MisterBill99 Posted June 26, 2018 #76 Share Posted June 26, 2018 To the people wanting them to be thrown off the ship:They have to make money somehow..#wuuut So I am back from my cruise. As others told you, you need to stop taking this so seriously. Would you have preferred it if I asked when they were being evicted? And HAL made the decision to stop using ParkWest so I don't see why you would suggest that my asking them would make any difference? They're leaving whether I ask or not. In any event, I asked when they were leaving the ship and I was told August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimp56 Posted June 26, 2018 #77 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Is ArtLink the replacement ?http://artlink.com/ http://galleries.artlink.com/ http://galleries.artlink.com/onboard/ Yup http://artlink.com/projects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimp56 Posted June 26, 2018 #78 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Looks like they decorate with art. If Seattle removes the wonderful art from the pre-Pinnacle ships, that may well be the sign that it's time for us to find another cruise line. In the 6 years we have sailed on HAL we have had wonderful experiences, made new friends and enjoyed the art and the Dutch-ness of the ships. I'm sure they could make a lot of money selling the wonderful items on the R & S ships in particular. BTW the way, the comment that ArtLink will be on all ships by the end of 2018 EXCEPT Prinsendam, is another piece of evidence that P-dam is going bye-bye.

Why do you think the two are related? The only place I've ever see PW art is in their "gallery" and where the auction is being held. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that they will, although, as I read it, they will start with a more general program and add art for sale after a while. Read under "projects" on their website. Basically the company installs art in hotels, resorts, and now ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabcruiser Posted June 29, 2018 #81 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Who buys that stuff? Wouldn't allow any of it in my home. Free champagne not worth it to me to have to look at that art(?) for even 10 minutes. Jane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaBands Posted July 1, 2018 #82 Share Posted July 1, 2018 The art they offered was as real as the champagne they gave away. Happy to see them go and hope they aren't replaced by another scam company. We have a friend who bought 30 grand of junk from them and she got 2 free cruises as a bonus hoping she'd drop more cash on them. Buy from local artists and you have a chance to see something that might appreciate in value or reflect where you went on your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
