Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted August 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 5, 2023 9 of our past 10 cruises with HAL post Covid have been in suites . So what are your pet peeve(s) with HAL ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenofEverything Posted August 5, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I don't see the point of starting a thread only to solicit negative responses. And I also don't know why you feel a need to state that 9 of your last 10 cruises were in suites. 🤨 53 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelMagnolia9 Posted August 5, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I went into my HAL account this morning and found it mostly wiped out. It had my name, no address, my next booking was gone and it states I have zero cruise credits. It was basically an account shell for me. I’ll have to call them when they open. Frustrating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has happened before. It’s a website glitch. It will probably be fixed in a few days. If you are going to call, I’d wait until Monday when all the departments are working. By then, you might not need to 🤞 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelMagnolia9 Posted August 5, 2023 #5 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Thanks, kazu. I’ll call Monday if it is not restored before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldog Posted August 5, 2023 #6 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I don't know what a suite peeve is but I think it's weird that they cut the blueberries in half. It isn't even cost-effective. 4 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, but now my booked cruises are restored. (My Mariner level banner is still missing inaction.) It’s probably undergoing some upgrade - this may have to do with “onboard credits” section. Yesterday it showed that I had a $50 credit (probably the new AARP promo). Today it showed a sail by date in July 2027 for using that credit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BetsyS. Posted August 5, 2023 #14 Share Posted August 5, 2023 My pet peeve with HAL is when people sit in the Lido FOR HOURS PLAYING CARDS! They see people walking around looking for a table so they can sit down and eat their meal. People should be considerate of their fellow passengers! 28 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like your pet peeve is with the people enjoying their time together, rather than with the cruise line. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisemom42 Posted August 5, 2023 #17 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Lack of enrichment or other interesting activities on sea days Current lack of classical music onboard ships 15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pet peeve is similar......again, fellow passengers..... I have no use for chair hogs.....We watch them mark their territory with books, sunglasses and towels while we are eating breakfast by the lido pool and then we watch those prime pieces of real estate being hardly utilized all day. (dealing w/both of those situations has to be a "no win" for HAL....not sure you can create a rule for common courtesy.....it's a learned behavior taught by Mother...or not taught, IMO) 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather dwell on why I enjoy HAL rather dwell on the negatives. Every cruise line has their plus’ and negatives. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was biggest complaint on my most recent cruise. People parking themselves in the Lido during peak meal times. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
