Sorry to hear you had to cancel, Dot but I’m glad you found a replacement cruise. Yours is the first listing for the Westerdam in June so I have no details.
Could you let me know how many days it is please? Inside Passage?
I’m doing as well as I can, thanks.
Thanks so much. 🙂
It is the June 9 to July 7 28-day Alaska Solstice cruise. Sorry I forgot to put the date. 🤔

Jacqui,
I had to cancel my April cruise from Japan to Seattle due to some medical problems. I am now booked on the June 28-day Alaska cruise on the Westerdam.
Please make those changes. Thank you.
Dot 🤗
BTW, how are you doing?

Hi Kazu,
I'll be on the April 13 to May 12, 2024 30-day Japan & North Pacific Crossing Collector on the Westerdam.
Also on the February 8 to March 7, 2025 Amazon Explorer on the Zaandam.

You can get water in the Lido any time day or night from the beverage area. That is near where you can also get tea or coffee.

I just used the World Cruise address last week and got my OBC request. 🤔

Thank you all for your answers. I will not take it on my cruise. I will try to find something else that will help. I might even try acupuncture while I am on the cruise.🤔

I have been having a problem with a a muscle in my back and use a heating pad to help relieve the pain. Can I take a heating pad on the ship? I don't want to take it if it is not allowed. 🙄

Thanks to all who answered. 🤗

I actually want to bring a shortbread called Lorna Dunne. They are prepackaged (6 to a pack or 4 to a pack) depending where I buy them.

They may need to be declared if they fall under the list of questions you get asked on the form on the plane. However even so I very much doubt that they will confiscated - sealed commercial biscuits etc are fine.
The real danger are things like fruit, dairy, meat, honey, seeds and dirt
Don't forget to get your NZETA before you fly Information about NZeTA: New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority | Immigration New Zealand
Thank you for your response. I already have NZETA approved.

We depart on Nieuw Statendam this coming Saturday for 14 days. Currently in a VB cabin. Our traveling friends just had to cancel due to a last minute health issue. We are wondering if it’s possible to upgrade to CO this late in the game? We like the idea of the separate grill type restaurant for.dinner. Would the price be $15 pp/pd? Thanks!
Yes I believe you can. I did it before my cruise in October on the Rotterdam. But you have to call them to upgrade to another cabin, at least I had to. It was worth the $125 I paid.

I am flying into Auckland to start my Cruise. I want to bring some individual sealed packages of cookies that I will eat only on the ship. Do I have to declare these and are they even allowed to be brought into New Zealand?

@kazuJacqui, glad to hear you are on your way home and to healing that elbow. I'm sure Jose was with you in spirit and watching the surgeon when he operated on your elbow. Rest and get healthy for your next cruise. ❤

Oh my gosh…you don’t need insurance issues when going through this. Do you have a social worker or someone that can help you deal with this at the hospital?

@kazuWhen I was on the Rotterdam in October there was a line up for the walk-in early diners which is on the same floor as Club Orange. I had fixed dining on the 2nd floor of the MDR and had adequate service. When you ate in the MDR where you in fixed or walk-in? I also had Club Orange and enjoyed it for breakfast with one of my friends every morning but didn't eat there for dinner. Did eat in SEL De Mer and enjoyed that meal except for the fact that a couple that we knew joined us and slowed us up from getting our entrees. If we had known they were going to order more than two appetizers we wouldn't have had them join us.

@kazuHappy New Year🎉 Jacqui! Just found your Live Posts and just caught up. Glad you brave enough to travel on your own. I have been doing it for almost 7 years now since Jack passed, but I still travel with Jack the Bear to keep me company. 😎

Marianne,
I have been following your blog for years now but this time I did not get an email for your blog. Is there a reason that I haven't gotten it this time? I got one for your spring cruises in the Caribbean but not for this one.

Does anyone know which cabins are used for the quarantine cabins on deck 4 on the Rotterdam? I am booked in an obstructed view cabin on deck 4 and was wondering if I would be moved to a different cabin before we board because of that.🤔🤔🤔

There is a cruise that starts on May 28, 2023 that does a cruise of the British Isles on the Zuiderdam out of Amsterdam. Check it out on the HAL website.

Why would Carnival announce this change but HAL not announce it?
You do realize that Carnival is also it's own cruise line with it's own ships. Not just a corporation.

We have one scheduled for our TA from the Netherlands. And I have another scheduled for the cruise from New Zealand.

I assume that distilled water for my father in law's CPAP machine would be exempt from counting towards this limit...
I believe you have to let HAL know that you need water for the Cpap machine before you board.

Kathi,
Glad to see you are back to cruising. Hope you can make the Pole to Pole cruise. I'm sure you will get stronger each day, so keep on sailing. 🤗
