🚢 🛳️ 🚢 Bon Voyage to sp2 - August 5th, 2023 🥂 🥂 🥂
sp2 replied to kazu's topic in Holland America Line
Thanks all! Can’t wait! -
Maybe, although you’d think that would hold up both ships. At least they are on their way! Can’t wait for our turn in 4 weeks!
-
I think the Princess ship left on time. I thought the check-in security and Customs clearance was combined for all cruisers from both ships in Vancouver? So it must have been something specific to Koningsdam. Hopefully all is well and someone will report back. We leave on her in 4 weeks!
-
I see. Wonder what the delay was.
-
Anyone know why she hasn’t left yet? I thought departure was 4:30 pm but it’s 7:30 pm and still looks like she isn’t moving. Curious!

Great review! Thanks so much for sharing!

Koningsdam Inside Passage review: June 24-July 1, 2023
sp2 replied to QuattroRomeo's topic in Holland America Line
Did they give you a discount on the Club Orange since you couldn’t take advantage of the cabin upgrade? -
Cabland, where is the smoking area on Koningsdam? I know it’s in this area at the back, but is it port side or starboard? Are there table and chair seating or lounge type seating? On Nieuw Amsterdam it was starboard I believe, with chairs and tables. Thanks! Just trying to compare.

Did you catch anything?
-
Another Ottawan! So glad you shared this experience with us. My hubby is doing this excursion when we are on the Koningsdam in August while I go to the Lumberjack Show. What a treat it will be if he catches a salmon and we can have it for dinner! Looks delicious!
-
We will be in 8190 on Koningsdam in August! Glad to hear it’s a good location. How do you add Club Orange to your booking? I have seen nothing about it online in our booking. Do you recall the cost? thanks!
-
These are great cabins! Huge balcony. We found it quiet and no issues. You will enjoy!
-
We will be on this cruise in August. I see folks referring to going through customs/immigration before boarding. We are Canadian. Will we need to go through this process? Or is it US immigration since we will be travelling to Alaska? Does having Nexus shorten the wait time? Thanks!

Our S2S Adventure - Freedom / Spirit (with pics) - 1/7/23

Bravo Jeff and Patti! What a wonderful read and gorgeous photos as always. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us! -
Stumbled across this today and so excited! I thought it must be time for you and Patti to be sailing again. Safe trip home and looking forward to the review! 2 new ships must have been fun exploring!
-
I got here a bit late but you are still on the first half of your B2B so I’m catching up! Lots of yummy food so far I see! Glad I am joining you and you tested negative before the second leg. We did Canada New England in August on Princess and got Covid when we got home 😢. Our first cruise back since 2019. I don’t know how so many others escape it. So I think virtually cruising with you two is my limit for a while!

Except the staff don’t always wear the mask properly. On our recent Caribbean Princess cruise, we saw lots of staff wearing their masks on their chins. Our room steward nearly always had his mask on his chin. He was very friendly and chatty, and we had a number of conversations with him. We did notice throughout the 10 days, quite a few cabins in our hallway were vacated. We returned home and then came down with symptoms, tested positive with Covid. I wondered whether all those empty cabins’ passengers, who were moved to the quarantine deck, (and us) caught it from our room steward, who may have been asymptomatic. Staff seemed very relaxed with their masking.

Thanks, interesting to know that about motion.
