In fact -- no one for quite a few months have posted any menus. I didn;t even save mine from our Zuiderdam cruises. We have found that the menus on the longer cruises are so much better than those on the 7 and 10 day cruises -- more variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example on our 2008 repostioning cruise on the Westerdam there were very few activities. Did the same cruise in 2009 -- wow -- tons of activities. What a difference a year made.

You won't have to put down the enite $1680 up front. But you will be asked to pay so much as the $11 per person Hotel Service Charge is done daily and you will need to cover that.

Put down the amount you think would be good based on your daily expenses, and keep in mind the $11 per person per day for Hotel Service Charge as well. Put that amount down, and just know that if you exceed that amount, your card may be temporarily suspended until you put additional funds down. But that's not a problem in the slightest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchByAssociation Posted May 13, 2010 Author #1420 Share Posted May 13, 2010 What would be a normal deposit for an ocean view cabin on the Nieuw Amsterdam cruise April 2011, 27 day transatlantic? Typically Europe sailings (transatlantic is under Europe) will be $600 per person plus the cost of the insurance/travel protection if you select it. Specials will occasionally come up that reduce the deposit though, and some exceptionally long sailings may have other rules. Best to call Reservations about that specific cruise to make sure you get the right info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Category doesn't make a difference on HAL, but if you;re getting the insurance/travel protection that price goes up with the base price of your cruise, so that can vary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were other items never offered as well. Like I said -- menus differ by ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's not a problem in the slightest Thanks I will do that.It is so easy to keep track of your spending now that you can just look it up on your TV.I think 1000$ will do it with money refunded.
