When will HAL stop calling 'Superior Suites' suites?

 

RCI do the same thing with their Junior Suites.

 

 

With names like

Deluxe Verandah Suite

Superior Verandah Suite

Deluxe Verandah Ocean View Staterooms

 

No wonder new cruisers get confused. To some 'Superior' sounds higher than 'Deluxe'

 

Added to the confusion with the names of their cabins, HAL also cause confusion with the terms

 

Retreat Area (completely different meanings on different ships)

Explorer's Lounge & Explorations Cafe

 

Not to mention

 

As You Wish Dining vs Open Dining

Master Chef's Table vs Master Chef's Dinner

 

And the names of their ships :confused:. The old Nieuw Amsterdam or the new Nieuw Amsterdam or the Amsterdam?

 

Come on HAL - think of some more original names & words

 

HAL, you got some splainin' to do ! ! ;)

 

I've always wondered just what "Superior" suites were superior to :confused:

Add: Oak Room vs Oak Room---the two rooms serve an entirely different purpose on the Noordam and Prinsendam.

And what a surprise to enter one, expecting the same as the other! :eek:

I only know the Oak Room on the Noordam. What is it on the Prinsendam?

It's a small room next to Java/Explorations Cafe, tucked between the Casino and the Internet Center/Library. There's a fireplace (non-working), a couple of easy chairs, and a desk where the port lecturer (also a different role from ship to ship :rolleyes:) can be found.

The biggest difference is that on the Prinsendam, it is not a smoking room. On the Noordam it is a closed off smoking room.
