  1. Would anyone know or like to speculate if the Coast Guard inspection will take in NYC and/or in Miami? Wondering what sort of embarkation day we might have boarding in Miami on Dec.11. Also, anyone on this sailing have an early boarding time? Ours was moved to an even later time. Thanks!

  2. Planning on doing this in just a few days. The recommended/default train on 

    return trip is 10:40. Next option is 11:40. Would that be wiser “just in case” any issues with luggage, lyft, customs, etc.? Would we be able to change tickets to earlier train if we did arrive early enough? Thanks for any thoughts!

  3.  This is our first trip to Europe and first cruise on MSC:) We are booked on a 6 night cruise on Divina next month boarding in Marseille to Valencia. I am getting ready to book a train from Valencia to Barcelona, flying back to US the next day. Arrival shows as 8am and I am looking at the 10:55 train leaving from the Valencia Joaquin Sorolla Station. Traveling light so can carry off all our own luggage. Will we need to go through customs? Is this timing going to work comfortably? Thanks so much for your thoughts!

  4. Thanks so much for your review! Can you please elaborate on the kids club? Types of activities, lots of free play or more structured time? Sports, crafts, games? How crowded was it? We will be traveling with our 10 year old daughter who has cruised quite a bit and definitely would appreciate anything you could share. It makes for a wonderful trip when they make friends, have kind,fun counselors and LOVE to go.

  5. We were on the Veendam June 2013 Quebec City to Boston for 7 nights. We thought the food in the MDR for dinner was probably the best of our approx 16 short cruises on most of the mainstream lines; primarily with Celebrity. In contrast, our last trip was on the Ruby Princess and the food for dinner in the MDR on that sailing was actually pretty bad. The Veendam was our first sailing with HAL and we leave tomorrow for our second cruise with them on the Eurodam.

  6. Thank you! This wonderful review has made me even more ridiculously happy to be sailing on the Eurodam this Sunday. We have Tamarind reservations but will now add Canaletto to our to do list. I hope you don't mind a few questions. Can you tell me when the Mariner brunch was held and are one star Mariners invited? Also, how early might we be able to board and do you recall what time passengers were able to get off the ship in St. Thomas? Again thanks!
