Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted November 19, 2022 #27 Share Posted November 19, 2022 We've done Christmas cruises in the past, on Princess and Celebrity. Princess had a formal night on Christmas Eve with carol singing and "snow" falling in the Atrium. They did a traditional Christmas dinner on Christmas Day with crackers on the tables. Celebrity also had carol singing on Christmas Eve. They had turkey and Christmas pudfing for lunch and dinner. Crackers on the table at lunch time but not at dinner which seemed a bit weird. Both ships had lovely decorations in the Atriums. Princess also stuck a small decoration on all cabin "mailboxes" - I wonder what they'll do now they don't have those. It will be interesting to see what HAL does. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've done a few HAL cruises, we love both the Music Walk and the abundance of fresh flowers on their ships. Hope Westerdam is the same, will look for your opinion after Christmas 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robncruise Posted November 19, 2022 #29 Share Posted November 19, 2022 have done several Christmas/ New Year cruises . Princess did a nice job on Golden Princess in 2019 - especially for the children - Santa arrived by tender and each child recived quite a generous gift. But by far the best was on HAL Veendam to Antarctica. A magical and memorable experience . The Captain and crew were amazing in creating an shared holiday experience for all on board. Great food, decorations , entertainment and free flowing champagne. It was amazing. And the passengers embraced the holiday spirit by wearing national dress on the formal nights, - kilts, saris. kimonos, black tie It was a real parade of nations - incredible the clothing many passengers carried so far from home. Probably will be different on Westerdam given it is summer . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara Jane Posted December 2, 2022 #30 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Hi Don I have been checking regularly to see if you have posted any more on your cruise report. I hope you are fully recovered by now. It took me a good 2 weeks and hubby still not back to normal at 4 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
