Well, we just got the call!

[ekerr19]

I am so thrilled - I decided to waitlist for a Suite on our upcoming Volendam voyage and our TA just called. A great Suite just became available and we are taking it!!!

 

We have gone from an E (outside quad) on Main Deck to a beautiful S on the Navigation Deck. I couldn't be more pleased, especially since I was kicking myself for not booking it to begin with.

 

And no, it was not complimentary - we are surely paying for it and it will be well worth it... :D

[jhannah]

How wonderful one became available. Enjoy it to the max!

Question: Does the TP go over or under in this suit? Have fun either way!

[Bill S]

Laura: good for you! We have had similar experiences twice before in getting a Cat S at the last minute-it is a great feeling! You will love the suite!

[jhannah]

Can anyone explain the Suite-Thing to me Pleaseeeeeeeee.!!!!!!!!!

It's the joy of cruising in one of HAL's S category suites. They are huge, and come with amenities not featured in lower category cabins.

Laura, As you know I am so thrilled for you, did you tell DH? I have bets you could not contain the excitement. I have often thought I could try to keep it a secret but since DH is a lurker to this board and I am not one to hold back my excitement it is so very impossible:o

[viennacruiser]

Laura

 

I am sure you are thrilled.:D :D ..my Dh and I are going in our first S and I can hardly wait.

Lisa I tried to keep it a secret from my DH but the thrill of sharing all the info was too much for me, I spilled the beans

:)

[lindleyjulie]

Thanks Vegas Jim, my daughter and I had a peek last year we looked at the suites and then had a look at the PENTHOUSE:D "wow" on The Volendam, I have to win the lottery for that one. Have a great time Laura you lucky thing you.:)

[Aussie Gal]

Laura,

How wonderful for you. You and your DH deserve it. Enjoy. ;) :) ;)

[ekerr19]

Thank you - one and all, for such warm wishes. :) We are happy and feel truly blessed we are able to travel in good health and spend this quality time with our children.

 

It is confirmed, we do have the Suite - and no, I was not able to keep it a secret as I had hoped. Needless to say, the kids are thrilled and DH is happy if I am happy, but he is looking forward to that huge balcony.

 

I guess it's true what they say, once you experience it - it does make it hard to settle for anything less.

 

Thanks again for all your well wishes. :)
