Juneau was cloudy. We didn’t do an excursion

Thank you for your feedback. Origins was showing in the daytime. I wish they would have a show every evening.

We did a 7 day cruise, inside passage round trip from Vancouver. Overall it was a wonderful cruise. The staff were wonderful. The ship is in very good shape and is easy to navigate. Food was a mixed bag- MDR was good but not great. The lunch in MDR is understaffed but better at dinner. Pinnacle Grill dinner was superb but slow. The Lido was much better than most buffets. The cruise director,Gage, was below par. Guest services were great. The three ports were Juneau( not impressed), Sitka (wonderful) and Ketchikan ( nice). There wasn’t much entertainment. The comedian was very good but on 3 nights the main showroom was dark. We will book HAL again and want to on a ship no larger than NA. ps- I hope Julia approves of this post🤣

probably not new to most but I am shocked by how expensive Vancouver is. I don’t know what others think but Ft. Lauderdale is my favorite embarkation city.

I agree with the comments. To me, food is not the primary reason we cruise. I don’t expect five star food when you are serving that many people. That said, the last time we cruised on Celebrity the food was well below par so we won’t be cruising with them.

Oh, I now understand that you have never stayed in that cabin. Thanks

How was 10028?

We have a deck 10 veranda cabin on an upcoming Alaska N.A. 7 day cruise. I received upgrade offers for Neptune and Signature Suites. Neptune was too expensive and Signature basically is just a larger space. We are going to stay in the one we already have. Anyone think we should upgrade. We are not in our cabin except to sleep. Thoughts? TIA.

We are on a 7 day Alaska cruise in July. We will see how it goes. If it is good, as I believe it will be, I think the price HAL charges is much more reasonable that the high end cruise lines. And they seem to have very good service and good itineraries. So if all goes well, we will book HAL again. Thoughts?

Deck 10. Veranda

We have been offered an upgrade to a Signature Suite (550 pp) or a Neptune Suite for 1150 pp. this doesn’t seem worth the money unless you get perks in addition to a little more room. Can I get some advice on this offer? TIA

I found that on the port of Vancouver website

On the day of our embarkation, N.A. will be the only ship there. I would think that would decrease the wait times.

Please tell me what a Nexas line is. Thanks

Thank you. ☺️

Thanks

How early can you begin to check in with HAL at the cruise terminal? Thanks

Total per person

We went at 11. Got right on

We will never sail X again. Poor service and food.

Let me know what you find out. We are going the end of April on NA on deck 10
