I believe the turnarounf time is about one hour. We booked our own tickets a few years ago and had zero issues with the trip and especially enjoyed bypassing the cruise ship crowd.

It's about 500 km from Port au Prince to the island of Jamaica. I'd say the chances of an overflow of the problems in Haiti to Jamaica by boat or air are negligible.

In case you have not heard, there was an unfortunate incident on NS earlier today. Here is a press release from HAL. No word whether upcoming schedule will be effected. THIS IS AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM HOLLAND AMERICA LINE REGARDING THE EVENTS TODAY ON THE NIEUW AMSTERDAM. We regret to share that while calling at Half Moon Cay, The Bahamas, there was an incident in an engineering space on board Nieuw Amsterdam, which sadly resulted in the death of two crew members. The appropriate authorities were notified, and the cause of the incident is currently being investigated. All of us at Holland America Line are deeply saddened by this incident and our thoughts and prayers are with our team members’ families at this difficult time. The safety, security and welfare of all guests and crew are the company’s absolute priority. We are offering counseling services to team members who may have been affected by the incident.

Municipio. The L1 line runs through Municipio to Piazza Garibaldi (the metro stop at Napoli Centrale).

We do the same thing whenever necessary/possible. Don't see many empty seats these days and would never plan on a vacant 'middle' seat in a row of three (or four)

Looks like you're in the market for one of these:

Are you sure about the milkshakes? There is much debate about that on a different thread I keep an eye on.

It is $15 pppd for cruises 13+ days... see attached. @terrydtx I have booked my first HAL cruise for K'dam next February. Have you ever done COmon that ship and what would be your views on investing in the experience? I have a VD category cabin, what might I expect for annupgrade, if available? Club_Orange_Benefits.pdf

Post #35 can officially be declared a total success; let's let the service charge dogs run!

This would be my guess. Of course, we'll never know but need grist for the service charge mill!

OK, I'll bite - so to speak. Where is the prettiest tiramisu?

Really! If my check-in time (or arrival at the check-in area time) is 1130, why am I not already onboard? In fact, I may actually have to sit around for a period of time for no apparent (at least to me) reason.

Don't forget to pack a selection of shorts, t-shirts and sandals for dining and large clips to secure a towel to a pool-side lounger early in the morning before heading off to a leisurely breakfast; skip the handwash station... totally unnecessary.

If you get an esim you don't have to remove your sim card. If you decide to remove your sim, that will certainly preclude any unexpected roaming charges. Leaving your sim at home though is probably not a good idea; you may want to use your phone before you leave Canada and when you get back and you may wish to make phone calls while away if something important/urgent comes up.

Embarkation day only.

I guess you got the answer you wanted.

You can bring on cans of soda; you mneed to carry them onboard yourself.

Yes. Here is, I believe, a trustworthy resource for Barcelona taxis... https://www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com/en/transport/taxi/barcelona-taxis.html

Care to elaborate?

Do you mean while you are on the ship cruising or in the European ports of call?

I don't think HAL cruises to the Galapagos. Celebrity does.
