Has anyone seen and done this offer?  Is it worth opening a new credit card?  i am booked for two HA cruise, one 2024 and then 2025. 

i am going on a 2025 28 day alaska cruise.  i am learning how to better use my canon rebel t7 camera.  would like advice on lower cost lenses to become familiar with for this cruise.  need lens recommendations.  i am an amateur and therefore need to be practical since interested in travel photos.  will also cruise to panama canal in 2024.

When do AARP gift cards expire after purchase?

We stayed there about 6 months ago and really liked the ES.  Happy hour (free) and free breakfast, nice large rooms and great staff!  About 4 blocks to the pier.

 

did you walk to peir with suitcases? how easy a walk?

Seeking advice about cabin choices for alaska westerdam cruise?

Assume you mean the daily programs for those types of cruises? 

Yes that is  thank you 

i would like hawaii cruises from vancouver please

Has anyone used a luggage tracker?  Was it worth getting?  recommendations of what to look for in a tracker.

I usually take one cruise a year.  with all the difficulties with air travel i thought i may invest in a tracker.  Usually have to swithch planes to get reasonable faries so more likelihood of lost bags.

Appreciated any advice and information.

good travels to all

please add 18 day circle hawaii cruise on koningsdam April 13- May 1 2023

first cruise HA and first time to Hawaii

thank you 

Thank you all the information

Thank you for the information.  As someone remarked,  i would reach diamond if i get the double points which would be great.  Hope not to loss that opportunity.  Hope everyone stays safe and covid free.  See you on board. 

thanks for info.  will keep that in mind and hope i do not need it. 

have great day.

If I did not state previously, thank you very much for the daily posts from your cruise.  loved seeing the ship and cruise compass for each day.  will be coming aboard Enchantment in April.

Look forward to any other cruise that you post.  

Just wondering if you would test positive for a cruise.  you have to cancel.  if that cruise was booked during the period you could get double points.  Can you retain those points if you reschedule the same cruise just different date??  thank you for any ideas.

just thinking ahead since you never know what will happen and i have cruise scheduled for april.

wish me luck that i really will not need to find out for myself

Radio thank you for videos and info.  will sail on enchantment april 2

can you tell me how many passengers are on your cruise? thanks again  

ENJOY

If you use the Royal up program will it affect double points gotten from this years promotion??

As a solo cruiser i have always has a pre arranged shutlle from airport to hotel or cruise port.  

What advice do you have for using uber in baltimore? or is use of taxis better idea there?

have been with others on uber but not as solo

thanks for info

I cruise solo since my husband is still working full time and will not fly.  so i go on some cruises solo that he is not interested in the destination or that it requires flying (unless he had enough vacation time to drive to departure port).  

Would like advice on these solo cabins to Hawaii.  Is it worth the savings or better to spend more for inside or oceanview for one cruiser?  thank you for information from other solo or seasoned Holland America cruisers. 

thank you for all the info.  looks like i do not drink enough to make any reason to get.  plus all the other good reasons you have all pointed out. 

thanks to all

The one thing I would add to IP4IGO’s very helpful post is to do the math on the beverage package.  It isn’t worth that much to everyone.  It depends on how many sodas, waters, alcoholic drinks, specialty coffees, etc you tend to drink.  

Once you do the math for what you consume, you will have a better idea on it’s worth to you.  

thanks for all this great info

Thank you very much for the info

Trying to decide on cruise to hawaii on holland america.  first time with this cruise line.  Looking at the difference between regular fare and "have it all".  Can anyone tell me the average daily cost for wifi and drink package?  trying to decide if worth the expense for  25 day cruise.  thanks for replies.
