How Far in Advance Can You Book a Cabana?

[DebK32]

If you want to get one of the cabanas on HMC, how far in advance can you do so? Thanks!

There is no specific time limit.

Call ship services at 1- 800 - 541 - 1576 as soon as you know you want a cabana.

It is not listed on the shore excursion form for HAL's web site.

It is listed on the web site for my ex in Feb 05

Here's my story: I booked the Zudam for 9/05 about 2 weeks ago and HAL told my TA to call back in December to book a cabana for my cruise.

:confused: the cabanas are listed on HAL's shore excursion form for our cruise in December and January. Are you sure they're not listed?

Deb - when is your cruise? Usually you cannot book any shore excursions until 60 days before a cruise.

[Krazy Kruizers]

So far they are not listed for our January cruise - yes - we checked the shore excursion list.

Could it be that for some cruises they are already sold out while for others they are srill availabel?

It is also possible it may depend upon whether your ship will be the only one at HMC for the day or if another is also scheduled. Maybe they have to work which cabanas they will be occupied by pax on ship A and which by Ship B?? Don't know; just thinking it is possible.

s7s is so right - if 2 ships are scheduled for HMC and that is happening a lot now - cabanas will be gone in nothing flat!

BOOK EARL Y if you want one!

I booked the Pink Cabana in July for the Westerdam 12/19/04 Christmas cruise. Ship services did mention I was the first one to book a cabana for this cruise. It's the only ship scheduled on 12/26. Good luck in getting the cabana you want.

I booked a cabana on the ShoreEx site in October for our April '05 cruise - got my confirmation from HAL (as well as the charge to my credit card). Having read so much about the cabanas, I didn't want to miss out!;)
