Not sure how this works but HAL may need to take a look at how this email is formatted. For this Canadian the email shows all the amounts in Australian dollars.

HAL 17 day cruise April to Hawaii Questions
SilvertoGold replied to SteveOdore's topic in Holland America Line
Please be aware that the cruise terminal at Canada Place tried out difference methods of embarkation this Alaska season. We did tree cruises and are not sure waht the parameters were.It may have depended only on how many ships in port, but we found having 3 ships in port made for the best set-up, easy, fast. With our one ship in port in October it was a long line, long wait, not nearly as good. Next year it could be anything, maybe the same, maybe a different set-up. -

Yes! Map isn't very well done, but the HAL website shows it does! This is one excellent cruise! Thanks a lot! -
2026 Grand World Voyage Itinerary Change
SilvertoGold replied to kevingastreich's topic in Holland America Line
LOVE this itinerary, first WC we would consider but there is no Antarctic, too bad! I suppose the timing is off for that, otherwise this has some excellent ports, for us way better than the "same old" of so many WCs. Good on HAL! -
HAL 17 day cruise April to Hawaii Questions
SilvertoGold replied to SteveOdore's topic in Holland America Line
Glad you got a nice place to stay in Richmond. I am amazed at the pricing for the Pan Pacific: with the huge USD exchange advantage it really shouldn't be so much! -
We found HAL could add to the selection of non-fiction books: multiple copies of just a few titles were all that was on offer. Suggest anyone wanting a decent selection of any type of books go the very first day onboard. HAL cruisers are readers!

Formal nights for 17 day Hawaii cruise on Koningsdam
SilvertoGold replied to flickchick's topic in Holland America Line
Agree: not very dressy. We did have Ball apparently, "dance with the officers and crew" on the last Gala night. -
Formal nights for 17 day Hawaii cruise on Koningsdam
SilvertoGold replied to flickchick's topic in Holland America Line
We had 3 on the October Koningsdam Hawaii.I didn't write this down but I think there were 2 on the way over and 1 on the way back. First was the third sea day. We usually go to the specialty restaurants on Gala nights as we are very tired of these menus. -
Family Oceanview Cabin Rotterdam IV
SilvertoGold replied to saltshell's topic in Holland America Line
Loved ours on the Koningsdam. Very spacious, a ton of storage, I used the second bathroon in the mornings, getting "presentable" which takes some time, while my DH spent his (long) time in the main bathroom. For us it was great. Only drawback was after shower in the second bathroom there is a tight space to dry off in. I am quite small so it was OK for me. -
Wondering when HAL will add the 6th star level. It is a long, long way from the 5 start (POINTS) rewards to President's Club (1400 DAYS) special perks.

Brilliant!!! Thank you so much!

I would love to be able to read this menu but it is light blue on a white background and even if I increase the size it is impossibley blurry!

The Pinnacle lunch menu on my APP for next week's Koningsdam is very similar to the old menu with a few additions. Anyone have the "new" menu mentioned here, both for lunch and dinner?

Has worked for us for international air, much cheaper than airline pricing. You need only a booking number (by placing a HOLD on the cruise) to view the Flightease site.

HAL Website: Sign In Section, "Exclusive Offers"
SilvertoGold posted a topic in Holland America Line
I have noted for a couple of months now when I sign in on the HAL website (top right corner of the home page) The tabs show one called "Exclusive Offers". I always look, never anything. Just wondering if anyone has actually had any offers showing under this tab? -
Great plan! A plus: HAL ships now have Libraries with a really broad collection of fiction and non-fiction. The days go by so smoothly, no rush, no fuss. Every day is as different or similiar as you want it to be. We have done the Auckland to Vancouver twice and loved every minute. Your plan sounds perfect!

Question about Birthday while on cruise
SilvertoGold replied to JMB1969's topic in Holland America Line
This is a good idea since it can be hit or miss when just telling your TA. -
New Sommelier Suite / Wine Packages with adjusted prices
SilvertoGold replied to Alphen's topic in Holland America Line
Prices the same but selections on this new list are quite different from the Noordam in both March to April and September, plus from the N Amsterdam in July and now the Konignsdam is showing on my App as the same prices but the prvious selctions. -
London Drugs has given us no problems over the years. The rules seem quite simple so I wonder what the problem with that particular Walmart is.

DH loves HAL's muesli, from the MDR. Never go near the Lido for breakfast or order room Service, so have no idea about the offerings there. In the MDR on the Nieuw Amsterdam the muesli was definitely second rate, yet on the Noordam, both in March-April and July it was excellent, although missing the hazelnuts.
