Does anyone have an estimate when HAL's January and February 2006 cruises will be posted? Thanks! :)
Also, anyone know of a good TA in the Portland area?

I am interested in that as well. Typically, what I have experienced in the past, is HAL posts them around January or so. I found the cruises that I am sailing on for 2005 around mid- to end of January 2004. Hope this helps. I'll try to be sure to post here as soon as I see them on their web site. We're looking for a 10-dayer around Feb. school vacation week of 2006, big family cruise.

waiting as well - hoping my wife (teacher) and kids ALL get the Feb break for 06! For 05 my kids do - wife doesn't (different school districts) - wife didn't like the idea me and the kids would cruise without her!!!!! (only kidding)
Have my sights set on a Mexican sailing out of CA

Typically the schedule comes out in phases---Caribbean first. IIRC posters were anxious for the Alaska schedule which seemed to take forever.

I'm keeping my eye out for the '06 schedule on the new Noordam.

Will the Noordam be based in Caribbean?

Think I read somewhere on these boards recently that the ship that was to have been Noordam has been transferred to one of the other lines owned by Carnival. Darn! We were looking forward to celebrating our 20th anniversary on her in 2006.

We were looking forward to celebrating our 20th anniversary on her in 2006.A Vista Class building "slot" was transfered from Holland America to, I believe, P & O to be their new Arcadia. The Noordam will be the 4th and final Holland America Vista Class vessel. The Home Office in Seattle is not releasing any schedule information about the Noordam, as of yet. I know this because I have tried very hard to get information about the vessel's early 2006 sailings.
