HAL Cruises
 
What does everyone think of this line. I have not saled it before and am looking into it. I thought that I would never sail on HAL, but I am inquiring.

Please advise.

I've only been on one other cruise line (Royal Caribbean) and have taken 3 HAL cruises which I have loved. Loved the RCL cruise too.

We usually take the HAL cruises because of their itinerary. The food is good to excellent and we enjoy the activities. The cabins are comfortable and they have helpful and friendly staff.

After 3 HAL cruises, I can't even imagine another line.

Go and enjoy.

I will consider them. they used to be realy nice. I am not sure if they are still great. Wanted to ask others and see what their opinions were.

Thanks!

We have taken four HAL cruises and have always considered them the best value cruise line available. I have heard some say Hal has declined, but we have not experienced that. HAL is especially good for cruises to Alaska and for itineraries of more than one week.

I was very happy on my HAL Alaskan cruise. I thought the service, food and accommodation was great. I like the fact that it has a traditional feel to it.

We love Holland America. They are awesome. Have also cruised with RCCL.

Just took my 4th HAL cruise and I find they are getting better and better. Great ship, crew, service, food, and cabin...especially if you upgrade to a verandah.

I enjoy HAL more than Cunard.

HAL is super. You WILL NOT be sorry if you sail on them.

Love HAL. We sailed with them last July; and we're going to the E. Caribbean on the new Noordam on 4/5.
