123Funcruiser456 Posted February 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hoping to have answered a couple questions prior to our trip: 1. on 11 day (south east Caribbean): when are gala nights? We depart from Ft. L, then 2 sea days, islands, then 2 days prior to disembarkment, another sea day back? 2. does anyone have access to the "daily news" sheets that cruise lines usually give the nite prior? What is the name of the "news"? We would love to view them! 3. do they do "wine blending classes" or wine tasting classes? 4. is there any photo packages? if not, how much are individual pics? 5. is there a "welcome" drink when boarding? thanks so much to all that can help here, getting excited about the cruise as it comes closer!

Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted February 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2019 My 11 day itinerary probably wasn't the same as yours. We had 2 sea days on the way down, but only one on the way up. Second sea day southbound was gala, and the one northbound (next to last night) was gala. The daily program is called When and Where. I don't have them digitized. But do a search for threads by crewnews because his website has lots of that stuff. Menus, too. They have "blend" where you blend our own wine. I believe there are photo packages, but I never bother with them, so I can't tell you prices. No welcome drink when you board, but bars are open and selling.

123Funcruiser456 Posted February 20, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Thank you so much! Yes, I did find "crews news" with the menus that was very helpful, too. Hoping I enjoy Hal, as I have not been on this cruise line before...... FC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leanstostarboard Posted February 21, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 21, 2019 On my October 2018 Koningsdam cruise there was a photo offer that gave you all the photos the roaming photographer takes of you at port stops, gala nights etc, on a USB card for $100. We had about 55 - 60 photos on the card. Photos were about 1MB in size which will give you a decent 8x10 if you print. I thought it was decent value for the cost.
