Just looking at my signature shop ship models in anticipation of purchasing the Ryndam and Zuiderdam models for my upcoming cruises when I noticed that my Eurodam model. although labeled as the Eurodam. was really an Oosterdam class model. Anyone encountered this problem? Who might I contact to resolve it? Or perhaps there is a rare market for mislabeled models and I should look forward to lots of money to sell this "oddity".

Thanks for this great information. Could someone please update it for the Nieuw Amsterdam and Eurodam signature class ships and the new pinnacle class ship. This is great information for new cruisers and would be a magnificent update from an intelligent poster like that of this first sticky post

Or follow the suggestions to point this topic to a new address?

Thanks

Does anyone have a favorite chip and pin credit card provider in the USA, especially one that does not charge foreign transaction fees? I found a few, but was wondering if anyone has been especially pleased with a type of card.

 

Please forgive me if this information is somewhere on the boards. I did try to search, but kept coming up with info about the need for a chip and pin card in Europe rather than any suggestions for a US based card.

 

Thanks very much in advance to all!

Our Citi Hilton Honors Visa Signature card has chip and signature and no foreign transaction fees. It costs $95 a year but comes with 2 Hhonors points per dollar purchase, two free night certificates and 50,000 Hhonors points. The 50,000 got us two free Hilton nights in Rotterdam. I knew I needed the chip but found out how important it was when purchasing a train ticket in Amsterdam and was quickly informed that I could not use my card because it didn't have a chip, which it did but this "ugly American" had his thumb over the chip as he presented it.

The safes on Nieuw Amsterdam and Eurodam are considerably larger than on all the other ships.

 

Beg to differ but the Rotterdam, Eurodam and Oosterdam in 2012-2013 in the Neptune suites all seemed to have the same size. Must assume that the size is the same despite the accommodation class. Thanks sail7seas for all your posts and information.
