LAFFNVEGAS

The mystery continues lol unknown why some say it and why some do not. And the big question why did they ever put that blurb on there to begin with??? 😂

I agree the compensations is very good and I probably would not have expected anything other than a glass of champagne but the OP mentioned they came from Europe and most likely will not travel back (assuming meaning North America) Unfortunately many are saying that he could pay for another cruise with the 10% but those Trans pacific sailings depending on the category he booked was actually quite low in price. That cruise cost for 2 weeks was probably far less than an Alaska Cruise in the same category so 10% credit probably is not very high.It is sad that while they came this far they did not go ahead and also add on an Alaska cruise but since the last week of this Trans pacific was basically an Alaska cruise they probably thought they were hitting two birds with one stone. This kind of stuff happens and one need to expect that it can happen. I actually give credit to HAL for stating the truth in what happened and offering any compensation..

You definitely need to call them, you should have had within 5 minutes. I know of 2 people this has happened to in the past. One was they spelled their email address wrong, two letters were transposed. The other was they had tight security on the gmail account and they ended up having a hard time getting the cards sent to them. Not sure if anyone is going to be able to assist you on a Sunday but definitely try calling.

BON VOYAGE!!! Hope You Enjoy your Cruise!!

BON VOYAGE!!! Enjoy your cruise!!

Terry I agree they definitely were not on the tags for Koningsdam last November. Now I am wondering if it is just certain embarkation/disembarkation ports.

Go to the bottom of the rewards page and click on See More Rewards, HAL and Princess are at the bottom of the second page, they are kind of hidden.

Have you added post cruise transfers in that time period? Just trying to narrow this down lol

That is the stuff I absolutely hate and was what they gave out on the Nieuw Statendam, hopefully they have gotten rid of that stuff fleet wide.

That is too bad about Wycliff giving you a headache, I have problems with some wines and occasionally with sparkling wines although not as often. My tongue starts to tingle, then the inside of my mouth does if I do not stop, then my tongue starts to swell up. It's been a while since I let that happen. I can usually tell within 3 sips if I am going to have a problem. Wycliff has been one of those rare finds for me that does not bother me at all. We actually discovered it over 20 years ago and had it shipped to us and would often bring it on board the ships back in the day the HAL did not have a limit on bottles of wine.

No, pretty sure not because I do not have Club Orange for my August cruise and neither does a friend traveling with us but she also has that on hers. I am wondering if by chance it is because we have Post Transfers by HAL?? I know that on my old luggage tag I found it on I did have a post cruise transfer to airport, I also have one this time. My friend who did not have it on her last cruise but she also did not have a post cruise transfer but the the previous cruises she had that this was on the luggage tag she did have a post cruise transfer. Right now that seems to be the common denominator.

We love Wycliff and was so thrilled when they switched over to it we discovered they had it last September on the Westerdam Alaska, then we had it again on the Koningsdam Pacific Coastal, then got to the Nieuw Statendam in December to find they still had that terrible stuff they had for years prior to Wycliff and their bar staff had never heard of Wycliff or so they said.. Looking at the menus for Westerdam, granted they are just arriving from Japan and have not hit Seattle yet but it is showing they are serving in the MDR for Breakfast Domaine Ste Michelle Brut. Unknown if that might have replaced Wycliff, possibly not. Most definitely hoping Wycliff will be the House Sparkling for at least the Alaska Season .

Possibly, but I think most take it off or atleast I always have, mostly due to having them in plastic sleeves that I want to save for the next cruise. It actually is quite funny that after many HAL cruises I just noticed this and thought it totally strange to leave it on for disembarkation, especially when they give us tags to put on our luggage specifically for disembarkation.

Oh my, I just tried it and look what I saw. First time I have seen in weeks 😁

I was thinking it was there previously so went digging into some cruise stuff. I usually throw away luggage tags but found some. Ironically it was the sailing from the Nieuw Amsterdam very first sailing after the shut down 07/24/2021 and sure enough one side of the luggage tag does have for phone and email. LOL I have never filled that out. And sure enough it does state in Bold Letters THIS IS ALSO YOUR DISEMBARKATION TAG. PLEASE KEEP ATTACHED I have never once kept the luggage tags on for Disembarkation nor do you need to. So basically Never Mind 😂 I guess I was being blonde again
