So you could use your excursion certificate on the waitlisted one when it became available? I just want to be sure I understand it clearly! Thanks.

I use Clear Care for my semi-perm contacts. But I don't think you can use them for soft.

Thanks so much!!! I did not want to lose the complimentary excursion.

Excursions are filling up on my January cruise. I have waitlisted one that I would really like to take, but Holland America suggests signing up for a second choice in case a place doesn't open up. How does this work if I use the HIA perk to book the second choice and then my first choice becomes available? I asked my PCC and he didn't answer my question. TIA

I wish I could drink the water on ships. I would love to fill up a refillable bottle rather shop for a case of bottled water to bring onboard or purchase a drink package. Not sure what they do in the filtering of it, but it causes a lot edema in my feet and legs. After experimenting on many sailing, I found that if I drink bottled water, it does not happen.

Thanks!

What is RFD - sorry, I probably should be able to figure that out. Thanks

Thank you for the info! That is exactly what I am planning on - the 110% to pay off the balance. Appreciate your input!

Can you use more than one gift card to pay for booking online? How fast did you receive the digital gc? I need it by tomorrow!! Thanks in advance for your help.

Lots to find on the app. Thanks! Got it! Thank you. I'll need to keep that in mind. Couldn't quite figure out if you could add HIA to any cruise or not. Sounds like not. Appreciate your help.

Good to know! Thanks so much!

Thanks, y'all. I have booked an 11 night, with an interior room. The difference between the room (with previous sailing discount) and the package was $61 per night (at the rack rate for the room the package was $55/night). It does include gratuities. I am still within cancellation period as it included a refundable deposit of $25. If I purchased the cruise at a discounted rate, then I can add the HIA for an additional $50 later? Sorry, I am so confused about this. Just looking to get the best bang for my buck. I am also considering transferring it to a TA to grab some additional OBC, but am weighing that against staying with HAL reservation if they chances for an upgrade is better. Experience with the upgrade process? Most of my sailing has been on Celebrity and Royal, so the ins and outs on HAL is limited for me. Appreciate all your help!!!

Often I will wait to book a cruise after final payment because fares can drop. Not being as familiar with Holland America, I was wondering if the Have It All pricing drops after final payment. Does it happen? Thanks in advance.

Thank you, CruiserBruce!

How do you know if the ship goes through the new or old locks?. I am looking at the Eurodam. TIA Nevermind. I found a thread that discusses this.
