We are doing the cruise on the Noordam from Vancouver to Seward, my question is about Glacier Bay. The itinerary says we are there from 7am to 4pm but no tours come up to book, does the boat dock or are we just cruising through.

Hi, I am trying to work out what is included in the Quench package. Are smoothies included. Is the freestyle cola included, the blurb about Quench package says you get the cup but the drink is excluded. Which doesn't make sense to me. We are going on the Noordam which seems to be one of the smaller ships and someone said the freestyle cola wasn't available on smalller ships but when I go into already booked and the drinks packages it mentioned the freestyle cola. Has anyone been on the Noordam recently and can help me. Thank you.

I am going on the Noordam and when I look at the drinks package it talks about the freestyle cola but is that just because it's a general drinks package used for all ships. If so it's quite misleading.

On the Quench package does it include the freestyle Coca Cola. It says it does and then goes on to say it is excluded. I'm confused. Also is the freestyle cola self serve?

I haven't seen a listing for hot chocolate on any of the drinks menus. Do they have it on the ship?

We are booked on the Noordam sailing on the 27th of August to Alaska. Can anyone tell me how the laundry deals work and how I book one of them. Thanks for your help.

Thank you 😀

Oh my goodness, I can't believe any one would suggest those not in compliance with the dress code should avoid public areas. Unfortunately our cruise is booked and less than a month away but I am seriously reconsidering if this is our type of holiday.

Thank you, I don't really want to pack a jacket for my husband as we are going to California after the cruise and it will be too warm for a jacket so I don't want to take up room in the suitcase for 2 nights. That said I don't want to be restricted to the Buffet on gala nights. So if my husband can wear dress pants and nice buttoned shirt that works well for us.

Thanks Crystalspin. I am going on Holland America.

Is there anywhere on the ships that you can eat on formal night without getting dressed up.

First time cruiser here, we are going on the Hollandamerica Noordam to Alaska in August. We have been looking at the drinks package but my understanding is that if one person in the cabin has an alcohol package the other person in the cabin must purchase it as well even if they don't drink alcohol. Is this right? So now I'm thinking a drinks card might be better but I don't know how this works. I hope someone can help me.
