callmebetty Posted October 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I can't contain my excitement! DH and I just booked the May 30 Alaska sailing on the Westerdam to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We have never done HAL and are looking forward to our SY on a ship that is new to us. Of course, CC is my favorite thing to do precruise so here I am :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamac56 Posted October 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 12, 2014 We sailed on the westerdam to Alaska and you will love it. We originally booked an SY and a couple weeks before we cruised were offered a Neptune suite for a decent price so we took it. Amazing!!! You will have a blast.

Hope you have a great time and a happy anniversary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freestyling Posted October 13, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 13, 2014 DW and I completed our Alaska cruise on the westerdam in June. A fanstatic ship. We were also booked an SY and was put in a SS category. We hope to due a land/ cruise in 2016. Have a great cruise in May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
take us away Posted October 13, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Congratulations on the upcoming cruise. and anniversary As you have more recently cruised CCL and NCL, you are in for a real treat as HAL has the best service and outstanding staff! What is a Blue Dot supporter?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmebetty Posted October 13, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted October 13, 2014 The service was one thing that drew us to HAL. I am keeping my eye on the prices to maybe upgrade if there is a Neptune Suite available for a reasonable difference. Our past few cruises were in aft suites and watching the wake is on thing that we associate with cruising! I will keep my fingers crossed! Take us away...the blue dot was an NCL thing. So many people would get up at the crack of dawn and "reserve" lounge chairs around the pool with any item under the sun (a shoe, a book, a visor) and then be gone for hours. NCL was supposed to start putting a blue dot on these chairs and remove the items after a certain period of time. Thinking I probably won't run into that problem on an Alaskan cruise lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
