Thanks, found it. From the website: Is there a dedicated resource I can speak with about shore excursions? ; The shore excursion reservation office is available to assist you Monday-Friday, 7 AM to 4 PST. Guests may call 1 (888) 425-9376 to speak directly with an agent.

Where did you get the contact information for this specialist. I haven't heard that term before.
-
That's good to know, thank you.
-
I wondered though if it is really just a placeholder. Is that the cabin people actually end up getting when they board?
-
That is very kind of you but I would choose differently. Other people could be affected by her lack of knowledge and she did outright lie. At the very least, she is in need of additional training. I would not name her publicly though. -
That sounds like a lot of fun!
-
To me, it means an actual separate bedroom. Not just a larger room.

We enjoyed our stay in Rotterdam very much! We stayed on a houseboat and had a great time.

It has varied depending on the itinerary. If there are very few sea days we don't purchase HIA. The less time that we're on the ship, the less value the drinks, Wi-Fi and speciality restaurants have for us. We've only taken one cruise with CO, so far. We found that a good value for the cabin upgrade on that cruise.

Wow, those are some oldies!

Post #2 states a letter was sent explaining the details, although they didn't say whether it was before or after the fact.

Is there signage that show the new policy? Or is this from a staff member who may be incorrect?

Using a cruise ship for round trip transportation ?
Sea42 replied to horseymike's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
But if they sold those 2 cruises to different people who actually stayed on the ship they would make more. But give it a try and let us know how it goes! -

Sea42 replied to horseymike's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
It's not as if the ship is going to spend less on their food budget if a couple of passengers aren't eating dinner or have less in housekeeping costs if they are not cleaning one cabin. Those are fixed cost that are going to be the same. From what I've read, the cruise lines make their profit from onboard spending. Drinks, excursions etc. -

But the ship would not be receiving any onboard revenue that it would likely get from a passenger sailing the 2 complete itineraries. -
15 new production shows for Grand Voyages
Sea42 replied to BermudaBound2014's topic in Holland America Line
If you mean the two-story LED screens then, yes those are still in use. I haven't seen a BBC show but if they are still being shown, those ships using the screens to show them. -
Judging by the comments here, I'm quite sure the chef has heard enough opinions from Baltimore people as to what are and are not "real" crab cakes. He was just saving himself from hearing it again!😁
-
Agreed. The relatively small amount for insurance is definitely worth the peace of mind.
-
It's OK, just book any excursion you want before you leave home. The huge downside to this is if you have a lot of OBC and want to use it for excursions!

Is there any way we can see a Booking Confirmation on line?
Sea42 replied to Tennessee Titan's topic in Holland America Line
You should get a new confirmation in those cases. My TA sends a copy of their agency's statement and forwards the one that HAL sends to her. I keep all travel emails in separate folders. One folder for each trip including hotels, flights excursion etc. Easy to set up and keep track of multiple trips. -

I hope it works for you 🤞 -

Sea42 replied to atexsix's topic in Holland America Line
We were able to move a nonrefundable deposit to another cruise. I was told it would be allowed once. This was 2 years ago so that policy may have changed. It wouldn't hurt to ask. -
Does Anyone Know if HAL Accepts ApplePay or GooglePay Onboard?
Sea42 replied to lazarus1's topic in Holland America Line
Your key card is the only way to "pay" for purchases once you are onboard. Whether ordering drinks, booking excursions or buying something in the shops, you hand over your key card and the charge is placed on your account which is secured by cash, debit, or credit card. -
I think you'll be fine with either. For same itinerary, I would go by price, too.
-
On NS we also could get it with room service.
