Has any one used Luggage Direct to Vancouver, BC Canada. All posts and info I can find is for Luggage Direct from Vancouver to the US. We will be flying from FFL to Vancouver.
If you want to ship your bags to a ship or your home - UPS & FedExp can ship -- Note it is a Int'l shipment.

Ray, Just got off the phone with my HAL PCC and she stated it is for all ports of embarkation. She has worked fr HAL for more than 14 years now as a PCC and so far has never steered me wrong:)

Here is the answer my TA got from Seattle -- Applies only for Alaska cruises per this info.

At this time, we have the free/reduced hotel nights for Alaska cruises on categories PS-BB and PS-SY.
Below is the link to the flyers.

From what I was told, yes. I think it is included in the price of the cruise. I know that we have only had to pay for pre cruise hotels when we booked V category staterooms and full hotel cost for post cruise stays.
I specifically asked her about the cost of hotels since this is the first time that we have booked a specific stateroom in SC and SB categories. That is when she told me the SC gets a discounted pre cruise hotel and the SB gets the pre cruise free. I asked her why SC is not included in the free pre hotel since according to HAL, SA, SB and SC are all Deluxe Verandah Suite Staterooms and she said the SC's while considered the same category are not for hotels.
Hope this makes sense to you... It did to me when she explained it, and now knowing that I only have to pay for my post cruise hotels makes it a lot easier, and cheaper for us:)
FYI though ---- IF you are cruising out of Vancouver, but flying into Seattle, the hotels ARE NOT paid for!!! The discount/Free hootels only apply to the Port city you are departing from. We are flying into Seattle for one of the cruises (SC stateroom category May 2011) and will be taking the HAL bus from Sea/Tac airport to the Vancouver port, so we will be flying in the day before and paying our own hotel. The bus is only available the day of your cruise. They no longer do a hotel and bus transfer package. Cost of the Bus transfer from Sea/Tac Airport to Ship is $130.00 per person R/T.

Question, did you understand that this applys to any cruise Port city you are departing from?? Or does it apply only for cruises to Alaska from the Northwest?
I asked my TA (a good one) and it was news to her.

You can also buy them direct from Trac.
Watch their sales during the holidays they are offering free double your minutes phones. Some times the phone is free. I have one that will take pictures.
I have one which every year I buy one year service card -- 200 + 200 + 100 extra or 500 minutes for $100.
I only use it when we travel, emergency, when I am doing the shopping & find something on sale. Never had a problem in getting service out of town or in USA ports.
