califgary Posted September 7, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Now that Alaska 2010 is over does anyone have any idea when HAL will be able to work the pre-post hotel and transfers for 2011? I called HAL and the person i spoke to just said keep checking.....anyone here have any idea bout when? We are sailing June 24, 2011 on the Amsterdam. Plus I heard you may get some sort of break on the hotel if you have booked a suite anyone have any thoughts or experience on this? thanks for the help!

Nutriosotoo Posted September 7, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2010 My experience has been that pre/post and shore excursions appear on the HAL site about 6 months prior to sailing. ---- Penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old As Dirt Mom Posted September 7, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 7, 2010 The 2010 Alaska season still has a couple more weeks to run:) I'm waiting for HAL to publish next year's Alaska excursions for our cruise the end of May. I'm sure all our questions will be answered in good time. HAL has previously had promotions regarding complimentary hotel packages for passengers in suite categories.

Krazy Kruizers Posted September 7, 2010 #4 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I remember one year that we were able to book shore excursions in Devember for our June Alaskan cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

califgary Posted September 8, 2010 Author #16 Share Posted September 8, 2010 HAL still has the entire Alaska fleet in Alaska. The last 14 day left on Sept 6 so if you dont plan on catching the ship somewhere along the way on this last voyage, id say the 14 day 2010 season is about over...

califgary Posted September 8, 2010 Author #17 Share Posted September 8, 2010 NO WAY! You are SOOOO lucky! You don't by any chance mean 4180, do you? We have 4180 on the Oosterdam for Hawaii 2012 - this is an aft facing cabin with an awesome deck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Zuiderdam has a 7-day starting on Saturday and a longer, repositioning cruise starting on 9/18. We have 4180 on the Oosterdam for Hawaii 2012 - this is an aft facing cabin with an awesome deck! Yes, I've been drooling and counting the days.....

AlanAllyn Posted September 8, 2010 #21 Share Posted September 8, 2010 We did the Amsterdam the same weeks last June and booked a pre- and a post-day through HAL at the Sheraton in downtown. It was very reasonable, around $115 pp for each day, including transfers (both airport and the ship. One of the best parts of it was that on the day we sailed, we gave our bags to the bellman (in our room) and then did not have to handle them again until they arrived at our cabin.

Now all I need is some nice weather to help me enjoy that huge verandah. Is it too greedy to ask for that? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
