Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Still loving this trip report...minus the Noro...glad it is improving. now....about this lobster and escargot in the Lido...i am hoping this is a Pacific Ocean thing...albeit the lobster is most likely unlike our Maine lobster.....because we will be on the Noordam Pacific crossing next week and would love to see a similar menu in the Lido! Thanks for sharing!
  2. Hmmm..we will be in a similar situation. Next week we board for a 39 day collector. We are 49 points away from 4* . we have pre-purchased possibly enough for the 10 credit buffer...and excursions can be cancelled( which happened 3 times in the Med last fall...which caused this debacle ....but we have a plan just in case...for last minute 7day sailing for this summer because I don't know if we will make it and I am determined to be 4* for our next booking on the Rotterdam . (ps I am grateful to have this dilemma)
  3. Yes, this thought did cross my mind. Like hairdressers in some salons
  4. I was hoping our former agent would reach out but has not, which makes we wonder. I ope she is okay.
  5. We actually have been assigned someone but the responsiveness cant compare. Big shoes to fill.
  6. I am so disappointed. Our trusted, wise travel advisor has disappeared from the agency that we utilize (specializing in cruises). she was the best of the best. Who knows why., could be personal, could be medical issues. In any case, how do you find a good TA ? We are considering booking direct with HAL moving forward but just want the personal touch ...
  7. I hope you still get your Captains Cupcake . I'd protest if you don't !
  8. oh my...are you Scottish?? Last time I heard that expression was when I was in Scotland last year. Very common over there!
  9. If you ever sailed RCCL's Song of America (80's and 90's) , of the RCCL fleet that we have sailed in the past, that ship is the most like HAL in ambiance. We love the laid back , mature atmosphere of HAL.
  10. We have done both ships and Noordam coming up again in a few weeks. I personally prefer the layout of the Zaandam. I dont like the closed in feeling that the Rolling Stone Lounge on the Noordam and Osterdam (same layout) . Zaandam is my favorite (fewer passengers too) but hey, a cruise on any HAL ship works for me. By the way, I have done OV in both ships and did not notice much difference in six=ze of the room.
  11. @Hezu Thank you very much, this is very helpful!
  12. We will be in Helsinki from 6 AM to 5 PM. have you rented a car in Helsinki? If so, how far from the cruise port are the car rental companies? We are thinking about renting a car and going out to the countryside. Thank you
  13. @BermudaBound2014 I love, love, love your writing style. We experienced the chaos in SD last January but in the port's defense, our side by cruise that followed was handled seamlessly. Bon voyage and looking forward to keeping up with your journey.
  14. Agree with this. Our last b2b we did not have to check in to muster again but the TV did lock until we re-ran the video again..
