If they keep increasing prices and now gratuity they will loose customers. There are way too many ships out there ready to steal their customers.

We have taken over 39 cruises, and nobody has ever question our 7 days  pill containers. We take BP, Cholesterol plus vitamins. I won’t carry my medicine bag along with my luggage besides the 7 days is a reminder if you took your pills or not. I also ask the pharmacy for a print out, but my pills always come with us in our carry on.

IMHO, there will be no end in sight.  This virus will become another illness issue like the flu.  We will need to adjust and move on.  The most vulnerable will need to take the most precautions, just like the flu.  It's not going way and will become part of life.

Sorry, don’t agree with you. This is not like the flu, this kills you, and f you survive your lungs will have scars forever, and if you are a senior you should take this virus more serious. Many countries have it under control, we don’t !

So true! When you have a country of me first people and I refuse to live in fear people, you get the mess our country is currently in with no end in sight.

Very sad! We have so many people everywhere without masks, it’s scary. We live in Florida and I can’t understand why people refuse to wear a mask. Wearing a mask saves lives. I don’t go out without my mask, and I also don’t go out until we start getting low in groceries. Oh well what can I said, we can’t fix stupidity!

Fly to Europe for a few months and from there go to all the beautiful countries I have on my bucket list. We already visited 44 countries, and we want to see them all!

We had 2 long cruises cancelled this year, a Transatlantic, and staying aboard all the way to Norway in April 2020, now we heard our October 6 cruise out of Venice was also cancelled. Unfortunately not much anyone can do at this time, and since we love HAL and cruising we got FCC for same itinerary in 2021 for both cruises, but added another Transatlantic so we can be cruising longer next year, since this year we are not going anywhere. HAL Strong!

We are planning a trip on the Koonigsdam, but we love to dance before going to dinner with the Band at Ocean Bar.

Does anyone knows if the Kooningsdam has The Band at the Ocean Bar?

Holland America is not for Spring Break. My gradkids love Carnival, and we took a trip with them last summer, and we(Holland 3 star Mariner) noticed the difference..

Let us the 55+ enjoy HAL, we love HAL, but unfortunatley(fortunate for us) is not for young crowds.

Hello everyone! We love to cruise with HAL. It's a great line for children 55+ We (my husband and I) are going to Alaska next Sept. Does anyone has any idea what to pack for the weather? Thank you and keep on cruising!
