mleng Posted January 17 #1 Share Posted January 17 We were on Nieuw Amsterdam last week. Our cabin was 4079. A few doors down, there were 3 cabins named UP001, UP002... They don't show up on the deck plan, but they look like regular cabins. They even have the normal mailboxes by the door and once I saw the daily program in the mailbox. I was on Eurodam last year and I remembered they had cabins like that too. Anybody know what they are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moriah Posted January 17 #3 Share Posted January 17 Those are crew cabins. Performers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petronillus Posted January 17 #4 Share Posted January 17 I am so disappointed that they aren't reserved for the Yoopers of Northern Michigan. (UP = upper peninsula.) 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was raised in the lower SW corner of the Mitten, I have visited the UP several times - nice area. Had some 2nd cousins who were Yoopers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapitch Posted January 18 #6 Share Posted January 18 Those that live in the Upper Peninsula are known as Yoopers, but those of us that live below the bridge (Mackinac) are known as Trolls. 😀 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure there are two assigned to each room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still car ferries in those days. lol Edited January 18 by Happily@Sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the old days, when HAL used to have the Lincoln Center Stage, in a Q&A session the LCS musicians said that per the contract between HAL and Lincoln Center it was specified that each musician gets his/her own solo cabin. At that time the cellist and the pianist were married to each other, and as a result the cello got a cabin all to itself. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it will be a UP cabin (ocean view) They can also bring along a family member or friend for port fees only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
