We have not sailed Holland before. Mainly because of their past smoking policy. Very allergic. Recently we decided to book a trans Atlantic. I understand from Holland’s site that smoking is prohibited on balconies. But after reading some reviews I am concerned. Many say that passengers still smoke out on their balconies and even after reporting the problem the crew does nothing. Am I just a bit over concerned??

Usually HAL has smoking at the back of the ship, left side when walking in. Ask Hal to move your cabin and upgrade you since the smoke that you are putting up with is dangerous to your health. Always go to the top with a complaint,,,much more effective.

Just want everyone to know you must have proof of Yellow Fever shot (not really recommended for those over 60 by CDC) or letter from your doctor saying you should not have the shot. I have been told you must show proof before boarding. Required in Guiana (Guyana). Malaria pills are recommended. Lots of DEET bug spray.
