We have been to Maui many times and basically done it all!! Beautiful island. However we have never done a whale watching trip there so thought it would be a change even though we live in Massachusetts and have seen many whales off Cape Cod. It never gets old. Thank you for all your input.

Thanks. Good info. We are in port until 8:00pm which eases the stress!!

We will be there in February

Is it fairly easy to get a taxi or an Uber in this port!! We would like to do a whale watch at PAC Whale Eco Adventures but not sure about transportation. TIA

We are booked for our first HAL cruise. One disappointment is that there’s really no easy way to see our OBC , perks, etc. I guess we were spoiled with the Celebrity website. HAL really needs to up their website.

I had a similar problem with HAL gift cards. One big problem was with the AARP rep who was basically incompetent. Unfortunately each time I called I always got her!! Anyway on the third call I think she knew she was clueless and disconnected me. I called back and fortunately got a new rep. She was great. Expidited the problem to tech support, no 3-5 day wait. They emailed me right away and fixed the problem. Moral of story: don’t be afraid to move on from a bad rep!!

We changed our clocks 1/2 hour in Adelaide Australia

Thanks for this info. I was going to book this as I thought it might be easy for DH. Will probably now look to booking land tour in Tahiti.

I have really enjoyed following this thread. Thanks to all who contributed. We will be doing this cruise next year. After reading the challenging disembark I am rethinking my plan to book a 12:15pm flight. Do you think this is cutting it too close?? Thanks.

When are we able to book specialty dining? Will reservations show up on Navigator calendar? We have second seating MDR dining and that is not on calendar. Also does HAL ever have sales on shore excursions? Thinking Fourth of July or maybe Black Friday. TIA

Celebrity and Royal also ask if you would like to use OBC when making precruise purchases. That includes just about anything. They also have the amount listed which is convenient. We are taking our first HAL cruise and it is difficult to know what our finances are.

My TA just changed it for me. Can I see this anywhere on website or app?

Thanks. I think that will work better for us

We are on this cruise next year and have open dining. After reading your experiences I am contemplating changing to late fixed dining. Am I correct that late fixed dining is at 8:00?

He actually sent me the web site link. Unfortunately it is set up for future cruises not ones that are already booked.
