CyndieGrams Posted May 14 #51 Share Posted May 14 Has anyone done the "New England Seafood Boil? How was it? We are trying to decide if we should make a reservation. We are booked on the Oct 5th, Montreal - Fort Laurderdale sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovetexas Posted May 15 #52 Share Posted May 15 @CGinMTL Thank you for the tips, we’ll be on the Boston > Montreal cruise on May 25. Since we booked an interior stateroom and I believe you said you did, too, can you confirm if there are the regular Elemis products in the bathroom? Trying to decide how much to pack. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNKY Posted May 15 #53 Share Posted May 15 Yes. Elemis products in wall mounted dispensers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEIDI59 Posted May 16 #57 Share Posted May 16 Loving the tips. I have some questions. We are a group of 11 going on Volendam on June 8 from Boston to Montreal. Can anyone tell me about the blow dryer in the room? I was on HAL last year and if I recall it was just a very basic blow dryer that worked fine for my husband. Do they have an Orange Party on this cruise? Also, it appears every night is Smart Casual and no Dressy nights? Also, they have only let us request a table for 6 in MDR, has anyone had a problem getting a large table once on board? Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted May 16 #58 Share Posted May 16 Every HAL cruise has an Orange Night. Your Navigator will adjust and list two 'dressy' nights closer to the cruise, or when you board. I have never seen tables for 11/12. Ask for two tables for 6, next to each other, then mix it up every night! I have done that with various groups of friends several times, and it is a lot more fun that way. With 5/6 at a table, you can actually talk to each other. Changing tables each night allows you to sit and chat with everyone. Being next to each other allows for some chatting back and forth. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your response. We have planned on 2 tables and will ask them to put close together. After 40 years of friendship, we still have a lot to chat about! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
