available. Its about knowing where the demand is. Same for taxis.

The Deck 6 cabins and the aft wrap Neptunes are SBs and SCs, (as opposed to the SAs on Deck 7) so will be cheaper. However, the cabin size on the aft wraps can be a bit smaller. The Neptunes midship on both Deck 6 and 7 are all the same size. We have two SCs booked on N. Amsterdam for next year, and have stayed in the Deck 6 SBs before.
