Thanks for all your food tips every one. I now know we won't go hungry. 😊

Is it possible to snack between meals when onboard? if we felt like some cheese and crackers, for example, can we get it anytime or just certain times during the day? Can you bring your own snacks on board ?

Oh no Haljo I dont see the scallops on your menu but they're on the sample menu on the HAL website. I dont eat red meat so hoping they're being offered.

That's interesting that extra entrees and sides are included on the HIA but extra appetizers are not. Thanks

I have the “Have it all” package which includes a night of specialty dining. I booked the Pinnacle. Do you know whether there’s a dollar amount that’s included and if we’d need to pay the difference if we go over that set amount? The drinks are done this way, so wondering if dining is the same.

I booked rhe HIA but gratuities weren’t included But at least I was able to book it! Interesting that some packages are different from others.

This is slightly off topic but is there a charge to go into the casino? I would think anyone is welcome if spending money but thought I'd ask.

I called a different number as suggested and was able to purchase the HIA package. She cancelled an excursion and rebooked it with the $100 credit. Thanks for helping with this!

What other department did you try Antkipper I had already spoken to a supervisor who said I needed to upgrade to receive the package and I noticed on their website it’s changed to mention the upgrade needed. Anyway, I already purchased an excursion so I doubt they’d give me a $100 credit back after booking the HIA but I’ll try!!

Today I decided I would purchase the HIA package but when I went to purchase it, I wasn't able to. I spoke with customer service who told me I wasn't eligible because I purchased a standard fare. I explained that this information wasn't mentioned on their website but they insisted it was. So apparently not everyone's eligible. He said I am "eligible." I just have to top up my fare and then purchase it which I won't be doing. I wonder if we need to sit at the back of the dining room because of our "standard fare. " Didn't feel good but on the other hand, I dont really need the package.

Thanks for your help so far...I see that wifi is $15 a day but still not sure what a soda,,bottled water a beer or glass of wine would would cost per day. My daughter wants the wifi so maybe we get one package for her and I get the drinks with it ? I would like to know how much a cocktail costs, being that the package has. a cap at $11 per drink. Seems odd to offer a package and not include cocktails that cost more than what you want to provide.

Thanks Oakridger for your info. I guess I didn’t do enough research before posting this. Still not sure if I’ll get the HIA. The excursions I’m interested in are sold out. Maybe I can smuggle some drinks in my suitcase . Jk

Im wondering if this "Have it all "package is good value but cant seem to find the individual break down of prices without the package so that I can compare. Would like to know how much wifi is per day and cost of drinks, including non alcoholic drinks such as bottled water. Seems we are charged for every cold drink throughout the day..This package does give a $100 credit towards an excursion which makes it more of a deal but would like to hear your thoughts on it. We drink a lot of Zevia at home which is a sugar free flavoured soda but dont imagine we can bring it aboard even though its not offered on ship.

I’m not concerned about the window size, just curious . They will pick the room so I don’t have a say in what it looks like. I will just go with the flow to excuse a pun. ( I wonder if you can hear the engines from deck one) Thanks Essiesmom for your suggestion.
