lazey1 Posted November 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I believe it is offered every Christmas. I pre-ordered the Christmas Tree for my Christmas cruise in 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junelovestocruise Posted November 15, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Do you get to keep it? My sister and I are driving to the port so would be able to take it home if that's an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanmom Posted November 15, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Yes it has been offered in the past and yes you can take it home. We had the large one a few years ago and then brought it home with us in our carryon. It is very lovely, prelit, and came with red and gold decorations. It certainly added a festive touch to our stateroom and now serves as a wonderful memory of our Prinsendam holiday cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb008 Posted November 18, 2022 #13 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Where do you find the tree option? I'm logged in but don't see it as an option. TIA! EDIT - Found it, trees was under flowers. Edited November 18, 2022 by jb008 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldock Posted November 25, 2022 #14 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Does anyone know if your allowed to bring a small Christmas tree onboard? I have a home in Florida, and a couple small trees, so was debating bringing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John can give a definitive answer for HAL, but from my experience, each tree brought onboard by the line has a certificate of fire proofing (fire retardant spray), so unless you can do this, I would say no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb008 Posted December 12, 2022 #16 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I bought a cheapo little 2-foot tree on Amazon.com for $13.81 with delivery. I'll try to remember to post back how it goes. I figured if they confiscate it, I won't be too sad. And DW already thought it was an adorable idea, so I already get partial credit just for the attempt. 🙂 Packing it back home after it comes out of the box will be the biggest challenge IMHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it, decorations and a Christmas wine glass in a carry on that have cruised as far as New Zealand and Antarctica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldock Posted December 13, 2022 #19 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Thx for responding, I decided to do some wall decorating instead, light wreath etc, with some strong magnet hooks. Im also bringing Nicely wrapped gifts that double as decor. 🤪. Figured I wouldn’t have much room left for the small tree. With a hurricane damaged home in Florida, I’m really looking forward to spending Christmas on the ship. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in AZ Posted December 14, 2022 #20 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I purchased a Christmas Tree once onboard and loved it!! That was on the Rotterdam last December. I packed it as best I could but it broke apart. But my DH fixed it and it is now standing tall on my windowsill. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb008 Posted December 29, 2022 #23 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I heard no complaints about the little tree (~24 inches tall) that I packed in my luggage and set up in our stateroom. Came to less than $14 on Amazon w/delivery but batteries were not included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
