LilacCruiser Posted August 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hello HAL Experts, We are booked on the Westerdam to Alaska next summer. I'm just curious as to whether or not there is a way to track which cabins are being sold/still available on the ship for the cruise? I've looked on the HAL website but haven't been able to see if there is a away to do this. Thanks for any feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essiesmom Posted August 27, 2013 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2013 There are other online travel sites that will show you many more available cabins. Just check a few that advertise on this site. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobCruise Posted August 27, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I use one of the mass online sites (garden decorations). When you select the cabin category you're interested in, all the available cabins in that category will flash on the deck plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted August 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Which garden decorations are we talking about? Pink flamingoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vict0riann Posted August 27, 2013 #13 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Wow, I just looked up our cruise, and it says it is no longer available on their website - I wonder what that means? I think maybe I will check with HAL - we've had some weird changes already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had me at "garden decorations" :) (Especially since I just re-watched one of my favorite movies, Amelie, Sunday night :)) I'll go check it out! Thanks much!

catl331 Posted August 28, 2013 #15 Share Posted August 28, 2013 When you select the cabin category you're interested in, all the available cabins in that category will flash on the deck plan.Is there ever more than six in a category? If not, you are most likely not seeing "all" available, just the same ones you would see on the HAL site with a "test" booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catl331 Posted August 28, 2013 #16 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I should have said more than six non-HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublebzz Posted August 28, 2013 #17 Share Posted August 28, 2013 OK, I'll confess. I'm totally mystified by all the codes and abbreviations in this post. Is there any public web site that shows all available cabins? I've never been able to find one that lists more than 6 in each category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobCruise Posted August 28, 2013 #18 Share Posted August 28, 2013 OK, I'll confess. I'm totally mystified by all the codes and abbreviations in this post. Is there any public web site that shows all available cabins? I've never been able to find one that lists more than 6 in each category. The site I mentioned shows 15 cabins per sub-category. If you add up each subcategory. it can show you a lot of cabins. Maybe not ALL available, but why does anyone need to see ALL available?

nowornever Posted August 29, 2013 #20 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I thought you could just pretend you are booking the cruise, select the category (Inside, Verandah, Suite, etc.) you "want" & they list the available ones & give you a link to the deck. You don't even have to sign in. I just did it for a cruise I thought looked interesting. I must be missing something...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The limit is six cabins offered, or fewer if there aren't that many. If there are more cabins available, you have the option of asking for individual cabins one at a time.

The only thing is they only show 6 cabins max - so if there are 50 you don't see them all. You can plug each stateroom in individually if you are so inclined and see what ones are available (especially if there is one you like). ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
