Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We just received our OBC confirmation. Took only 2 days. We also have B2B cruises with 2 separate booking numbers. I submitted 1 email for both cruises. Response covered each cruise, ie. $100 OBC for 7 day cruise and $250 OBC for 17 day cruise. Hope you hear soon.
  2. Thank you for all your advice. I recently emailed our CCL Shareholder onboard credit request for upcoming Oct cruises. The response states that it may take longer to process request, due to high volume of emails. Hopefully, we'll get confirmation on time.
  3. We need to apply for shareholder OBC for our upcoming 2 cruises in October. This will be our first time applying. Please confirm the correct email address, as I seem to have 2 of them. Is the correct email: CCLshareholderHAL@hollandamericadotcom? Thanks
  4. That's exactly how we booked. Definitely a sweet deal.
  5. We booked the Rotterdam April/24 TA in early June. I was told at time of booking that we got the last 2 spots in CO. So they do sell out and early booking is key.
  6. You can't tell. I made our bookings directly with HAL and they were able to tell me if CO was available. Luckily, it worked for us.
  7. We heard about CO this year and booked 2 cruises with it. In both cases, we paid for a Cat. VH balcony cabin and immediately upgraded to a Cat. V. Saved a bundle. Booking early is important, due to limited number of CO spots.
  8. When I recently wanted to book a cruise with Club Orange for April/24, I was told there was only one spot available. We needed 2 spots. The HAL rep made an exception and allowed us to book with CO. Lesson learned, CO does have a finite number and booking early is key. Cabin upgrade more than made up for the extra cost of CO.
  9. We will be on the HAL Koningsdam in Sept which is scheduled to dock at ORE in Skagway. This sounds like an industrial dock. If anyone is familiar with this dock, will we require a shuttle service? We booked the train excursion with HAL, so assume they will look after transportation to train. If we want to stay in town a bit after excursion, wonder how we get back to the ship on our own..
  10. We booked directly with HAL and paid for CO along with a refundable deposit. I was told if we should cancel cruise before final payment, the entire amount would be refunded.
  11. Does the beverage card also include purchase of specialty coffees and teas or bar drinks only?
  12. While I didn't check cost of this hotel on HAL, in the past, we found hotel prices more expensive when booked through the cruise line. We also have a pre cruise stay at the Pan Pacific but we booked it with points. Usually, I would not book such an expensive hotel, but points helped to reduce the cost and location can't be beat. We plan to take a taxi from the airport to the hotel.
  13. We booked our third HAL cruise directly with them. Didn't know anything about CO, but after the reps explanation, I decided to purchase this option. It worked in our favour and we were able to move from a VH Cat to V (which is the cabin we wanted). Cost of CO was included in the total price, but had to be paid, at time of deposit, which was fine. This saved us approx $800 CDN for a 17 day cruise.
