newcruiser08820 Posted November 16, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I just got an email from HAL stating " Holland America Line is no longer offering the Certified One-Tank Scuba Diving excursion in Half Moon Cay. We apologize for any disappointment this may cause and have requested a refund to the credit card used for prepayment of this tour. " This is a post from another thread. Does anyone heard about that? What about other islands? We are on 3/31/07 cruise and planning to dive in St. Thomad and Barbados. Are the dives still offered on those islands?

momK Posted November 16, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I don't know about the other places, but dh paid for the HMC scuba on our 12/2 Prinsendam cruise, and we got the same email last night. RATS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrqoisWtrs Posted November 16, 2006 #3 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I think Half Moon Cay is their private island? If so, it might be because their compressor is broken. I remember signing up for a dive on RCCL's private island and it got cancelled because they couldn't fill the tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112 Posted November 17, 2006 #4 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Maybe it's because most of Holland America's passangers are too old to dive? From what my parents said, most of their fellow cruisers needed oxygen tanks just to walk around the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchdiva Posted November 17, 2006 #5 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'm surprised they discontinued the one-tank dive at HMC. My husband did the dive in March 06 and thought it was great....... And no - neither one of us needs oxygen tanks or walkers to get around the ship............just mid-50's with no interest in booze cruises.

Jacqueline Posted November 18, 2006 #6 Share Posted November 18, 2006 My guess is that it wasn't cost effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
