smart move .Suggestion , depending on how you feel ,you may want to buy future cruise credits for $100 each . You may also find a HAL cruise that came out within 90 days where as even a one star Mariner (one past cruise ) you will get extra on board credits from the future Sales Department on board Statendam . We did this in December while sailing on Koningsdam & booked the 14 hight Mexico.solar Eclipse Cruise on Zaandam for March 30 .2024 . We got a total $500 new on board credit & then my Travel Agent gave me a better net price
Ph we used the (2 ) $100 FCC I also bought on the ship as the total deposit . Of course ,if we have any bad negatives like the food quality on our 18 night Hawaii Cruise on Koningsdam Jan 30 2024 ,I will cancel this Mexico cruise . We think that is fair to everyone
