What a sad turn of events! American Queen Voyages brought so much joy and adventure to countless travelers. It's always disheartening to see a beloved company cease operations. Let's hope for a silver lining and that those affected find new opportunities on the horizon.

Ahoy there! Your cruise adventure sounds like a delightful escape! While the Princess Vacation Protection (PVP) certainly offers peace of mind, especially with the pre-existing condition waiver, it's wise to consider your specific needs and activities planned. Since you're opting out of excursions and planning to stay onboard, the PVP might suffice for your situation. However, it's always a good idea to carefully review the policy details to ensure it aligns perfectly with your travel plans. Bon voyage and may your cruise be filled with endless relaxation and memorable moments! ⚓️🛳️

Absolutely! It's refreshing to hear about your experience aboard the Hapag Lloyd luxury expedition ship. The absence of pumped-in pop music on the decks is a definite plus in my book too. There's something serene about being able to soak in the natural sounds of the sea without any artificial distractions. Thanks for sharing your review!

Ahoy there! Ah, the conundrum of cruising with hemodialysis gear - not your typical vacation packing list, eh? While I can't speak from personal experience, I'd lean towards biohazard bags for disposal. After all, better safe than sorry when it comes to handling medical waste, especially on the high seas! Bon voyage and smooth sailing on your dialysis adventure! 🚢💉

Wow, sounds like your service dog is quite the seasoned cruiser! Thanks for sharing your experiences and tips. It's awesome to hear how accommodating and friendly the cruise lines have been. Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures!

We will be going on the Hebridean Princess in May, if COVID doesn't rear it's ugly head again. This will be our first experience with Hebridean, and we are very excited about it. Any advice or hints from past passengers would be great. Thanks!

That sounds fantastic! Make sure to pack layers for the unpredictable weather, and don't miss the afternoon tea on board. The guided shore excursions are a must for unique local insights. Have an amazing trip! 🌊🚢

That sounds like quite the adventure! I’ve always wondered how weather impacts cruises in such unique locations. Did the ever-changing Arctic conditions add an unexpected twist to the experience, or were there any memorable moments despite the weather? Hope you managed to catch some stunning views of Greenland’s icy landscapes and maybe even some northern lights!

I got advertised a bunch of these basically music festival on the seven seas that seem to have popped up. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I do like electronic music. Has anyone been? I know there's Groove Cruise, TechnoCruise and EDSea. Any feedback, was it worth it?
