DH and I have been checking - one of our previous cruises (on another cruise line) had a huge group of square dancers. They all seemed to know each other so it was quite loud at times and places like the pool and some bars were so crowded you couldn't get a seat or a drink. They were nice people but it's just that there were hundreds of them :D

 

- thanks for all your hard work.

Do you think there will be lots of people in this group? They could take over all the restaurants, and other events happening onboard? I guess it depends how many there are.:eek:

 

You can always contact the group directly and ask how many are they expecting to have onboard.

That's a lot of anesthesiology CME!

just came back from Eurodam Viking passage cruise - so will catch up within the next week and post some updates...

 

Thanks to all of the above posters and others who help make the job easier by advising me of groups/charters...

Appreciate the info. We are booked on the Veendam, where we see Jazzdagen Tours has a group. We don't like jazz, and are wondering if HAL will still include their regular entertainment? Jazzdagen website mentions 7 hours daily of jazz. Or is that just for their group? We're thinking of changing to a different date. Thanks.

I was told last weekRotterdam has an extensive dry dock in late 2015 in Singapore.
