  1. Cruising on the 80days with Holland America Jan 04 2019 and would love to bring my

    own Clamato mix with me when having a vodka drink. Please let me know

    if this is allowed due to the restrictions on liquor,which this is not. Being on

    a 80 day cruise and the amount of monies paid for the trip I think it should be allowed.

    I did forget to mention I am allergic to Tomatoes.

    Regards ,thanks for your understanding.

  2. Sorry about the lack of info,new at this thread business. We are travelling on Holland America," Prisendam "80 days to South America and Antartica. I figured with the price you pay for the trip, and I am not complaining,that I would be allowed a few bottles of Clamato. Inquired to Holland America and they did not get back to me.. On our last trip 36 days to Australia on the Princess they did let my wife bring on a few bottles.

     

    Have a great day

  3. Looking for any hints to make our 2019 Jan4th 80 days to South America and Antartica more enjoyable. Let us know how your trip of 68 days jan 3rd 2018 went,to the same area.

    Would appreciate any info,as we have not cruised this area.

    Regards

    Mary

  4. We where on a 36 day cruise and the crew where very glad to take something special

    home to their wife or mother,so I feel it is personal choice,whether it be Money,candy special Tee shirt or something that they can not get in their country. It is the thought that counts.

    Regards

    Mary.

  5. this thread is very informative,when we cruise we always have little gifts for the crew .from the chef to the room service ,they will always take care of you.

    It is so nice to see them happy as they too are far from home. Never thought of a more personal way to give the tips,.will carry thank you notes with us..

    Thank you for all the info.

    LLoyd & Mary Purdy.

  7. Thanks for all the info,so glad you had a great time and that does make up for the other minor issues. We have traveled a bit and we learn every time,so do not feel that you are alone ,we all learn from one trip to the other. We are headed in Jan 4th 2019 for 80 days and we are sure there will be things we will forget to pack,but that is life and we will enjoy every minute hopefully.

    Happy travels

    continue to travel

    Regards

  8. In regards to all your questions,that is how we all learned about cruising.We have only traveled

    36 Days on Princess

    10 days on Princess Coral

    and our planned trip 80 Days on Holland.

    also 16 day River cruise with Ama Waterways. All trips were excellent

    We had fridges in our rooms, except Ama .Gym,s were enough for a good work out.

    Take a few Magnets to hand things on the walls, so you do not tape the walls

    great ones in Home Depot with hooks on them.

    We also took air freshener spray as rooms are small and stuffy at times.

    Enjoy your trip relax and learn for your next trip.

  9. Thanks Hank for your response,we have sailed quite a bit taking our sail boat from the great lakes to the Caribbean.Our longest cruise was from Fort Lauderdale to Australia on the Pacific Princess.We do enjoy each others company and always find things to do.Both in our late 70,s we thought this trip would cover most of our bucket list.Thank you so much for any hints that would make our trip more enjoyable. Happy New Year. Mary.

  10. We are planning to do the Mekong Vietnam,Cambodia river cruise Jan10th2017.

    Would appreciate any info to help make our first river cruise a trip to remember. for instance,what to wear,food,best cabin.time of year and any thing else you could think of.Best regards .
