Already saw the post about the ASL terps on the HAL cruise.. thank you though for bringing it up.. hopefully someone has a currently relevant direct contact for the company.

Update: I'm trying to find guidance to getting HAL to provide an ASL interpreter for this cruise..

Yes I know about this.. thank you.

Thank you. Already moved this to the correct forum. Thank you

Hello. My name is Jay and I'm deaf. I'm going on a 14 day cruise from Athens to Rome Nov 2-16 2024.. I'm currently talking with HAL about them getting an ASL interpreter for me for the cruise. They initially said they would not provide ASL interpreter for the cruise but if I provided my own, they would provide the terp a free cabin.. the following is an excerpt from HAL's email to me regarding the terp.. ("Upon receipt of documentation showing that the interpreter is certified in American Sign Language (or the equivalent for guests that are not United States citizens), Holland America Line will provide the interpreter with a minimum category inside stateroom. The cost of the interpreter’s cruise fare, Required Cruise Fees and Expenses, Government Taxes and Fees applicable to the stateroom and Crew Appreciation will be waived. However, shore excursions, pre-cruise packages, post-cruise packages and other optional programs or services are the responsibility of the guest or interpreter. Similarly, air or other transportation arrangements to/from the ship at embarkation and disembarkation are the responsibility of the guest or the interpreter..").. any help would be appreciated!
