Check that you have coverage from your carrier in Alaska, unsure if all are covered. I always get off ship. I may be wrong but I feel more secure not worrying about ship charges.

Any time we asked the stewart placed items in cushioned vanity seat.Top comes off and items placed in seat. Returned last day. Bonus you get the use of fridge for your own items. Not very cold during our past useage.

Great job John, this tread is a lot of fun. I don't this has happened to anyone else but the first ship I cruised on was also my last to cruise. In '96 I cruised on the Regal Empress out of New York to New England including Rhode Island, Marthas Vinyard, and Bar Harbor Maine and I think St Johns Bay. In '07 , I again cruised the Regal Empress although a bit run down from Fort Lauderdale to the Bahamas on a two nighter.Thanks for all your posts. joe seaya

For me when cruising I prefer beef and seafood over pasta and chichen for dinner. We found that both to be tough and rubbery in the Noordam dining room all week long. Wether it was steak, prime rib, lobster or crab legs not good. The lido food was fresh and tasty for breakfast ,lunch, and late nite snacks.Even room service was better than dining room. We were very disappointed with HAL's dinners/dining room, very happy the rest of the day.
