We are 4 sisters, 2 per room .. the rooms with on the promenade deck w/ outside access.. sorry forget the name of them.. There are 2 of us that are really laid back.. like quiet, in bed at 11.. etc. The other 2 are the complete opposite. This was a cruise with just my 1 sister.. and I knew she would like it..Then my other sisters jumped on the bandwagon , and want to go as well. I am just afraid they won't be happy, and would be best suited for Carnival.. When I asked my sister if she would be ok switching ships.. (the one I had sailed w/ before), she said no, she wanted to go with HAL..she has had past experience was with Carnival. and NCL.. and she was not thrilled. Is it ok to make 2 possibly unhappy.. to make us happy? The reason I am not so keen on changing it is that we started the trip first.. And I love HAL. . and I know my sister will as well . We are 49, 46, 50, and 52.. I thank you for any input.

I don't see the problem. You and one sister have decided to take a HAL cruise to Bermuda, believing it to be a good match. Two other sisters have decided to join in.
You are not responsible for their decision.

That said, this may work all around. Remember, the Bermuda cruise has several overnights docked in Bermuda. The sisters who like to paint the town can go ashore and do that very thing.
So long as they are rooming together in the Lanai cabins, and the two quiet sisters are sharing, this may work out well.

I fully agree with Ruth. You chose the cruise and the others asked to join you. Besides which, I think you'll all be happy on Veendam and that itinerary and especially so if you get lucky with terrific weather in Bermuda. You spend three nights there and the party sisters can find plenty of places ashore if they wish more excitement than they find on board.

Have a blast. Hope you all enjoy.
