When we were on the Zaandam a friend of ours was in an OV cabin and she thought that the tub was high.  We thought it ok.

The Friend here-- I am only 5' 4" tall and 73 years old. Crazy for Cats is much younger and about 7' tall.

Tub was high for me.

It’s interesting that different people can have different views of the PG on the same ship and even the same meal.  I was on the Rotterdam with dfish and her sister.  We dined with them along with Sandy for a meal.  My meal experience was fine and the food good.  However, Sandy would view it differently.  Her meal was delivered to the wrong person and it was immediately noticed.  The server took the meal away, instead of just giving it to Sandy, then brought it back about five minutes later.  She also was billed for an up charge that was someone else’s.  So her view point would be less than good on this meal.

 

My DH and I went back for another meal on the same cruise and found the service so bad that we have no plans to book again.  Tables around us were seated after we placed our orders and they got their meals long before us.  When our food finally arrived it was lukewarm at best.  A 6pm seating should enable us to make it to the 8 pm show.  Not on this evening.  

Sandy here. I ordered plain vanilla ice cream for dessert which arrived after my tablemates had finished their slices of pie. Ice cream had melted. On the other hand, breakfast in the Pinnacle Grill was wonderful. Good food and excellent service.

Cruised a two week b2b on the Rotterdam to Canada in August. Spent the first week in a Pinnacle Suite and second week in a Neptune Suite. Loved both cabins!!! Crew and staff were wonderful! Ship was in great shape. Enjoyed it so much that I am cruising on the Rotterdam again Thanksgiving week.

Thank you everyone.

Thank you.

My husband and I will be on the same cruise. Wondering the same thing. I think it will be chilly so planning on packing jeans, sweatshirt, warm clothes. I hope I never have to wear them. But if this weather doesn’t change, I will be wearing them on the first day 💨☔️💦

Same here. Could be chillier on the water. Packing clothes I can layer.

Anyone here know the name of the Hampton Beach ( I think it's Hampton Beach or near Hampton Beach NH) restaurant that serves the BEST seafood/lobster? It's picnic tables and you hammer open the lobsters and it's just fun and messy? It's been SO long since I've been in New England ...

 

p.s. It is NOT doable for a cruise stop.

Do you mean Markey's or Brown's in Seabrook, NH just before the bridge to Hampton Beach?

Interesting the boat sailed with unaccounted for luggage. A plane would never do that. I do understand they are dealing with significant amount of pax, but if you fail to check in through security, that plane will not fly until your checked luggage is off of it for security reasons.

Not always true. Ten minutes before I was to board a Southwest flight from Tampa to Manchester, NH my nose started to bleed heavily. EMTs were called and took me to a local hospital. My luggage continued on to Manchester without me.

Well said Crazy for Cats!

Thank you everyone! I took the upsell to the Pinnacle Suite.

I received an email at 3:17pm east coast time on 18 May. I was at work and did not see the email until an hour later. Was surprised the suite was still available.

Daughter & I are on the veendam to Bermuda June 17, Full obstructed OV. Received offer to a Lanai - Took it!!!!!

Husband and I are also on the Veendam to Bermuda June 17, were in a Neptune Suite, received an offer for the Pinnacle Suite - Took it!!!

Sandy

Certainly will do that. We have the aft corner port side so will wave from there during sail away. Sandy and Wayne will be on the balcony with us. Champagne has been ordered.

Wayne and I have the same aft corner but on the starboard side. I also ordered champagne for sail away!!!:D

Darn, I missed it. I'm watching Channel 4.

Sandy

Thank you for the information Maple Leaves and Dan G.

There are only two of us, so a taxi should be fine.

Glad to know Cedarbrook Lodge can help us with transportation to Pier 91. Really looking forward to our pre-cruise stay there.

Sandy

Just booked a deluxe king balcony at Cedarbrook for next July. Do you know if they can arrange transportation to Pier 91 or should I find my own transportation before leaving home?

Thank you.

Sandy

I'll be waving back at Jake and Juan from home wishing I was on the ship.
