Excellent work @POA1!! I'll do this when I board Zuiderdam on the 11th. ~Nancy -

Questions from a first time Holland America cruiser
oakridger replied to Astromaid's topic in Holland America Line
I found the Dive Inn chicken sandwiches to be good too. I always had the burgers and hot dogs before and just tried the chicken sandwiches on my last cruise. ~Nancy -

Holland America Volendam solo from San Diego to Ft Lauderdale
oakridger replied to kelliebiz's topic in Solo Cruisers
@kelliebiz Can you try to post your bird pictures again please? Something weird happened above!! Have you spoken with @richwmn Rich at the evening trivia yet? I've been following his reports for a couple months now! ~Nancy -
Hmmmm.....Thank you. I'm not planning on using ATN airlines, however. Probably United from SFO and possibly French Bee Premium Economy coming back if the cost works out. Both are daytime flights which is why I'm looking into using different airlines instead of one round trip. We'll see how it plays out!! 🤷♀️ ~Nancy

@jean87510 Thank you so much for all your information! One question, what airline lounge did you go to at PPT? I will be searching for flights in a couple of months and the lounge access you mentioned may be a factor on which airline I use. ~Nancy

Oh dear. 😞

Buying soda before cruise in San Diego
oakridger replied to atxlady's topic in West Coast Departures
HAL carries Coke products, and I haven't seen Dr. Pepper on board. If anyone else has gotten it on board, please let us know! Sorry, @atxlady you may have to go with another drink of choice for this cruise. 🤷♀️ Have a wonderful trip! ~Nancy -
Holland America Volendam solo from San Diego to Ft Lauderdale

I'm with @SparklingPinkDaisy! No table sharing at breakfast for me! It's for the other people's benefit as well as mine......😉 -
It's all about behavior. The dog. The owner.

That's crazy and just not acceptable! No TA that I have ever used has had higher prices and non-refundable deposits!! They always give me at least a bit of OBC, wine, flowers, etc. Are you in the USA? My TA does the work and makes the calls to the cruise lines for me, that's what they get paid a commission for! Good luck in finding a good TA and save yourselves a lot of stress!! ~Nancy

@two-at-sea Welcome to Cruise Critic! The Japan cruises sound wonderful. Have fun! I suggest you join the Roll Call for this cruise. That's where the information about tours should be shared as well as meeting others on your cruise and exchanging information. The Roll Call is here: ~Nancy

Cruising on Holland American ship to visit a plantation
oakridger replied to beshears's topic in Holland America Line
I visited the Sunbury Plantation House in Barbados. Sunbury Plantation House - All You Need to Know BEFORE You Go (2024) (tripadvisor.com) Bridgetown Barbados cruise port. HAL and other lines stop there. ~Nancy -
It's official. Production shows are back!!
oakridger replied to Ken the cruiser's topic in Holland America Line
If people really like the game shows, then I'm glad for them having fun! I don't have to go to any event that doesn't appeal to me. If the entertainment on HAL eventually doesn't offer some of what I enjoy, then I'll just travel elsewhere. For now, I'm happy to see them trying new things and adding more live music options. Next, what I'm hoping for is more quality lectures and enrichment programs! ~Nancy -
The OP's quoted article quotes Christopher Prelog saying that the new owners' suites will be aft wraps. "Each ship has 112 suites, featuring full private verandas and infinity windows, ensuring unparalleled views for every guest onboard. Additionally, two new Owner's Suites with wrap-around balconies have been added to the aft of the ship, perfect for evening cocktails or a private dinner." These sure look like beautiful ships! I'm excited about this news and I haven't even sailed on my first Windstar yet!! 384 days to go!! ~Nancy

oakridger replied to Ken the cruiser's topic in Holland America Line
From reading recent "Live From" posts on Carnival Cruises (and Princess) they are already having these ticketed game shows there. The two lines seem to be getting more similar as time goes on.................. ~Nancy -
Here's a couple pictures so people can decide if the less deep veranda on deck 10 is significant for them. Thanks halfacts.com contributors! NA 10034 Veranda from Halfacts.com Nine floor planks deep. NA cabin 7013 Veranda also from Halfacts.com Thirteen floor planks deep.

What??? No Cherry Garcia? I want my money back!! 😁 Glad you told us about this. I love Cherry Garcia and that's the only reason I have ordered that version of Baked Alaska. Next time I'll be sure to ask about this before ordering. Your reporting has done me a great service! 😉 ~Nancy -
@cccole would a French Press work for you? ~Nancy
