Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I cruise with HAL because I can attend daily mass on board. However on the last 3 cruises there was no Priest for daily mass and non for Sunday as well. I am curious how many others have experienced cruises without a Priest on board? And more importantly does the lack of priests on board affect which cruise line you will use in the future?
  2. This was the first HAL ship we sailed, it was in December of 1998.
  3. I am finishing 14 days on the Noordam. The room key is in the mail box for your room when you get on the ship. This key card is used for everything, even for ship booked shore excursions. No longer do you need tour tickets. You meet the tour operator, they scan your card and you proceed on your tour. It makes it very easy a nd less paper to deal with. Very easy.
  4. Duh... should have read this when I was more awake.
  5. If you received your vaccinations at a local store like a Walgreens or CVS, you could go back to that same store tell them you lost your card and ask them to fill out a new card for you. I had one that was damaged and Walgreens made a new one for me. Did you take a picture or scan an image of the original card? See you on board, John
  6. Dave, the aft verandah is deeper and the room of similar size. I typically booked aft cabins and have not noticed any greater motion than the rest of the ship. I fully enjoy the view while underway, seeing the whitewater mixing with the deep blue of the ocean. Then there is the relaxing sound of the water. The vista is great, being able to see both starboard and port gives an aft cabin extra benefits while doing the inside passage. Enjoy your travels, John
  7. My experience is that the same room stewards covered both the neptune aft and the inside cabins. The concierge even covered both. John
