Very informative! Makes me want to travel the famous Panama Canal!! 😍
Love HAL. They just need to do something about their in-house reservation agents who are not well informed.
Well, this is a perfect reason to always call your preferred travel advisor! :)
@@GoTravelTV I am a travel advisor. Their reps are not well trained when I'm making a booking or have questions about a reservation for a client. Very frustrating.
@@RTD3 For sure... Definitely frustrating for the advisor. The positive side is that it means all the more value you bring to your clients.
In Dec 2022, after completing a Land+Cruise package with HAL, we booked a 21 day full transit itinerary (Ft. Lauderdale to Seattle) in April 2024. One of the promised ports was Cortino, however we received notifiction in early October 2023 that the Eurodam will no longer call to Cortino, and we would get an extra day at sea. Wasn't pleased with this news. No real explanation, and no type of compensation offered.
Hi Laurie. We checked with Holland America, and they were able to provide a little more feedback... not a full explanation, but hopefully this can help with a little more clarity. Here was their response: "Due to government restrictions on cruise ships, Eurodam could not call Corinto, Nicaragua on Saturday, April 20, 2024 and and instead spent the day at sea. Additionally, they could no longer call to Santa Barbara, California on Sunday, April 28 (replaced with Avalon, California). Unfortunately, the government of Corinto, Nicaragua can restrict vessels from docking. It is a matter beyond the cruise line's control."
We booked the 12 day Holland America Panama canal sunfarer for March 2024 on a good deal then Holland America have just completely changed the itinerary. Not going to the canal now, rather around the Carribbean. They've offered us an extra $75 on board credit if we still want the new itinerary but a Panama canal cruise that doesn't go to the Panama canal isn't, is it!! Still love the Holland America cruise line, but right now I don't like them very much. I'll probably get over it.
I just went on 15 day from San Diego to Ft. lauderdale on Holland America… They told us the cost of the ship going thru the canal was over 450,000.00 There is a water shortage and they take 51 million gallons for each ship to get thru the canal, and it goes into the ocean. Panama is in a drought right now… im guessing that’s why they’re changing the itinerary.
Indeed, it is the constantly changing mood of the earth and her oceans which makes cruising such an adventure.
Key West has been cancelled January 2024/Rotterdam :(
