Thanks in advance~ There may be a more recent edition of the list, but this is a fairly recent one I found. It is updated periodically with only the date changed, so you can search for a more recent list if this one doesn't answer your question: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2911622-february-2023-update-hal-dry-docks-charters-groups-onboard/#comment-64858305 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzanne123 Posted May 31, 2023 #383 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Thanks for the deck plan! I booked a VB on Deck 4. It’s aft and hopefully a better view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzanne123 Posted May 31, 2023 #385 Share Posted May 31, 2023 It’s not at the very back of the ship, but just near the aft elevators. The VB category has larger balconies and I hope better views than the VA I was considering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @maggiev 8 looks to be every so slightly deeper, but that could be poor eyesight, lol. I don't particularly care for being under the Lido, so 8 wouldn't be my first choice, but I don't think it's so loud it's a deal breaker. If it was 8 or no aft, I'd take 8. 4 is my personal favorite because I like being as close to the water as possible for wildlife viewing. Some ships have really large decks on 5, this doesn't so they're all fairly equal. hal-na-deck-plan-083022_230418_000138.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted July 29, 2023 #388 Share Posted July 29, 2023 I've looked at the deck plans but it does not give an inside view of the cabin so I'm looking for pictures of cabin 4154 on the Rotterdam. HAL used to have pictures of their cabins giving a 360 deg view but I have not seen those in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcrcruiser Posted October 8, 2023 #392 Share Posted October 8, 2023 When we sail in 2025 B2B cruises on Zaandam we will have sailed at least one ship in each class .The Saandam will be 26 years young in our 2025 B2B cruises . Dor the first time we will ve ona smaller ship than we ever sailed un any cruise line . By then we should be 4 star Matiners Just wish HAL would reinstate the round trip South America cruise which they once did on the Massdam from San Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules815 Posted October 8, 2023 #396 Share Posted October 8, 2023 On 7/22/2021 at 7:01 AM, RGEDad said: One of the things we have really enjoyed is after dinner (we dine early) - and all the nights festivities - is to go to the Pizza place on the ship and get a late night custom made/custom cooked pizza. Unknown to me - and this only came to light when booking the myriad of post-COVID cruises - not every HAL ship has a Pizza (NY Pizza/Slice) place. It appears to be only the Signature & Pinnacle class have them on-board and all my previous cruises have been on these two classes, except for one. Early in our cruising life we did sail on the Westerdam - but that was before we understood the finer things in late night cruising life... The (first world) problem is, now I have to consider the NY Slice/Pizza availability when booking cruises. Just makes things a bit more complicated in these troubled times. I use a Web site called CruiseDeckPlans now to find what & where various things are available, along with Cabin location, and a variety of ship/cabin photos also. https://www.cruisedeckplans.com Do they package the whole pizza up so you can take it back to your cabin?

Yes, if you let them know, they put them in a box. At least they have on our cruises. They can fit 2 per box with metal pans/plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea42 Posted October 8, 2023 #398 Share Posted October 8, 2023 We will be on Oosterdam in 1/2025. Can anyone tell me if the veranda cabins on deck 4 have bathtubs or shower only and are they older with shower curtains? Also, has the library been restored on the Oosterdam? Thanks!

cruisingrob21 Posted October 28, 2023 #399 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Kdam cruisers, just noticed tonight that the lights around the sea view pool were removed this afternoon. Not sure if it's temporary(for cleaning or something) or for something new. They will need to put something there because right now it's just wires hanging out. They also removed a steel lattice that was over the red box in the photo below where you can also see the wires around the pool.

cruisingrob21 Posted October 28, 2023 #400 Share Posted October 28, 2023 There are a lot of shore based contractors onboard the Kdam in San Diego today. Some large cranes are preparing to hoist some crates onboard near the aft pool; the whole area is closed off to passengers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
