AS we Retire....thanks for CC

[a.madruga]

Loyalty is not in our cruise vocabulary, so as DW retires next year we will be cruising more but three stars might be we all care for from HAL

as our cruise was pre hotel $2300+ for two nights and excursions that we like booked months ago and paid for are now being changed to make room for 

IOO Eurodam passengers....and last but not least our cabin booked Nov 2023 for July 2025 was one we liked location but have been told you might lose 

it if needed..,because of quad but nothing was said at booking time. We could go on and on but, retirement will give us more time to cruise but search before you buy...

Where are your hotel arrangements being changed to accommodate the Eurodam passengers? Are you being "walked" to a different hotel? And were the excursions part of the hotel package?

FYI: Any time one books a cabin where one does not meet the potential occupancy of the cabin (two passengers in a cabin for four), there is a chance one will be moved if a group of three - four passengers needs that cabin.

 

The chance of being moved is higher if the cruise date is at a high demand time of year.

 

This true on any cruise line.

Nothing is gained by booking hotels through HAL. You can book them direct and save money.

I don't understand the problem and what it has to do with retirement.
