Thank you for the information - much appreciated

We’ve not explored the list of excursions that HAL are offering. Thought we would reach out to the message boards first. So thank you for the assistance and suggestions.

Thanks for the responses. Will look at that for sure. Hoping to do a little mall shopping too 😉

We are on the Nieuw Statendam in December and have a stop back at Fort Lauderdale mid cruise. We are from the UK. and would welcome suggestions for what we could do for the day and best way to get there. Many thanks

Thanks everyone for the information. sounds like smart but no top hat!

Many thanks for the information layers it is!

Hi all Planning an Alaskan cruise in May with Princess- San Francisco round trip. Would be interested to hear from anybody who has travelled to Alaska in May and what they feel we would need clothes wise. Many thanks

Thanks for the information. Much appreciated

Just wondering if anybody has done this on Marella previously. Trying to find out if there would be a lot of children on board? Thanks

Thanks for responding. It’s interesting to hear of the experiences of others.

It’s so interesting to hear different experiences. As I first mentioned , on our first night in the restaurant the only main course that was offered as a vegetarian was braised leeks. Manfredis was absolutely fine and we ate there twice on a 15 night cruise. We did not go to the chef’s table . I also identify with the comments that the vegetarian options in the WC were sometimes jacket potato and boiled vegetables as I had that a couple of times. It is so heartening that many of you have had great experiences as vegetarians . I’ve been vegetarian since I was 12 and find there is still room for improved offers in many eateries, but it is certainly much better than it was a number ( quite a big number) of years ago when I started my vegetarian journey. Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread

I guess that allergies can end up with serious consequences, but this isn’t the case with vegetarians. Thank you for your information.

We met the executive chef several times - in fact he came and sought me out in the restaurant one night, but never mentioned getting the menu in advance . I did advise them before we sailed that I was vegetarian. I also visited guest services and gave them a list of anything to avoid which was just a couple of items. Thanks for responding .

Thanks for the information. Can you tell me which ships you were on? I have to say the chef was helpful, but the choices in the buffet were limited and, as I mentioned, my meals in the restaurant just appeared each evening and I never knew what was coming. I understand that vegetarian on Virgin is , I’m told by a neighbour, amazing choices. Thanks again
