Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. FYI-----we've been able to use the drink voucher for other drinks besides the special one (within a certain price cap), so you're not obligated to drink something that doesn't sound like something you'd enjoy.
  2. You can check FCCs/FCDs under "My Profile" on your Holland account on line. There's an expiration date---- the ones I bought 11/22 don't expire until 11/26
  3. I couldn't see this either and was having a LOT of trouble with the website a few hours ago. I Iogged out and tried again and finally could see Prepaid Crew Appreciation at the end of the booking . But it's taken all day.
  4. Have checked several times this morning and when I book an Alaskan cruise for next summer that is labeled "Black Friday", nothing shows up about pre-paid gratuities. Have tried both the Cruise Only and HIA fares. By the way, the price is slightly lower than in the past weeks, but that lower price was visible a few days ago, so no further price change.
  5. AND, a Rexall drug store in the same place.
  6. Yes!!!! Especially since the balcony has the only regular size table that's comfortable to eat on (but we "make-do" with the coffee table for dinner). Unlimited laundry is our favorite---we can pack much less. The concierges are very very helpful, and we don't have to stand in line at Guest Services. They can even assist with some internet/computer issues. Tea or appetizers before dinner is quite nice. If you have a beverage package, you can get soda, water, and some simple alcoholic drinks in the Neptune Lounge and sign for them. The complimentary tea in the Lounge is excellent, as well as the coffee/capuccino/espresso machine. We ask for a large paper cup and get it 'to go'. The snacks in the Lounge apparently are different on different ships, but on the 3 largest ships we have excellent shrimp cocktail at lunch and tasty little sandwiches (the same every day, but still tasty). Enjoy!
  7. The price I see for a Neptune is $12,324 per person, before taxes/port charges and noOBC. Don't think that works for me.
  8. The airport is about 10" from the port and there's always been a line of cabs. We usually don't leave the cabin until 9 and have always been at the airport before 10 (having used luggage direct, so we don't have to deal with suitcases).
  9. I just canceled a cruise two days ago and the FCD was returned to my Mariner account as a FCD within 24 hours.
  10. No hot foods until 11 or 11:30 and none after 8 PM
  11. Thanks so much for your experience and insight!
  12. We had such a wonderful cruise and visit to Vancouver this June that we want to do it again next year and see more of the city. Are we nuts to consider a cruise that would involve spending several days in Vancouver over Canada Day? Would you do it?? I found info on this year's activities at Canada Place and it looks like the Pan Pacific is right in the heart of the action. A good thing??? Or crazy chaotic?? We wouldn't plan to be out and about on on the actual day, but didn't know about the days before and after. Since July 1 is on a Monday in 2024, the days before are the weekend, and I know there was more activity on the weekend in that area when we were there. Thanks!
  13. I have been confused about the hours for food, also. If I remember, hot food isn't available until 11 am. It's very popular, but I've been pleasantly surprised a FEW times to find a very short line when I expected it to be busier......and 10 minutes later there were 15 people in line. Things do run out. And even thought it says it's open until 9 pm, that was just for beverages. Food wasn't served after 8 pm.
  14. We used Legacy Limosine Service last month and plan to use them again. They picked us up at the front door of the Pan Pacific Hotel, Canada Place. They were recommended to us and we were very satisfied.
