HA vs. Princess : recent comparisons.
MISTER 67 replied to blueexpedition29's topic in Holland America Line
We love the open closet on Princess, seems like things are easier to access plus thereâs room to store your luggage. -

Story on the news this morning on how people are starting to revolt with tipping getting out of hand, I for one despise it when in a restaurant you receive the check and there are suggested tips at the bottom of the check, the other day we had one that had 20%, 30% and 35% and each suggestion included the tax which is plain wrong. Just about everywhere you go now you will see tip jars for things you never thought of tipping for before. I also donât like it when the server asks do you want change back if you leave more than the what the tab is.

How much do you spend during your cruise ship port stops?
MISTER 67 replied to OlsSalt's topic in Holland America Line
Hardly anything now as we are in our late 70s and very seldom leave the ship, as the saying goes, âbeen there, done thatâ but back in the day we spent quite a bit especially in St. Thomas and Grand Cayman for things like jewelry, watches and Lladro not to mention tours. On European cruises we have spent around a thousand dollars on each cruise for tours and souvenirs. -
2 dollar bills were very popular in the USA back when horse racing was so much more popular than it is now as most bets and the payouts were based on 2 dollar amounts. If you spent an afternoon at the races, itâs more than likely you came home with more than a few 2 dollar bills. I never heard that they were unlucky.

Agree, on land and at sea.

We usually on the last night give our waiters 20 each and also the cabin steward. To tell the truth if the automatic gratuities keep rising much higher, we might cut out the extra cash.

Such Negativity-Anything Positive to Say?
MISTER 67 replied to Jamietravelstheworld's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Weâve been on 10 cruises since the post-pandemic startup, 5 with Celebrity. Cruising for whatever reasons has changed and is not the same product pre-pandemic, not just with Celebrity but with just about all the other lines. That being said we have still had very good cruises with only 1 that was disappointing and that was with Holland America. I would not hesitate booking with Celebrity if I were you, in fact we are sailing on the Equinox next month on a 9 day cruise to Grand Cayman and the ABC islands. -

We donât care for most of the Production shows, DW calls them angry singing and dancing but that goes for most of the cruise lines, we walked out of 2 Production shows on the Sky Princess in December. No complaints we the other entertainment.- 85 replies
