It is quite possible 🤷♀️. I do know this cruise we are on now is fantastic so far. We booked it a long time ago & only found out it was called a Legendary cruise when we got the bags in our stateroom. The dining has truly been a step up from our cruise in November on the Eurodam, especially in the MDR. Last night we cancelled our Tamarind reservations when we saw the MDR menu offering escargot and lobster etc. Service was great too.

The entertainment has been great-we enjoyed “The Company Men” performance tonight before our late dining. Supper was delicious too. So far this cruise has been a pleasant surprise in food & entertainment. Not sure if the video will load but I’ll try. Apparently it won’t upload. Sigh. IMG_2802.mov IMG_2802.mov IMG_2802.mov

We had dinner in the Pinnacle tonight which was pretty good. Service was excellent. I wanted to try something different this time so had the scallops which were ok but I wouldn’t order them again. Mr Bear had the lamb chops which he’s had before & enjoys them. We went to the comedian show tonight who was Sid Davis. This was the 8pm show & it was a packed house. He was very good-lots of laughs & I usually don’t go to comedians. I think HAL has changed the show times to accommodate more people as they are now at 6pm & 8pm. Not sure how busy the 6pm one was so if someone was at it can you advise? Our usual fixed dining is as 7:30 but we dined early at the Pinnacle.

We are on the Koningsdam now so I’ll attach a photo. Sorry it’s a bit crumpled-was in the pocket of my husband because we’ve been using it as a score sheet for our card games. (I’m winning in case anyone wants to know 😂)

We had enjoyed our late dining on the Eurodam as a table for just us two in November. Found it extremely efficient-in & out in an hour. Unlike last night on the Koningsdam-late dining, table for two & very slow & busy. It was our first night on the K so hoping it goes better. Tonight we are going to Pinnacle so will see on Monday how our late dining if improved.

We were in a Neptune suite in November on the Eurodam. The sparking whatever they give in the suite we give away to someone we meet or once we exchanged it for a bottle of wine. We had the HIA so this time we just gave it away. OP, not sure if Princess will still be one of the Neptune concierge but she was great. Enjoy your return to a Neptune suite & have a great cruise.

When on the Eurodam in November we asked the server if we should advise when dining elsewhere & he said no, didn’t matter. If you have reserved specialty dining they can check but not if you’re just doing Lido. We are now on the Koningsdam & forgot to mention to our server we’d be dining at the Pinnacle tonight. I think it’s courteous as well to let them know so I’ll go to the main dining room later to advise & see what they say on this ship.

We were surprised today to have a smooth and easy boarding. I hope everyone else did too. We have late dining and the food was plentiful and delicious the service was quite slow but it’s only the first night so no biggie. We are now playing cards in the Crow’s Nest & can feel the rocking of the ship. Sweet dreams to all!

Totally agree. In November it was seamless and disembarkation was the easiest we’ve ever had.

Do May Alaska cruises generally not sail full?

Hmm…I might have to mention to my PCC we’d love a resident off. I could pack in a heartbeat to Alaska! Thanks. -

How do you get resident offers-is there somewhere to sign up!? -
Formal nights dress code - does HAL enforce?
canadianbear replied to goforyourdreams's topic in Holland America Line
We were pretty shocked to say the least-and not even a nice t-shirt.
