Correct - signature suites have same perks as regular verandahs - the benefit is that great balcony🫣 True suites are Neptune and Pinnacle; the names are a bit confusing.

When Can Excursions/Specialty Dining Be Booked?
Haljo1935 replied to Bill B's topic in Holland America Line
Anytime dining won't show on your itinerary since it doesn't have a fixed time. If you change that, then it will show. Safe travels - enjoy your cruise! -
Oh, yes, thanks - it's on my list 😏

Interesting collection of days, Ms Diller was funny but I'll skip her quote, the meal sounds good, maybe on the drink and wine, not been to the port, important day in history. Work, work, PT, laundry, packing and work today. And printing luggage tags. Currently chilly 39° headed to 61° with 68° on Travel Thursday. Prayers and positive thoughts for all.- 104 replies

Navigator App says 3 more days - oh boy!! Website says since less than 4 days, it's too late to add anything, but will allow me to book New Year's Day Pinnacle Brunch. Hmmm? Website says menu is a sample, but it does have the 150th logo, so I'm wondering if it's the actual menu. I would go if it is. I'm not booking excursions, but a girl's got to eat🤭 new-year’s-day-brunch-at-pinnacle-grill.pdf

Another cut--Lido cakes on Glory
Haljo1935 replied to DallasGuy75219's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Funny - couple weeks ago on another line, I asked for a smaller/thinner slice (knowing I wouldn't eat all of the big slice) and was told the cake was too soft to cut any smaller. -
Sept B2B we only ate in the Lido a handful of times; MDR, Steakhouse and Teppanyaki were all mostly good. Teppanyaki was hands down favorite.

It's too early. You can only get approval for cruises that fall in the approved term; it gets voted on each year and once approved, you can submit for the next years'

Pics of the new Nieuw Statendam Library
Haljo1935 replied to newtocruiseinblue's topic in Holland America Line
NS does not have the monitors - there's a nice unobstructed view! Pictures are on my phone and I'm not, so I'll add a couple later. -
Pics of the new Nieuw Statendam Library
Haljo1935 replied to newtocruiseinblue's topic in Holland America Line
Library was also added to Eurodam during her April drydock. -
Yes and you can split a load into cold and warm - all do not need to be the same. Same for hang dry and machine dry. HAL laundry is my happy topic 🤭😅

I considered your question worthy of asking - valid question and caused several of us to take another peek at our statements, which is not a bad thing.🧐 This forum exists for us passionate (or just curious) cruisers to gather, exchange info, and ask questions. I hope you reconsider your future and initiate a thread when you deem appropriate.🤗

Note that CO is capacity controlled so it may not be available when you call.

I have the worst PCC in the history of cruising and don't use her except for the 1 cruise that still "belongs" to her. I haven't requested a new one because I don't have the name of a good one to ask for and if left to chance, I'm afraid I will get another bad one and don't have the patience to endure that nightmare. I have read far too many posts about bad ones and have only purchased losing lottery tickets, so I'm fairly certain which way the PCC pendulum will swing for me... I think the good ones that handle my part of the alphabet are probably at capacity 🧐 With that said, there are good (and I hear even great) PCCs and you can request to be switched; just call the number and ask for a supervisor as @crystalspin suggested. A good PCC will help you have a great experience and get you the best deals available. If you want to use one, as others have said, you should be able find one that fits your preferred communication style. Note that PCCs generally work days Mon-Fri. Even w/o changing PCCs, you don't have to use the one you've been assigned to - you can just book yourself online or call in to Reservations and someone can help you. I have been doing that since getting assigned to my current PCC and none of my bookings have automatically been assigned to her, FWIW. And no, my PCC has not sent me a link to book an appointment w/her, but I am aware of that process; HAL may be using it now.
