Rare richwmn Posted May 30, 2009 #251 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I don't believe RSVP belongs on this list...it is not a "group cruise", as they book the whole ship for their trips. I generally include charters, when I know about them, on the list as it shows why cruises during that time period are not available. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burny Posted June 1, 2009 #253 Share Posted June 1, 2009 hello,anybody know something about a big group on the Rotterdam,08/23/2009?(i don't mean the knitting groupe of the mike owners group,they were on the list already for a couple of moths ). In 1 day,at once the hole ship is sold out, except for the suites and the penthouse! Very strange, so i have the idea that a big group made a reservation. burny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every now and then HAL will take all (or most) of a cruise off the site in order to realign cabins, guarantees and TA blocks. I would bet that within a day or so, quite a bit will be open again.

zimmerjulie Posted June 5, 2009 #255 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Hi Rich, I didn't see the following group on your list: Twilight Cruise There is a group of approximately 1000 fans being booked on the Oosterdam Aug 8, 2010 for a "Twilight" cruise. If you are wondering what Twilight is, it is the first in a series of novels (and movies) with a vampire love story theme. Some of the supporting actors will be aboard and they will have autograph sessions, movie viewings, a charity auction and a costume dance, among other events. I predict a lot of teenagers and teenagers-at-heart will be on this sailing. Whether you'd like to join or like to avoid, I hope this info is helpful.

luvcruisn' Posted July 4, 2009 #263 Share Posted July 4, 2009 (edited) Does anyone have any info re: a group on the Prinsendam Amazon River cruise Nov. 25/09? It's been sold out since April except for the Penthouse, with absolutely no opening up of cabins at all. (I'm on a wait list.) I did a google search and found some travel agencies had booked group space and then sold all of their cabins, but I haven't found anything else.

shootr Posted July 5, 2009 #264 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I am utterly amazed at the information this forum has. Thanks for whomever put it together, the contributors, etc. I have yet to have a question that the answer (and I mean obscure answers) wasn't there for the reading. Thanks again everybody.

Rare Roz Posted July 13, 2009 #268 Share Posted July 13, 2009 There's a local (Nashville) conservative syndicated talk show host by the name of Phil Valentine who's sponsoring a "Friends of Phil" Alaskan cruise this September. The advertising says the ship is "the Holland America" :D, so it could very well be the Westerdam. The advertising also mentions that a "special guest" may make an appearance. I wonder who that could be? ;) Let's see...political conservative, Alaskan itinerary, stop in Juneau which happens to be the state capital. Well, I'll leave it up to you to figure it out, but I have my own hunch. Roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innlady1 Posted July 17, 2009 #273 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Hi Rich, Do you know if there's a "group" on the ms Noordam 2/13/2010 cruise? I tried to book the M & G for our CC Roll Call, and was told there's already a "group" that day in the Crow's Nest. Never had this happen before...so am curious if we're amongt a large group.

skankycat Posted July 22, 2009 #274 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Rich, I just read on the 'West Coast Departures' board of a group of 400 drunk (?) women fighting on a local Seattle tour-boat. They even managed to stop the police from boarding. But it also said the group is going to Alaska from Seattle this summer. Their TA said she'd notified the cruise line of their proclivities. Am I safe on the Zaandam August 7 or will I be getting lots of use out of that balcony? Girls gone wild or not - we're sailing! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankycat Posted July 22, 2009 #275 Share Posted July 22, 2009 This needs a quick edit and I can't find the button - turns out it was about 10 women fighting and 400 planning to go to Alaska. Surely the other 390 are less dangerous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
