You must be confusing the R-class Rotterdam with an S-class which has an A deck. On the Rotterdam two decks down from the "walkway" is the Dolphin deck. I don't believe the stern Dolphin deck area is accessible by passengers, and there are no stairs down from the Main deck.
Might be I get deck names confused
-
yes 2 decks below the walkway Small unused area with about 5 loungers. Not sure if I got to it from A deck or the main and then going down the stairs.
-
there is also open loungers aft on the walkway and on A deck I was outside aft A lot.

There is an extra fee the cost of the wine I think it was $ 8.50. The first time I went on the prinsendam The wine steward talked about the wine and the bite of appetizer giving background. last week on the Veendamn we were just giving our choice of red or white and told the name of the bottle no education still not sure what the appetizer was. So in my opinion if you get a class with the wine well worth it.

New Holland America Line Gift Cards Make It Easy To Give The Gift Of Cruising For Mother’s Day, Father’s Day And Graduations
Digital and printed cards help gift-givers year-round; now available through select retailers
Seattle, Wash., May 7, 2019 — Looking to make Mother’s Day, Father’s Day or graduation extra special? With the new Holland America Line Gift Cards, it’s now easy and convenient to give the gift of a cruise and other memorable experiences on board. In addition to new cruise bookings, gift cards can also be applied to an existing cruise booking.
But the idea of an Amex card for any cruise line is wonderful. I have to drop hints to my co-workers for when I retire..

Do we know what port HAL is going to now that Cuba is out? It would be nice to go to some different ports like Grenadines, Grenada, or St Barts.

One of the rumors I heard while on the P-dam was that Viking might sell one of their unbuilt ships to Holland America. Viking has contracted for more ships and might be wiling to let one go. Might be wishful thinking but they are the right size.

If you want to spend some time in Rome you could take the train from the port to Rome about 7 euros check your luggage in luggage hold spend the day then that the express train to the Rome airport 15 euros.. You will need to be able to handle your own luggage. I did this in reverse last year spending the night in Rome not too hard and I speak no Italian.

Thank you every one I Will look into booking the princess when the Prinsdendam leaves the fleet.
-
Thankyou for all the information. I will have to keep the shallow draft in mind if I do a trans Atlantic . I can deal with old and layer of paint but not so much old and non working plumbing. I will miss the Prisendam I hope HAL see the light and replaces her with something in that size
-
I took my first cruise on the Prisendam this fall and loved it; I have decided that I am a small ship cruiser.
Looking for other ships this size I found that Princess Pacific is close and has some nice itineraries. Has anyone sailed on this ship and can say what you like or not? I will most likely be traveling solo if this makes a difference.
-
Thanks I thought I remember the receipt from the bar but maybe not. I will pack 1's
-
I will most likely have excess non refundable OBC on my upcoming cruise.
Does room service come with a receipt like the bar, so the tip can be added there or do I need a stack on 1$ bills?
-
Thanks was not sure if the stock credit can be used for tips or not The goal is to spend it or give to a deserving person
-
I will have some non refundable on board credit with having pre paid Gratuities I might not spend it all, Is there a way to up my tips with that money as oppose to a 'gift" to carnival Corp?
-
What i have done in the past is go to Happy Hour buy one get one 2$ then carry both glasses with me to dinner
-
Good walking shoes and warmer clothes I ended up with a souvenir
Hoodie.

I think an lesson here is if you have the skill for minor repairs Teach your children grand kids spouse or anyone else It is an small thing to learn but it is important duct tape is not appropriate for everything
-
My folks now a days did not learn this skill At my office in a how to train class I taught how to sew on a button and hem a pair of pants many of the younger set had never seen it done.
