Need email address of the CEO or President of Holland America
Petunia1950 replied to Shashi21's topic in Holland America Line
The president of Holland America is Gustavo "Gus" Antorcha. His email address is gantorcha@carnival.com. And in all probability he will not respond personally. But someone in his executive office should respond. At least that's worked for me in the past with other large companies. -

My Navigator app says 2 days, 16 hours, 44 minutes until my journey starts on the Nieuw Statendam. I *think* I can make it. It's been a long time coming 😊- 123 replies

I'm 3 star and my PCC was able to add it. When I first asked, she was out of the office and the PCC covering her calls said it wasn't possible. But when my PCC got back to the office, she was able to get it quickly applied.

And she was confirmed for a 3:45 pm departure. I hope Oosterdam isn't as late as she is ... But good things are worth waiting for ! -

The best doctor I ever had told me once -- "just remember 50% of doctors graduated in the bottom half of their class". And he wasn't one of those. But it did make me realize that doctors are NOT all-seeing, all-knowing. They are human, just like the rest of us.- 97 replies

The Fleet Report and Daily for Monday September 11th, 2023
Petunia1950 replied to richwmn's topic in Holland America Line
On September 11, 2001, I was working in an office building at Dupont Circle in Washington, DC. The terrace on the 9th floor looked west toward Virginia -- buildings in DC can't be taller than 130 feet on commercial streets so we had an unimpeded view. After news got around about the terrorist attacks, most people in our firm ended up on the terrace. And we could see smoke rising from the Pentagon with F16s flying so low that you felt like you could almost touch them. And then the office shut down for the day. I generally used the Metro's yellow line to get home, but since it crossed the Potomac River via an over-ground bridge, it was closed, so I walked several blocks to get the Blue line – a longer trip for me, but one that was still open since it was underground for the most part. Every store front going down Connecticut Avenue to the Blue line station had a CLOSED sign on the door. There was virtually no traffic, since the bridges used by automobiles going into Virginia were also closed. Metro's Blue line stop at the Pentagon was also closed, and Pentagon employees had been bussed to the next closest stop – Arlington Cemetery – some of them with visible signs of injury, albeit minor. The ride was almost in complete silence and we sped through the Pentagon stop virtually holding our breath. The main thing I will never forget because my house was 2 miles south of National Airport and because I was raised in the Air Force, I was used to hearing planes take off and land day and night. For the next two weeks, there was nothing -- just eerie silence. On the Sunday that the airport opened long enough to let the private planes leave, I cried because things were finally returning to normal. Except unfortunately they have never returned to normal. I think everyone will remember exactly where they were at that horrible point in time.- 101 replies
