jjb415 Posted September 22, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2008 For all of the recent cruisers out there, I am wondering if the New York Times Cruise version is still available on Holland America. Celebrity offered a different 'newspaper' recently & Royal Caribbean has done the same. I like the crossword puzzle & was last aboard HAL in January of this year when the NY Times was available. I expect that is with the Explorations Cafe tie-in, but just would like to be sure. Thanks in advance !! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boytjie Posted September 22, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2008 According to HAL, the Explorations Cafe is 'powered' by the NY Times. You can read the online NY Times free via the Internet. They also print a mini NY Times edition wich include the crossword puzzle, IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomc Posted September 22, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2008 You can read the online NY Times free via the Internet. Something free at the onboard internet? =thump= (Sound of fainting tomc hitting the floor.) Ok, so I know this. But the thought of "free" and "onboard internet" does seem like a contradiction in terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted September 22, 2008 #6 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Something free at the onboard internet? =thump= (Sound of fainting tomc hitting the floor.) Get up off the floor! How disgracefull... people will think you don't know how to keep your balance on a moving deck, or even worse, can't hold the free champagne at the art auction. Ok, so I know this. But the thought of "free" and "onboard internet" does seem like a contradiction in terms. And you can even read it for free on your laptop with a wifi connection while sitting on your balcony moking Cuban cigars and sipping the margaritas you made with smuggled tequila and the blender you bought at Wal-Mart. The ice you got from the steward by tipping him $20 at the begining of your ruise. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
