    Glad those covid days are behind us. We refused to sail until mask requirements were gone. Not paying thousands of dollars to be uncomfortable. We love HAL and stay in Neptune suite. Sailing on Nieuw Amsterdam is a few months for our 5th trip back to Alaska. Thanks for sharing.

    In 2019 after spending 15 days traveling through the Canadian Rockies and a two day trip from Banff to Vancouver ,we did the 8 day inside passage Alaskan cruise on the Volendam ,jueno skagway , glacier bay and Ketchikan ,it try was a trip to remember ,we booked our entire trip with scenic tours, who arranged absolutely everything , all we had to do was sit back and enjoy , and enjoy we did , the cruise was so relaxing and made so enjoyable by the wonderful crew , we were so impressed that we have booked a Mediterranean cruise with Holland America Line for 2023 , can't wait

    Great video! I am looking around online for reviews of HAL Alaska cruise as I am thinking of bringing my family for a Alaskan cruise in 2022. This video really shows what the ship offers and what a 7-day Alaska cruise looks like!
    The food HAL serves look so delicious. You should've recorded more reaction to the food lol

    Great video, thank you. Following all your best efforts at staying covid free, quite concerning at 16:22 when your steward states he's requred to wear a mask, but he does this with a huge friendly wide open mouth 'hello!'. Beautiful friendly exciting 'hello', great you got to experience the lot without becoming ill. Appreciated your content.

    • @LaineyMelnick
      @LaineyMelnick  Před 2 lety +1

      He did it at a distance only for that moment on camera.

    I loved your. I'm going to Alaska on the Noordam in May 2022, so this was a huge help. Just one this that was very annoying, please stop pointing this camera on yourself all of a sudden, people don't need to see you pose. But again otherwise the video was great!!

    Thank you for sharing your trip with us. Out doors with the wind & your sound system was distracting. I would of liked to see more selfie’s of both you & your friend.

      I keep forgetting to put my wind shield external mike on. Sorry. I try to limit the selfies so it’s more about the trip than about me but thank you. Follow me on FB and Instagram for more selfies than you’d ever want to see! 😂 campsite.bio/855gr8trip

      It wasn’t like that at all but if you’re not a fan of cruising I plan beautiful land vacations also.
