Old As Dirt Mom Posted March 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I'm still getting the "old" website when I visit HAL online, so don't know what's going on? I know this issue was discussed in another forum thread here today, linked below: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2615003&highlight=new+website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely not seeing the old website anymore. The new one reminds me of the awful ones that other cruise lines use..... :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsSoCalCruiser Posted March 27, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Mine changed too. I'm trying to search for cruises and a little circle just spins. This is the same reason I've only cruised with Celebrity twice. Their website never worked. When looking for cruises becomes a chore I look at other lines. I hope they fix this because this is horrible :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSR Posted March 27, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I had the same problem with the spinning wheel on the new site, trying to search cruises. I read a tip on another thread here to delete your holland america cookie, and don't use a bookmark to get to the HAL site, just type it in the search window, and it worked! I got the old, usable site. Yay for now!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted March 27, 2018 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Okay -- I am working on my old computer since my new one is visiting the Geek Squad for a few days. I used IE 7 and typed in HAL -- I can look up any cruise -- still the old style -- no problems. Then I went to Chrome -- used my bookmark for HAL -- still the old style -- no problems. Didn't have to clean up any cookies and everything worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwb101 Posted March 27, 2018 #8 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I think you'll continue getting the old site as long as you don't delete your cookies. I use Firefox, and foolishly got rid of all my HAL cookies after reading this thread, and now I get the new site :( The new site is too showy and Java-dependent, which means you have to use the mouse for many things you used to be able use the keyboard. Progress is not necessarily an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShipWalker Posted March 27, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 27, 2018 My HAL site is down this morning. Guess I have always been viewing the old site. "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I cannot do that." :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisyloo Posted March 27, 2018 #11 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I can't get in to the HAL site this morning. I'm just getting the little spinning wheel of death! Up until this point I have been seeing the old HAL site with no changes, no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Eyes Are Sailing Posted March 27, 2018 #12 Share Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) Well, went to Chrome, the little circle just spins when I pulled the site up from a bookmark. Nothing. Sent feedback that the site stunk, or was not working. Closed that out, went to IE, it opened fine with the "old website".... but not from a bookmark. Went back to Chrome, deleted my bookmark, just googled Holland America, and the new website came up fine. Set a new bookmark. Seems to work now. But I am like some others, I don't care for the new version. All the cruise lines have these screwy websites now, it drives a person nutty. Does anyone who designs these websites for these travel companies ever use them? I just wonder......... However, I noticed the new website has something at the end that is new in the web address on Chrome: www.hollandamerica.com/en_US.html However, I still am getting the old site on IE...and when I plug in the new address above, it takes me to the old website. Weird. Maybe some computer expert out there can explain all that. I just don't know! Edited March 27, 2018 by Irish Eyes Are Sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summer slope Posted March 27, 2018 #14 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Totally dislike the new site. Can't get all the information about a cruise on one page. Can't get the intinerary on one list. Can't get the room rates across like before. Horrible to navigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ger_77 Posted March 27, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Can't find where all my past info is, ie. cruise days, etc. I hate change. I went on my usual Firefox and got the old site without issues, then I tried on Chrome (which I don't use often). I got the new site, and also could not find cruise days, etc. There is an "Already Booked" tab that has Mariner Society, but it just explains the different levels, it doesn't take you to a page with your own information on it. While I'm not averse to change, I much prefer the old site, as it contained more pertinent information for me. Smooth Sailing! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greysandy Posted March 27, 2018 #18 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I'm not a fan, but am hoping that programmers are working on cleaning up the new site. It is not convenient to find a cruise since there is no date filter and viewing possible Shore Excursions is a pain in the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger_77 Posted March 28, 2018 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2018 If you are logged in, www.hollandamerica.com/myAccount shows some of your personal info, but not your cruise history. I know, I'm hoping they'll be adding that to the site; it would be a pain having to call the Mariner Department every time you'd like to refer back to a sailing or to check the number of days you have. Smooth Sailing! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandThyme Posted March 28, 2018 #20 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I hope HAL is reading this thread, because the new site is atrocious. I can't even find the itinerary on my already-booked cruise. I use Chrome, no bookmark, just typed HAL into Google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Eyes Are Sailing Posted March 28, 2018 #21 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Got on the new website this am and it didn't seem to have any issues today....maybe they worked on things overnite?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've saved a copy of the way it is now in case it never comes back. We're just barely into 4*, and it's very unlikely we'll ever make 5*, so the Mariner credits are pretty meaningless from now on anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadarocks Posted March 28, 2018 Author #24 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I received this response from HAL today about my question regarding how to access past cruise information on the new website: Thank you for your recent correspondence with Holland America Line regarding your cruise history. We are pleased to send you your cruise history records. You will find them attached. Unfortunately our website currently does not have the ability to display this information so at this time but we are more than happy to send it t you anytime you need it. Holland America Line hopes reviewing your history will bring back fond memories. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance or visit us online at www.hollandamerica.com. We thank you for your continued patronage! Kind Regards, Gregory Mariner Society Holland America Line 800-547-9139 Hopefully this will change soon. I can't imagine HAL wants a continual barrage of emails requesting updates. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegiraffe Posted March 28, 2018 #25 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I am bemused at why HAL finds it so difficult to have this info on its website. I showed this to my brother who is an IT manager, and he was bemused. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
