Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

    Where to eat crab

    So, are there other places to get Dungeness in Vancouver???? I doubt that we'll go to Granville Island, but will be staying near Canada Place for several days pre and post cruise (yes, we really enjoyed our stay in Vancouver last year, so booked another cruise for this year)
  2. That looks like a significant improvement from the menu we had about 4 years ago. At that time, it was an OK experience, but I wouldn't have made an effort to attend again. This looks interesting. Thanks for asking the question.
  3. Note that fresh squeezed OJ and Mimosas are complimentary when in a Neptune Suite. We've only been in the Club Orange dining room on the three Pinnacle Class ships, and Cappuccino was also complimentary there, so it may also be in other classes.
  4. FYI-----we've been able to use the drink voucher for other drinks besides the special one (within a certain price cap), so you're not obligated to drink something that doesn't sound like something you'd enjoy.
  5. You can check FCCs/FCDs under "My Profile" on your Holland account on line. There's an expiration date---- the ones I bought 11/22 don't expire until 11/26
  6. I couldn't see this either and was having a LOT of trouble with the website a few hours ago. I Iogged out and tried again and finally could see Prepaid Crew Appreciation at the end of the booking . But it's taken all day.
  7. Have checked several times this morning and when I book an Alaskan cruise for next summer that is labeled "Black Friday", nothing shows up about pre-paid gratuities. Have tried both the Cruise Only and HIA fares. By the way, the price is slightly lower than in the past weeks, but that lower price was visible a few days ago, so no further price change.
  8. AND, a Rexall drug store in the same place.
  9. Yes!!!! Especially since the balcony has the only regular size table that's comfortable to eat on (but we "make-do" with the coffee table for dinner). Unlimited laundry is our favorite---we can pack much less. The concierges are very very helpful, and we don't have to stand in line at Guest Services. They can even assist with some internet/computer issues. Tea or appetizers before dinner is quite nice. If you have a beverage package, you can get soda, water, and some simple alcoholic drinks in the Neptune Lounge and sign for them. The complimentary tea in the Lounge is excellent, as well as the coffee/capuccino/espresso machine. We ask for a large paper cup and get it 'to go'. The snacks in the Lounge apparently are different on different ships, but on the 3 largest ships we have excellent shrimp cocktail at lunch and tasty little sandwiches (the same every day, but still tasty). Enjoy!
  10. The price I see for a Neptune is $12,324 per person, before taxes/port charges and noOBC. Don't think that works for me.
  11. The airport is about 10" from the port and there's always been a line of cabs. We usually don't leave the cabin until 9 and have always been at the airport before 10 (having used luggage direct, so we don't have to deal with suitcases).
  12. I just canceled a cruise two days ago and the FCD was returned to my Mariner account as a FCD within 24 hours.
  13. No hot foods until 11 or 11:30 and none after 8 PM
  14. Thanks so much for your experience and insight!
