Let's all have a laugh at ourselves and have some FUN

[Copper10-8]

Will I get it back the night before we leave or will Security eat it?

 

Thank you Kazu for starting this fun thread.

 

Security doesn't eat, period, so you can get your pie back at the end of your cruise and eat it too :cool:

[jaspersmycat]

I called my PCC to have the apple pie added to my reservation and he told me I had to rebook at a higher price. Since I felt the additional cost was not worth it I kept my current booking.

 

He also told me this Apple Pie offer is for a limited time and only selected cruises.

I am on Weight Watchers and will not have enough points for any pie. Can I bring my Scentsy apple pie electric candle warmer and an extension cord instead? Thanks for your help.

ps does anyone know if the bread pudding in the Lido is dietetic??

 

OMGoodness...I was thinking the same thing. LOL Thank you so much for this thread. Haven't laughed so much by myself in a long time. I love CC!!

[CJcruzer]

I bet some pax would think that sounds DELICIOUS, but to me it holds no ap-PEEL ;)

 

LOL - but maybe GRANNY SMITH would enjoy the pampering! :D

Can I take my pie to the dining room to eat and if so do I have to pay a fork charge

 

 

Sent from my iPhone using Forums

 

I think they call it a forkage fee!

[CruiseGal60]

LOL, I can actually see it happening. Will the pie be sugar free? How can I be sure? Can I watch the chef make it?

[idiebabe]

I just got off the Westerdam and my entire cruise was ruined! I received a Peach Pie instead of the Apple Pie I was so looking forward to (and was promised by my PCC). I don't like Peach Pie, I really don't like Peach Pie! :mad: Also, they delivered the Pie at a very inconvenient time for me to enjoy it.

 

I definitely think I'm entitled to a free cruise as my whole cruise experience was completely ruined by this and if I don't get it, we will never sail HAL again!

 

(Thanks, Kazu, for this thread! Too funny! :))

[summer slope]

You all GOT pie. I'm in an inside on deck 3 and we only got crust. LOL I love this thread.

[ksqueak]

i can't believe people are making such a big deal over these pies.

 

We come from new england where the apples are far more superior to anything you get on a hal ship. We find them meely and have no flavor

 

it has been years since we have even had a hal apple pie.

 

 

Also anyone who does not believe that apple pie is an allergen, i have posted a link to a study done at the university of vienna in 1967 by the esteemed professor jonathan macintosh which proves apples contain heavy doses of methylethylohell that when mixed with cinnamon and baked at high temperatures produces the chemical grannygala that has been recognized by the cdc as a known allergen

 

 

rolf!

[Relax@Sea]

I DEMAND to know your source for that inflammatory information.:mad: I absolutely cannot cruise without eating pie on the balcony.... I'm switching right now to... um... er... is there a cruiseline left that allows pie on balconies?

That's what happens when you book Guarantee. You should have been prepared to accept the worst possible cabin. Just a few minutes' reading on CC would have told you that. Booking a guarantee and then hoping for an upgrade to the cabin you REALLY want is always a bad idea.

 

;)

[sapper1]

How would it work for the third and fourth persons who sail free in a cabin? Would they get a pie too? If not, it would be unfair for those who paid full fare to have to share their pie. They couldn't very well just eat it in front of the non paying passengers.

 

This whole pie business may backfire and make a lot of people unhappy. Doesn't anybody think these things through?

I know if I see anyone eating apple pie on their balcony I am immediately reporting them to Mrs. Smith and Marie Callender :)

[elycelynne]

Because I'm in a suite and thus get two scoops of ice cream and the rest of my family are in 27 inside cabins why can't they get the 2nd scoop too? I think it is unfair.

 

Sorry, they'll have to purchase the "pie amenities" package if they want a 2nd scoop.

I think someone from CC should copy this thread and send it to the Office of the President. I'm sure they would like to know what the members here feel about the new program. Then maybe we would see some of the changes that are being discussed on future cruises.

I don't know about that - you'll just get their standard "apple pie" letter. And they may send out an order to "apple pie" your beds!

[Lizzie68]

I'm just off the Zuiderdam and have scanned photos of all apple pies, please email me directly for copies and my tips on how and where you can eat them.:cool:

[gatorbill62]

I can guarantee you that pie will not make it by Security; it will show up in their metal detector!

 

What if we don't use a metal pie pan, maybe smugle it inside of a fake banjo in our back pack:cool:

[Lizzie68]

Do they provide them on the tenders? Hot or Cold? With or without ice cream?

[gatorbill62]

Security doesn't eat, period, so you can get your pie back at the end of your cruise and eat it too :cool:

 

Now we know why they are always so angry, HAL doesn't feed them.

[CJcruzer]

I believe I may have a coupon from HAL booklet, entitling me to a "complimentary" "deluxe" slice of apple pie, with rich toppings, WITH the purchase of a 7-day Admiral wine package.....

 

(or maybe it was the with the purchase of a HAL monogrammed bathrobe:rolleyes: ) :eek:

I really, really wish CC had *Like* buttons--I would click on every post! You guys are just hysterical!

[innlady1]

They do. That and water or apple juice to wash it down with.

[zoldpro]

This thread is hilarious but DW and I are booked in Steerage next week on the Rotterdam out of Rotterdam, so we can’t get Apple Pie… Do you think we can still get Bread Pudding in the Lido?

Agree! Now all Apple, Blueberry, Chocolate, Lemon Mer., Coconut Custard pie-Lovers, voted to have you take it to him in person! But, be sure to sneak by Copper & his gang., since security personnel are not fed & they might try to steal the pies..:eek:

 

Once, the Office of the Pres. gets the thread, please ask if they will rethink the cost & give us a bigger break on the core-cage fee..!;)

 

Please also ask the Office of the Pres. another question... If I purchase an Apple IPad will HAL give us the Explore 4 Apple Amenities package free?

 

P.S. Didn't get any pie at our condo ladies luncheon today :(
