On my three HAL cruises to Glacier Bay, we stopped only at Margerie Glacier and the ship slowly spun 360°. It's a wonderful day in the National Park! ~Nancy

Ha ha!! I did the same thing!! 🙄

How fun! Thanks for the info! ~Nancy

I hope that management was informed about the disorganized serving of the lobster! It makes so much sense to serve everyone one portion first then if there are any left let folks come back for a second serving. Buffet service 101 ~Nancy

Yes, I can see the menu now, but the OP was asking about the Indian menu in the MDR. Do you have that? Thank you, ~Nancy

@cruiseaholic78 your post isn't working.

Rudy's is only on the three Pinnacle class ships. Konningsdam, Nieuw Statendam and Rotterdam. ~Nancy

Even Vista and Signature Suites? I didn't think they had priority when I last sailed in a Signature Suite (2019)

Thank you! I have enjoyed reading along. ~Nancy

@Ferry_Watcher might be able to answer your question. He/she works at the pier in Seattle, I believe.

Sorry @gizmodog I realized I posted for the wrong port so I deleted it but I wasn't fast enough! Sorry for the confusion!

@Welshtony Have a look over on the "West Coast Departures" board for tons of information about Vancouver! West Coast Departures - Cruise Critic Community Have a great trip! ~Nancy

You mean Mick and Dolly?? 😉 ~Nancy

Hello @didlysquat and welcome to Cruise Critic! It would be better to post your question on the forum specific to your cruise line and ship. Please give the name of your ship and the date it will be in Alesund in order to answer your question correctly! Have a great time in Norway....I'll be there on Havila in 5 weeks! ~Nancy

Thanks for sharing your good times! Enjoy the rest of your trip to Alaska. ~Nancy

Excellent! Thank you for reporting back. I'm hopeful that HAL will not make the same mistake again by closing off important public areas to the general passengers for private use by a large group on board. They appear to be listening to feedback regarding upping the food and entertainment, so this is another positive step for HAL management to make happy customers! ~Nancy

@VMax1700 I also am so happy to see the enhanced regional foods in both the Lido and MDR! The party by the pool looks so great and fresh air to breath while dancing! (Weather permitting of course) There have been reports on other ships about classical music and additional music added in the World Stage too! It sounds like HAL is listening and adding what many cruisers have been missing since the restart after covid. I'm feeling good about this! I really hope that guests that are pleased with the new/improved food and entertainment offerings are giving lots of positive reinforcement to HAL via "Tell Us" on the Navigator app and post cruise surveys! 🙂 Thanks for sharing all the good stuff happening on board! ~Nancy

WOW! @Crew News That is excellent news about the smooth and organized embarkation!! 🙂 Have a wonderful trip and I will be checking by each day to follow along with you. Thank you, ~Nancy

From the descriptions, it sounds like the same kind of event! Crawl....Hop......I guess it depends on how many drinks one has!!! 😁 ~Nancy

No. Reservations are not taken in the Club Orange dining room.

Yep, the missing U threw me for a loop until I found out how the name came about! From Mr. Google: "Its initial name was Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services Limited..." I loved flying on them for my first time back from Sydney to LAX! Have a wonderful trip! ~Nancy

Yes.

Thanks for the reminder to use the App instead of waiting in the dang Guest Services line!! ~Nancy

That's quite the diverse cruise line up! I would think that you will find your "style/fit" somewhere in that group along with other previous lines you have tried! I would love to hear your impressions after all these experiences! Thank you and have wonderful cruises over the next 18 months! ~Nancy
