I'm with Dean Martin:

With the credit I can drink a few nice bottles.

HL needs to upgrade their advertising. I have read about this credit on CC however there is no talk of it on their web site. My TA called to tell me there is a 2 for 1 offer on the December trip I am on. Their site says there is a special offer for this trip but it doesn't reflect it in the pricing or talk about it. I really think we will have a great trip but this is really a hard line to deal with. I will let you know if it's worth it.

there is no supplement for singles on that trip ...

also a multi stop to or ex the US : always more expensive as a round trip ...

ms europa is also doing a caribbean spring 2015 ex miami to New York

but no single port between last in caribbean and NYC

For some reason this website is not allowing me to post a link, but the announcement of the Beverage Credit is on Hapag-Lloyd's website.

It is dated 28 July 2014, and is under 'Press Releases'.

Thanks, I found it. It doesn't apply to my as I already have the trip booked. I guess part of the problem for me is I get emails from them but they are always in German!!!

I have received both e-mails, and a letter in perfect English- the latter even quoted Thomas Carlyle.

If not already done, why not send an e-mail requesting that future correspondence be in English.

The e-mail address is:

Kundendialog@hlkf.de

The automated acknowledgement of receipt of an e-mail will be in German.

I have done as you suggested, will see what will happen. Thanks

Seems like I will have the aft corner room on deck 6. It has a large veranda that wraps around the side

Is that offer just for the US market?

Hapag-Lloyd's website does not show such an offer.

According to their website, the special offer is still no single supplement for category 1-2 staterooms.

I do not know and I have not seen it on their site as I have tried to find it however my TA called me about it and I took advantage of it so it is real. Guess you have to call. That is why I say their PR is a little off.
