We took 2 cruises when HAL resumed sailing. Dec. 2021 and Sept. 2022.
We found that our latest cruise was a disappointment.
1. Turn down service is by request only. The room stewards have 31 cabins to take care of. The room was never taken care of when we were away for breakfast. No more chocolates in the evening
2. King crab was not available, even at a surcharge. Strange for an Alaskan cruise
3. Lobster in the MDR gala night was gone
4. No more game birds (quail, pheasants, etc.) in the MDR menu
5. Duck was way overcooked in the Tamirind
6. Entertainment was marginal. The majorities of the daily activities were taken up by advertisement of spa, or shops
We spent the majority of time in our cabin watching movies which we have never done in 12 years of cruising.
