QUASI-LIVE Rotterdam VII: 14-Day Atlantic Sunsets & Exotic Isles
SDARCH replied to *Miss G*'s topic in Holland America Line
Please continue! We are on the voyage following yours and would love to hear about the on-board experience. -
If your boarding pass is available in the app...it should be...mine is there for the cruise following. Open your boarding pass and click "Tap for more information". It will show how many Gala Attire Evenings. Information comes and goes on the App Itinerary in the weeks preceding your cruise.

I have always found the Navigator app to be very hit or miss on the two weeks prior to a voyage. Functionality comes and goes as they add events to the calendar, etc.

We had a Bronze-only event on our May 2023 Trans Atlantic. 95 recipients. Medallions were on our bed a couple of days before - and we didn't think to bring them to the event. I assume the other levels had a separate event.

We loved our excursion to Sete Cidades. Even the bus ride was tolerable due to the abundant natural beauty on the way (and a few beers in our backpack).

Are specialty restaurants on holland america worth it?
SDARCH replied to latebuyer's topic in Holland America Line
We take butter with us as well as salt and pepper and old bay. -
@WriterOnDeck Congrats on the Platinum Medallion - lots of amazing memories to get there!!! Smart to reserve a table. Rumors that the MDR crew switched at the end of the GWV. Any truth to that? We had zero issues other than the MDR.

Was that the May Fort Lauderdale to Rotterdam TA on the Zuiderdam? We had the absolute worse experience with the MDR. It was complete chaos. The C.O. podium was useless since it was serving all three lines. 3 days in, we switched to the Lido for dinner - we had NEVER eaten in the Lido for dinner before and we have been on a few HA cruises....got our Bronze Medallion on that voyage. Also, we learned A LONG time ago...if you want a glass of wine at dinner....bring it with you. Didn't ruin our cruise though....we adapted and had a blast.

Yes and yes.

I hope Alissa is still on board in May. She is fantastic and we never missed a show when she was on the N.A. in October 2019.

HAL sent email survey to people who have been on a cruise 24+ days
SDARCH replied to BetsyS.'s topic in Holland America Line
This was actually a follow-on survey for me. A few months ago I got a survey probing our interest in longer cruises with questions about specific itineraries. -

SDARCH replied to BetsyS.'s topic in Holland America Line
I got the survey as well but have never been on a cruise over 17 days. Do have two bookings though - one for 28 days and one for 35 days. @BetsyS. my answer was 3. 3 consecutive ports before a sea day. -

She is fantastic. Heard her perform on the N.A. in Oct 2019. Hope she is still on board in May when we sail.
