Sail Date: Aug 2016
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

We had a good cruise until the head office decided to make the captain sailed the ship right into the Hurrican with 90 to 100 miles per hour wind, it was hell for 2 days. The wave was so high, the starboard side suites was flooded with water. The wind blew one of the outside door down, and Holland American still refused to compensate passengers.

If the ship would sail according to the original plan and stop in Halifax, we could avoid the Hurrican totally without spend 2 days in hell at sea right inside the Hurrican.

Any company put profit ahead of passengers' safety, should not be a cruise business. People asked Captain why he sailed us into the hurrican, he said it was an order.
