Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We almost exclusively stay on deck 4, somewhere over the dining room and there is absolutely no noise from below. Love the extended balcony.
  2. Call a PCC or HAL and ask for the ‘advantage fare’ which is cruise only and a refundable deposit. It is only slightly more than the non-refundable ‘cruise only’ option that is online. The advantage fare is not an online option.
  3. This makes little sense. If I have a quad, and Jack has a quad, and Jill has a quad, but we are all sailing as couples - then who does HAL choose to move because someone else needs a quad? And why choose one over the other. Certainly they wouldn’t leave it up to the requesting party? We have pretty much always had a quad - a stateroom I choose - and I have the reservation marked ‘no changes’ (I don’t want their version of an upgrade). IMO, if you need a quad you should be booking early (like I do) so that you can get the cabin you want. And if HAL doesn’t want that to happen, then a quad should not be included in my choices.
  4. Shampoo and conditioner are provided and replenished. I like the Elemis products - they are a luxury brand, scented, but not at all heavily or lingering. I have a sensitive scalp that is prone to severely drying out, but this product does not bother me at all so I think it is gentle. It does clean and wash out well with no waxy residue. I absolutely love the skin moisturizer provided. A hair dryer is also provided in the top desk drawer.
  5. Do you mean the Navigator app? I would have expected everything to work as it did before re: connecting via the app, surf vs premium, etc - only (I hope) much faster. But thank you!
  6. They have pickleball courts now - we’re looking forward to that on our first post-covid cruise scheduled for next month. Also Starlink now provides (hopefully) better connectivity. Staying active and staying connected are important to me.
  7. I book my own economy+ (whatever allows for change/cancellation), fly in 2 days before and I don’t choose flights with short connection times - minimum 3 hour layover (lessons learned)
  8. We also have always had deck 4 somewhere over the dining area and haven’t ever heard noise from below. Great location, great balconies.
