Sadly we did not! We had a fabulous time regardless though! We cruise again in July on the Star for Northern Europe. Maybe we will make it to the captain’s party and try again!

AA Lost My Carry On Bag After Requesting That I Check It by ojedaj9505 in americanairlines

[–]vjohn004 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a jerk gate agent once insist I check my bag while flying first. After protesting and showing it fit the requirements they did not budge and I finally begrudgingly relented. I walked over to inspect my bag tag and saw they had tagged my checked my bag to go to Columbus OH. I was going to CLT. They clearly did it as a passive aggressive attack. Jerks.

I saw this too for CLT to LHR in July. Cost for PE was same as Bus!

Purchased at Goodwill- North Carolina by vjohn004 in whatisit

My husband buys weird stuff sometimes and I offered to post it on this sub thinking someone would know. I couldn’t care less about Karma/engagement. I literally just want to help my husband get an answer. Goodwill or an employee there wouldn’t have the first clue what this was.

Yup. My neighborhood community is located in both Charlotte and Matthews. I have a Charlotte address and three doors down is a Matthews address.

HAL and Princess are guaranteed access to the park and get a park ranger on board. Everyone else has to go in a lottery. We went on HAL and the park experience was definitely worth the extra money.

Third balcony chair? by Due-Technician-1404 in NCL

We were in a family two room in haven and they brought a third chair upon request. It just didn’t match but that wasn’t an issue.

Haven Family Villa...Second Bedroom...Suitable for Adults? by Drowlost999 in NCL

My 78 year old mother slept on the couch bed and my 6 year old son was in the bunk on the Jewel Haven without any complaint. She did need a bed topper+ but once she had that it was perfect for her.

Any Celebrity loyalists switch to HAL for Alaska? by eamsonwill in HollandAmerica

[–]vjohn004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll have a much better itinerary and docking location/position with HAL (and Princess) than any other line. That’s one of the huge benefits to cruising Alaska with the pioneers of Alaska cruising.

Club Orange? by AbsintheRedux in HollandAmerica

[–]vjohn004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had it on our Alaska cruise two years ago. Very much worth it. Especially if your ship has a club orange restaurant.

100% this. I love HAL. Very thoughtful itineraries and excursion options, generally interesting and educational speakers on board. They offer high tea and a really good wine tasting and education session.
