Mandalay1903 Posted July 31, 2023 #26 Share Posted July 31, 2023 We'll be sailing on the Oosterdam in January. Glad to hear she'll be in for a little mani-pedi before facing the Southern Ocean... Thank you @VMax1700 for compiling this great information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRPLE Posted August 2, 2023 #27 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Please add I asked the person whom I’m to coordinate the m&g with at HAL on when the volendam was going into dry dock… she replied… “It looks like the Volendam will be in dry dock from 19OCT24 to 09NOV24” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking in to see whether you've seen any further information on this possible charter of the Noordam? I'd be interested in a potential continuation of the prior 14-day sailing, but at present it's neither available nor "sold out" on the HAL or big box sites at this time. Thanks, and hope you're doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm sailing on the 2024 JoCo charter). I know that they have a contract with HAL through 2025 but they typically do not announce the next sailing dates until they are onboard the current one (because current attendees have first chance at booking/rooms). This year was slightly different in that they announced their 2024 sail dates *before* the 2023 sailing -- I think to drum up interest and get people back onboard. I'm semi waiting to see if they release 2025 sail dates in Jan 2024 or wait until March 2024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship will be in Singapore on 24th November and will also sail from Singapore on 8th December, but I have no concrete information on what is happening on those two weeks.

Shalandara Posted September 2, 2023 #40 Share Posted September 2, 2023 3 hours ago, Banditswife said: that looks interesting. I have friends who go every year. Since my DH seems to only like HAL and since (currently) JoCo is only doing HAL, and also only sailing from the East Coast (which is way more convenient for us) we finally decided to take the plunge. Really not sure I could do it every every year (because while I love games and costuming) I am not up to that much intensity every year. And it does count towards Mariner days for sailing. Although it wont show up in my HAL bookings until sometime in February. (That's when cabins are assigned). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECCruise Posted September 15, 2023 #43 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Anyone know what the 4/05/-/4/19/2025 hole in the Oosterdam schedule is. Can't find either drydock or charter for that 2 week period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find either drydock or charter for that 2 week period. When we were on Oosterdam from late March to mid April, 2023 the captain said that the ship would be going into dry dock in 2025. There is speculation that it might go into dry dock on October 8th of this year for 12 days, but it may just be chartered for those dates. I am on board for 26 nights beginning October 20, 2023, so I am trying to keep up with any information that I see about it. So far there hasn't been much of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triiip42 Posted October 13, 2023 #47 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Hi @VMax1700, Thank you for the time and effort to put out this info. My question: The Koningsdam Alaska voyage K449, Aug 3-10, 2024 has disappeared from the HAL cruise planning listings. Do you have any info as to why that might be? We have it booked and can see it in our bookings. But it has disappeared from the HAL main page. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triiip42 Posted October 13, 2023 #49 Share Posted October 13, 2023 @VMax1700, Thanks for your reply. Checked all my filters then looked again and on the page that pops up showing the different cruises in Alaska in Aug 2024 for the Koningsdam, it doesn't show the Aug 3rd cruise. But now found that if I click on the "view 4 dates and fares" it shows the Aug 3rd date. Then when I click on it I get the "error" page not found message.😬....so sent an email to PCC asking about that and got...We see that same ERROR you are seeing so sending it to the IT dept. to check out. Thank you for your time in checking it out and replying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not being pulled from gen pop and being replaced by a charter, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
