Changing from Celebrity To Holland America

Because we live with in a 30 minute drive to the port of San Diego for convenience & NO Flying ,we are now sailing HAL exclusively :D

We decided to make the change when we can save hundreds of dollars by not flying nor the inconvenience of flying . :D

HAL has a Hawaii /Polynesia cruise 28 days & what we save in airfares , hotels & extra meals we can now enjoy the more expensive cruises that HAL offers . :D We also like the fact that HAL is using Eurodam for this sailing & the ship won't be over crowded :D:D:D

that sounds awesome! I would cruise so much more if i lived near a cruise port. I keep saying they should bring one to Toronto even though it would be a loonngg sail out to the atlantic. :)

We enjoyed sailing out of San Diego on the 31 day Incan Empires cruise round trip from SD. Not having to pay airfare or sit on a plane for many hours was a plus, though we did have to pay for hotel and car parking. I looked at renting a car, but the cost was about the same, so we drove...worked out well!

We sailed the Eurodam last March, the ship was sold out, never once did we feel crowded. You will enjoy this ship and your cruise. Welcome to Holland America.

I read your similar post on the X board today...boy did you get beat up or what? I agree with you that X has really abandoned the west coast since selling Century and that this market is neglected by X. While on board Millie in Asia in April I talked for quite awhile to the marketing manager on board ....asking why this was the case...and he said they can't make any money on the west coast! I find that hard to believe...since HAL and Princess seem to do just fine! I too don't get it!! And we are sailing on HAL for Xmas on the Oosterdam. She used to be home-ported here and it will be fun to be back on board! Plus our DD just took a job shore side as a Biz Dev Mgr for HAL/Seabourn so we may be on HAL even more now! Enjoy HAL!! LuAnn

Sounds like a wonderful cruise.

Oh to be so close to a port and not have to fly. I'm 90 minutes west of Montreal but I've done the CDA/NE cruises enough times.....
