Hmmmmmmm...........

 

 

It looks very tempting!

 

I'll send you a postcard.

 

aloha! :-)

Vic,

 

Do you realize that the Z (The Zaandam ... NOT the Zuiderdam -- the Zuiderdam is the Zui, not the Z) will be in San Digeo on Sept 30th, the day that the Statendam departs for Hawaii?? :) If you go on that Hawaii cruise we could always say "hi" before you board the Statendam! :D

We also got that e-mail.

Wish we could take that cruise.

We are already booked for the Statendam for 21 days when she returns from that Hawaiian run.

:)

My wife, parents and in-laws (all Mariners) have already booked and paid for this cruise in Cat. B mini-suites. I see the terms say new bookings only. The trip must not be sold out. I'll call my TA and ask her to check into a credit back anyway. No harm in asking. Thanks sail7seas.

[LoveLifeAtSea]

I have ALWAYS wanted to take this cruise! I wish I could pull it off! And, what a great birthday present to myself!!!

 

I love the number of days at sea and visiting Hawaii this way.

 

Thanks for sharing, Sail. :)

Too bad the fair is restricted to only a few states, not including mine. Just for curiosity I checked Orbitz for prices for non-Mariners for that cruise. It's the same as mentioned above.

ron.......

 

 

Do I understand you correctly that anyone from any state, Mariner or not, can book that cruise at the rates quoted in HAL's e-mail?

[ron46936]

No. The rate is state specific. I first put in the ZIP where I live and got a much higher rate. After re-reading I put in a ZIP from Michigan which is one of the states mentioned and they came back with the rate mentioned in the e-mail. I didn't put in any past cruiser information.

 

Also anyone who has cruised any of the Carnival Group of cruise lines qualifies as a past cruiser on all lines in the group.
