oh that’s not good. We’ve been on the Koningsdam with a similar theater seat to guest ratio. It was very crowded. One night they had some guest dancers, we went to the theater 45 minutes early and there wasn’t one single seat left, not one. We heard the next morning it was a great show though.😕

Why oh why do they stick us with those awful hangers! Even when you remove them you're stuck with the rings taking up space. With all the trend towards thin hangers you would think they would get the message. Other then that, it looks very nice. We have one on the 2025 world cruise. I hope someone does a tour of the club balcony dining room.

Interested in a comparison between HAL and a Scenic River cruise?

Thanks for the clarification! -

Are you talking about a deal you had for one bag or are you saying that everyone on the boat (other then suite) are only allowed one bag each? -
Cunard re routes QA 2025 World Cruise

Same here and I've tried chrome, firefox, etc. -
Queen Anne World Cruise - will there be an itinerary change?
Cruise NH replied to Cruise NH's topic in Cunard Line
I used a naval term and I didn’t even know it! -
Could you let us know what it said? Where are they going, around Africa? Thanks.

Hadn't heard about Princess, that is interesting. -
Queen Anne World Cruise - will there be an itinerary change?
Cruise NH posted a topic in Cunard Line
I see that HAL has already announced that they will not be taking the chance and go through the Suez Canal on their 2025 world cruise. QA is currently scheduled to go that route and I'm wondering if that will hold. We're debating taking this cruise and wouldn't mind if it detoured to Africa but that would be quite a change for them. Is there any scuttlebutt about this? Also I can't believe I just wrote out the word 'scuttlebutt' for the first time in my life. -

Cruise NH replied to 1of4's topic in Holland America Line
This is an interesting topic for us! We're on our first river cruise, on Amawaterways, next month. We're going from Budapest to Nuremberg and then onto Prague for a couple of days. The cost of flying business class to Europe is so high we felt we had to do more while there so after Prague we're flying to Amsterdam to do a 14 day Baltic cruise on HAL. I guess we'll see the comparisons up close and personal. -
Danube water levels 2024 and similar topics - plus tips and info
Cruise NH replied to notamermaid's topic in River Cruising
Just found this site, very interesting! Thanks for posting. We'll be on our first river cruise this year, May 15th leaving from Budapest on Amawaterways. We're hoping for nice weather and normal water levels! -
I think a lot of the horror stories about boarding in Boston are from before 2023. We were on the Voyage of the Vikings last summer. We got there around 1ish and it was a breeze, no problems at all. Everyone was very professional. I didn't hear of any difficulties from anyone else either.

oh good my memory isn’t going after all! Thanks

Do you pay the suite gratuities rate with this type of room on the Volendam. I know it’s really just a balcony room but I seem to remember on the smaller ships it counted as a suite even for double mariner points but I could be wrong.

A reality post: what happens if your spouse dies on a cruise?
Cruise NH replied to ghstudio's topic in Holland America Line
I don't think this is a creepy subject at all, it's just a necessary one. Similar to a previous poster we keep a file with all our financial and insurance info in our safe and let everyone in the family know where it is. Beyond that, this past year, we sent a letter to our close family members to let them know how to handle things when (not should, remember we all go) die. We told them to have our remains cremated where ever we are in the world, not to have a memorial service and basically do whatever is easiest and best for them. We'll be dead, we won't care. We wanted to make sure they had no guilt about any of this process. Have fun with the insurance money!- 50 replies

We looked at flight ease for an upcoming trip where we're going into one city and back from another. That's two one way flights on flight ease. Instead I used the 'multi city' selection (depending on the airline it's with the round trip or one way selection) on my favorite airline's site. The multi city choice was a little more then the round trip price but not as pricey as two one ways on the site. I would recommend looking at the multi city option if you have a favorite airline and want to be in complete control of your booking. Not all airlines offer it, eg Delta does, Jetblue does not.

Thanks. I’ll check that out.

Did you find the transfer in with the shore excursions, or some other way? We have to go from SeaTac to Canada Place next September. I would love to take the train but the very early and very late departures aren't convenient. Quick Shuttle is fine if you really love riding on a bus and making a lot of stops! Amtrak does run a bus a few times a day from the King Street station on better times, that can be an option but in the end we might just do the one hour flight unless HAL offers a shuttle.

We're on a Japan cruise from Vancouver next year. The ship stops at Yokohama (for those just doing the trans-Pacific) and then goes around Japan. We'll disembark at a port simply called 'Tokyo'. I understand Yokohama is a city of course but they indicate Tokyo tours are available from there. So what is the 'Tokyo' cruise port?

Will Celebrity cancel Turkey ports for 2024
Cruise NH replied to cricketlover's topic in Celebrity Cruises
This subject is interesting to me. We have a HAL cruise scheduled for Sept '24 going to Turkey and Egypt. Hoping it goes but reading the Celebrity forum is not making me optimistic. -
Transportation to Ijmuiden from Amsterdam Airport
Cruise NH replied to Cruise NH's topic in British Isles/Western Europe
Roy - thanks so much for the pic Roy, Thanks so much for the pictures. Yikes that would be difficult with luggage so a taxi would be needed. -
Transportation to Ijmuiden from Amsterdam Airport
Cruise NH replied to Cruise NH's topic in British Isles/Western Europe
Could you walk from the hotel to the port? It’s not a Holiday Inn anymore but it’s still there under another name. -
