    Yes, thank you I'm aware of that and have done tours from operators other than HAL. My query is if I already have a tour booked with HAL and also a tour waitlisted for the same day - will they contact me if spots come available for the more desired tour.

    Hello, Query about how the HAL Shore excursion and the waitlist. Booking for our upcoming cruise and I've selected a shore excursion and paid for it (just so we have an excursion). However, I've waitlisted us for a more desired excursion. Will HAL still notify us if the more desired excursion comes available - even though we've booked the alternate choice?

    We sailed in January - 22 day cruise. Spent a fair bit in the casino. Got chocolates / bottled water delivered to cabin. No comeback offer. No email offers since returning. Haven't received anything in quite awhile.

    I think so, we were on a tour. Did not end up having to take the bus.

    Yes, can confirm there are buses. $20. Not an easy walk - quite a long way. Some folks saw king penguins to the right of where the bus stops - they walked a fair way along the beach to see them though. FYI there is washrooms at Gypsy Cove. Better to go early in the day as the adults go out for food. We saw some chicks and a few adults.

    Boarding Oosterdam on Wednesday. Masks required for at least first 3 days.

    THanks, I found some info a from a few years ago - that there is a shuttle available at the visitor center. Hopefully that is still true. Will update the post when we return.

    Thanks for all the great info. DH and I will be together when we go - learned that rule from another cruise line.

    Thanks. It is for Puerto Montt, Chile and Puerto Chacabucco, Chile tenders.
  11. Smeecanada
    Thanks, will have a look at excursion times.
  12. Smeecanada
    Thanks everyone. We'll get there early and hope for the best - no mega stars for us or suite life. We are on the Oosterdam.

    I've been on multiple cruises and have tendered before, but have never had to make sure I get off in time for an excursion not booked through the cruise line. Does anyone know the procedure on how to secure an early tender? Do I go to Shore Excursion desk? Thanks
  14. Smeecanada
    Found it - thanks. Don't like being waitlisted for something that I won't be doing and delaying the chance for someone else to get the excursion they want.
  15. Smeecanada
    Okay - thanks will have a look again.

    Is this on the HAL app only?

    Hello, We are on some HAL shore excursion waitlists for our upcoming trip. We've made other arrangements for a couple of excursions. How do I go about removing us from the HAL waitlist?

    Thanks, we have decided against getting the shares at this time. We board HAL next week, so hoping the offers start again after the cruise.
  19. Smeecanada
    Thanks, will have a look again. We are on HAL in early January - so it might kickstart the emails coming again.

    Hello Have heard about a bus that you can get at the dock to Bertha's Beach to see penguins. Has anyone done this? Details on time, etc.?
  21. Smeecanada
    So, once you log into HAL - where are you searching - Find a Cruise or Cruise Deals or ? . Are you then filtering it by price? Sorry, websites have too many options sometimes and hard to figure out. Haven't had a cruise offer in months.
  22. Smeecanada
    Thanks for the info.

    We have received casino offers - however haven't received an email since September. Anyways, does anyone know if you book a cruise from a casino offer (free cabin or with a small fee) if you can apply shareholder benefits as well if you own Carnival shares? We are thinking about purchasing shares.
  24. Smeecanada
    On our recent free oceanview Alaska cruise. Guarantee cabin - no upsell offered.
  25. Smeecanada
    I must be missing something. I get the casino emails. How do you search the website for deals not on the original listing. We are looking for some of the longer cruise deals, but our recent offerings have been mainly for the 7 nights.
