I am new to Holland America and will be travelling on NS in September. From reading previous reviews I thought there were no adult only pools on NW however when I look at the frequently asked questions on the web site is says that you must be over 18 to use the sea view pool. I am interested to know if this is the case and if so, is this rule observed. I usually sail on celebrity and their adults only pool is strictly adults only.

I am new to HAL and wanted to know if travel steamers are allowed. When I looked at website it only mentioned irons

Hi I have a question about their Main dining room. We are cruising on the Nieuw Statendam in September,and it is our first time with Holland America. Are you restricted to one starter and one entree. We usually cruise with celebrity and find that sometimes we don’t like the starter and chose entree as a starter and then an entree as a main. Is this an extra charge on Holland America?

Thankyou for the explanation. Makes sense

I understand the policy but what I am struggling with is the application. Say I bring in 2 bottles of wine on board in my carry on bag. At what point in the check in process is the corkage applied ie at check in or when your carry on goes through security and the wine is identified or at another point? Assume then when I take my wine to MDR nothing is charged because it would have been charged before. I just want to understand the application of this policy and would be interested to hear fromnsomeonecwho has been charged and what the process was

When you did this, did they take your cabin number?

I am also confused as to application of corkage fee. If you carry your bottle of wine on embarkation day in your carry on luggage how would they charge your account. I assume scanning of carry on is done by security,with a long line of passengers behind you. Would they have the ability to take your room number and charge you at that point? If anyone has experienced this I would be interested to know how the process worked.

We have the same issue in Europe.my husbands hint is to remember the driver is always placed in the middle of the road and not near the kerb. Last year in greece he got confused with the roundabout and entered left instead of right

Being a Sydney sider all I can say is what a beautiful port. Head down to opera bar and enjoy a drink. Or take a stroll through the botanical gardens

This is my first time cruising with holland America. Usually sail with celebrity. We are booked on a 28 day cruise however have noticed that segments of the cruise are sold in 14 day cruises.this will mean that passengers will be exiting and entering the cruise whilst we are still on our cruise. What impact will this have on us. I’m thinking entry and exit on those changeover days. Also how is any duty free alcohol that we purchase on the cruise treated. Do we wait until our final day to collect. Also I assume we only need to attend muster once.
