HOLLAND AMERICA LINE

Oosterdam by Dick Stein Alaska Inside Passage May 13, 2006

This was our 7th Holland America Cruise, our 3rd Alaska Cruise with this line, we also have two previous Alaska cruises with each Princess and Celebrity. I got my red pin (50 days) on this cruise. I got a upgrade to an SS suite due to the fact that they were selling suites 30 days out for what I paid for a balcony and both me and my agent complained. This is just a caution to those who might book an early May Alaska cruise. I did my own travel arrangements arriving a day early and stayed at the Hampton Inn airport the day before. Took my bags to the Seattle airport at 10:30 AM, bought a travel voucher at the HAL desk and I was on a bus to the dock within an hour after arrival at the airport. Read more
