After reading the entire May 13 HAL announcement this morning, I think the entire Rotterdam summer HAL Med schedule is 🤢 DEAD and we are just waiting for the funeral announcement details - due in the OBIT section soon- then, what to do with a beautiful new ship for the Med season?
Makes absolutely no sense to me continue with this Aug 1 inaugural from Triest with the Med closed.My guess is management will just leave the ship in a Med port for the summer maybe Trieste for the entire Med season, then reposition the Rotterdam (possibly empty) to Amsterdam in October  for the TACaribbean season. But when will HAL be prepared to announce its plan? . HAL Inaugural and entire Med season - RIP. It would be much classier to have a inaugural take place in Amsterdam in October anyway . And make our sailing more interesting. Anyway Im betting our Oct. 20 trip is "safe"- but possibly slightly modified. Tony
