Frogso Posted May 14, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2005 Does anyone know what kind of pillows HAL ships have, particularly the Statendam? I use a feather pillow and carry one with me if my destination doesn't have them. Since I'm going on a 15 day cruise, I'd love the room in my suitcase for clothes and not a pillow. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd Ball Posted May 14, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 14, 2005 There are feather pillows available, but only on request for S and PS passengers. If you are not in the S or PS cabins, play it safe and bring your pillow along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvcruzin Posted May 15, 2005 #3 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I bring my own pillow with me. I strap it on my carry on. They don't count it as a personal item when flying. I've had people comment while waiting to embark "what a good idea". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin7 Posted May 15, 2005 #4 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I bring my own pillow with me. I strap it on my carry on. They don't count it as a personal item when flying. I've had people comment while waiting to embark "what a good idea". In 1991, on our first cruise which was on the Westerdam, we purchased some HAL T-shirts, white with the ship-within-a-ship logo in royal blue on the front. They got thin and unwearable so I sewed the sleeve hems and neck shut and turned the hem at the bottom up to make a casing. I put a drawstring in the casing. When we go on cruises now, we put our pillows in these knit cases and carry them onto the plane with us. (It keeps them clean!) When we travel for other reasons, we use the 'cases' as dirty clothes bags. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frogso Posted May 16, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I love the idea of making a special cover for my pillow when I travel. Can't wait to check out my Tshirts to see if I have any that are appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhshapiro Posted May 17, 2005 #6 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Here's a suggestion for HAL... A "pillow menu" -- since the beds are made up with twice as many pillows as are needed why not use pillows of different height so that pax can choose the ones that they find most comfortable for sleeping on.
