Why doesn't HAL's brochures have deck plans?

Ordered brochures for Caribbean, thinking that I would get the deck plans for Koningsdam included.

Just itineraries and pretty pictures.:rolleyes:

I know they are available on line, but I do like a hard copy so I can see the decks side by side, and line up the elevators and staircases.

You need to get the Atlas -- it has all itineraries and all ship decks.

That is true, but how do you get one? I have the 2014/2015 Cruise Atlas and keep it because it has all those deck plans. We are 5-star Mariners and get mailings from HAL, but have not received a new Atlas. Think I picked up the one we have on the 2014 WC.

You could always just print the plans from an online image

hope this helps

Go to http://www.cruisedeckplans.com and use their 'Drag these decks' feature. You can also assemble your own pdf and print it out, five decks at a time. EM

Not sure if I was supposed to but at end of recent cruise there was a thick brochure of all the cruises and it had deck plans in the back so I threw it in the suitcase. I figure if it was not "hardcover" if was available to take and besides, it was about half obsolete for 2017/2018 seasons. I suspect it may have also been available from the future cruise consultants onboard.

Contact HAL customer service and ask to have one sent to you.

Lots of luck. I've tried to get the cruise atlas from customer service and the mariner society. I was told that they no longer mail them.

Our TA always sends us one.

The ones (cruise atlas) in your cabin are yours for the taking and yes, the future cruise consultant has them inside his/her desk (unless they ran out and are waiting for an updated version) and/or in a nearby open display cabinet
