No in room breakfast on disembarkation day has been our experience on HAL for all cruises we've been on since the re-start; includes Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Nieuw Statendam and Eurodam, all as recently as Oct 2022 - May 2023. So not new policy and has been discussed on several threads here, but may be new info to you.

I think they need to do a better job of informing passengers...

Thank you a kind & fair response!!

New Rule??? 
This just in …. Disembarking tomorrow. 
News to us…. No in room breakfast IF you are disembarking, & not continuing on next cruise! 
Great customer service!!! NOT!!! 
Must be one of there “new rules” !!! 
Never again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 

Do you know what actually goes on during a turn-around day?

 

Think about this for a while, and why it is understandable the onboard crew will be stretched very thin, have been working through the night before getting all the departing passenger luggage hauled out of the passageways, going through all sorts of end of cruise food  services cleaning and inventory accounting for the next one, let alone getting ready to bring on new replacement crew members, after saying good by to the current ones.  All in one very busy day, and previous night before. 

 

Hope over time, and on any other cruise line you choose, you recognize how cruise ships in fact do operate and how they cannot call out for shore-side, temporary Kelly Girls to provide you ensuite breakfast on turnaround day.  Bon appetite.

 

Turnaround day requires cutting some slack Now you know. No mistakes next time.
