I'm experiencing the same on both my iPad and Android phone. The static menus are fine (breakfast, Pinnacle grill, ...) but no luck with the lido and MDR menus. Prior to this I noticed the MDR menu wasn't changing daily. I would get the "Dutch" one or one of the gala ones, but none of the regular MDR offerings. I'm not sure of the timeline but I think it's been a week or so with no menu and about a few weeks prior with no real daily updated menus.

I have zero experience with the “key in the mailbox” process but is there any “activation” that happens in the checkin process? So if someone does go to the wrong cabin, and they try to open the door, the card wouldn’t work since the real occupants haven’t checked in? I know this wouldn’t stop it if the real occupants have checked in but haven’t made it to the cabin yet. But in that case, hopefully the error is quickly discovered and corrected.

I read that as two different cutbacks, the Lincoln Center was one and the 2 pianos to one was another. -

HAL's Teacher Appreciation Offer and AARP OBC offer
bajae replied to RRFan's topic in Holland America Line
It’s worth a call to see if you can get the credit applied. I was verified for the military and education credits prior to booking and they appeared automatically. The AARP offer became available after I had booked and I called and was able to get that applied. I was able to stack all three OBC offers as well as the stock holder’s credit. -
Just wanted to clarify that besides dogs, miniature horses can also be service animals. From the posted link: “In addition to the provisions about service dogs, the Department’s ADA regulations have a separate provision about miniature horses that have been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. (Miniature horses generally range in height from 24 inches to 34 inches measured to the shoulders and generally weigh between 70 and 100 pounds.) Entities covered by the ADA must modify their policies to permit miniature horses where reasonable. The regulations set out four assessment factors to assist entities in determining whether miniature horses can be accommodated in their facility. The assessment factors are (1) whether the miniature horse is housebroken; (2) whether the miniature horse is under the owner’s control; (3) whether the facility can accommodate the miniature horse’s type, size, and weight; and (4) whether the miniature horse’s presence will not compromise legitimate safety requirements necessary for safe operation of the facility. For more information about the ADA, please visit ADA.gov or call our toll-free number.”

Just read that Holland is planning on three sailing in Europe to align with the path. https://www.aol.com/news/ship-move-why-watch-future-191407387.html

Do you know if the Captain is planning on shutting off the ship lights?
-
That was mentioned.

Same, I enjoy both methods but listening allows me to “read” a book when I’m busy doing other things; driving, cleaning, gardening, etc.

That is a plus for going on a cruise to see the eclipse, well besides just being on a cruise. Those who are traveling to a land location may not be able to relocate to a cloudless sky as easily.

I know I will not be able to leave the ship in San Diego with fruit or plant material (flower lei), but can I bring them on the ship while in Hawaii to enjoy on the ship before we get to San Diego?

NEWS FLASH: HAL to favor Triples and Quads
bajae replied to crystalspin's topic in Holland America Line
Hotels generally don’t charge per guest so there isn’t a need to “fill” each room. I would imagine hotels will rather have all rooms booked with a single guest than have all beds full. -
Live Review Koningsdam Feb 17-March 23, 2024. Hawaii/Tahiti
bajae replied to BermudaBound2014's topic in Holland America Line
Could you share what "permission to dance" is about? Thanks! -
My personal experience, with a job that is only sort of customer facing, is that an email/note to the supervisor is the best. I do really enjoy and appreciate personal notes of gratitude and the occasional gift (it does make my day) but let my boss know, they’re the ones who decide on promotions/raises, etc. People are quick to complain to the “manager” about bad service, we should be just as quick to let the manager know about good service.

It seems much faster to me as well on both my iPad and android phone.

First time on HAL - how is it different?

Fyi, club orange will only be $15 per day/per passenger for a 17 day cruise. -
No more embarkation day lunch in the MDR fleetwide!
bajae replied to Real NHDOC's topic in Holland America Line
I’m just curious how this move saves much money. I would think the cost of feeding passengers would be very similar no matter where they eat. IMO, this is more likely a staffing issue. Less staff is needed with passengers eating in the lido allowing more staff available for other embarkation activities. -
Shareholder OBC and military rate/OBC ?
bajae replied to Tom-n-Cheryl's topic in Holland America Line
It was automatically applied for me but I made sure I was verified before I booked.
