zelker Posted February 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I see Maasdam is doing a transcanal in May 2016 that's ending in Seattle. Does anyone know whether she'll be doing the 14 day rt itinerary out of Seattle? We have friends who are finally going to book Alaska for 2016 and I'm trying to talk them into trying HAL for the first time and the 14 night itinerary in particular if it's going to be offered again. If it IS Maasdam, at least they can do some research about the ship (I've already shared this year's itinerary with them). Thanks, Barb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberta Quilter Posted February 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2015 On the HAL website, before it was recently redone, there was a link to the Cruise Calendar (I can't find it now) that showed the Maasdam was doing the 14 day Alaska cruise in May/16, after the Panama Canal. The cruise calendar did not go beyond May/16. One could hope that, if Maasdam was doing one 14 day cruise, she would be doing more of them for that season. But we won't know for sure until the 2016 itineraries are released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zelker Posted February 2, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Oh, excellent! I just found the cruise calendar via Google: http://www.hollandamerica.com/assets/Miscellaneous/Holland-America-cruises-Sailing-Schedule.pdf Since it's showing Amsterdam doing the 7 night rt, I'd say chances are very good that Maasdam will take on the 14 night one. :D Thanks!

Himself Posted February 2, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I saw someplace that the Maasdam would be doing the fourteen day Alaska cruise in 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zelker Posted February 2, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Check out this link: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2146684&highlight=14+day+alaska Thanks KK! I've passed all this info to our friends. Now up to them to decide which line and which itinerary. In the mean time, we enjoyed this itinerary on Amsterdam in 2010 SO much that we're booked to do it again this July on Statendam ... and will get to finally see Tracy Arm. Can't wait. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pspercy Posted February 14, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Thanks info. Never been on HAL but I've been watching the 14day Alaska itinerary since it started, maybe change plans for 2016. I'll have to go check reviews but I have seen many comments about uneven heating/cooling, plumbing etc so I wonder if they've all been fixed ? I notice she was built in 1993 so she's getting on a bit :) Thanks Edited February 14, 2015 by pspercy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
