It is anyones guess, but things dont look good over there

It amazes me how many wear the robe to the Lido restaurant

On Noordam, no separate area in dining room. Just one Club Orange item each night at bottom of regular menu

A quick phone call to your TA or HAL upgrade department would give you a definitive answer

Kudos to HAL Noordam for their laundry service. Sent out a stuffed bag for laundering at 3 pm yesterday and at 10 am this morning it was back in my cabin all nicely folded.

We are also currently on the Noordam ttans pacific. Are you sure you are on the Noordam. So far dining room meals have been excellent and good portions. Wait staff have been excellent. Piano performers have been great and very well attended to capacity. World stage has been full each night and performances have been IMO average compared to other cruises I have been on. Rolling stone has been rockin every night. I did an Alaska 14 day cruise on the Noordam in 2019 and I dont see any difference other than no production show. I guess everyones expectations and observations can be different

That was a great opportunity for you to show support to your friends and help them board based on their status rather than yours -
NEVER book a 7 day Caribbean Cruise on HAL
retird replied to Real NHDOC's topic in Holland America Line
This thread hints , no screams , of entitlement. We , the customers are in no position to dictate who a cruise line allows on a cruise. I agree with the one post that if a few kids bothers you, sail at a different time or pick a cruise line that only allows adults to book. Being 4 or 5 star gives certain perks, but does not entitle someone to dictate who sails on the ship. The families money is just as appealing to the cruise line as the upper * mariner. -
The 28 days involves two cruises. A 7 and a 21 day. It is only the 7 day that is fully sold. The 21 day still has lots of ov and Balcony cabins available. Did you book it as B to B. If so did you ask for a paid upgrade for the second leg. Currently it is not available for booking as one 28 day cruise. That is quite common with HAL. I currently have a 25 day one booked that was earlier sold as a 39 day. The first 14 days sold, but the 25 day still has cabins. I had a guarantee and was assigned 20 days out and got an upgrade three days later. So there is always hope

If its the NA leaving on Apr 6, there are still high end cabins available so if ov, veranda move up, it might create a domino effect

NEWS FLASH: HAL to favor Triples and Quads

It is a guarantee. I booked that way for my upcoming cruise -

Would it not be cheaper if you had him sleep in your stateroom rather than pay single supplement twice -

As stated by someone else “except for suites” -
NEWS FLASH: HAL to favor Triples and Quads
retird replied to crystalspin's topic in Holland America Line
And since the description of suites indicates, triple or quad for all of them, if im in a neptune as two and a triple or quad reservation gets assigned my cabin, wonder what equivelant cabin they could move me too. I know it is hypothetical and maybe an overreaction of sorts, but the question begs to be asked considering the new policy -

I did and since I am booked on Noordam, I checked deck 6 and deck 7 and none of the suites have those symbols. Yet I know some are quads because I am in one. -

And have you seen how reliable the IT system has been lately? -

And when you are viewing the deck plan how do you know which cabin has a sofa vs a pullout? -

When selecting a room where does it show me whether it accommodates 2, 3, or 4 -
Yes that is the scenario I am talking about. I was just asking in case someone had done that. I won’t be speaking to pcc until tomorrow

Question for those who may know. I have a neptune guarantee(SC) which includes free crew appreciation. If I take a paid upgrade to a neptune SB or SA, would I keep the free crew appreciation? It is a 25 day cruise so crew appreciation is a hefty sum of money. Thank you.

Im assuming you wouldn’t be flying to the cruise port
-
I just tried getting the HAL insurance but was refused. Reason: Because I booked with a non refundable deposit, cancellation fees begin to accrue immediately. They told me I needed to purchase the protection at time of booking or within 24 hours after booking. EASY TO BOOK. Cancellation Protection Plans can be booked until the date cancellation fees begin to accrue (varies by cruise). Opt in when making your booking or visit Manage my Bookings to add a plan to your existing reservation.

If for some unknown reason you ever need one of the tools in the multi tool, you can always call maintenance to do whatever it is you need to do. Leave your tools at home. Its a holiday

Well the issue of clockwise or counter clockwise and left side or right side is definitely a First World Problem. Sheesh
