    B2B -- Cabin Problem

    IF you were considering booking B2B (back-to-back) cruises (same ship) and could NOT get the same cabin for both sailing, would you book it?

    Yes I would!

    Your cabin steward or butler will coordinate with your new cabin steward or butler and they will helpl you move to your new cabin.

    I would too, worth the inconvenience to be on a back to back!!
    Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

    Maybe vote over here...

    I wanted to vote yes, but it would also need to be worth it.. Thing about re-packing then un-packing...

    Here is what I would need to do it with no doubt...

    1) Proof that they will give me at least until 9AM to sleep... I know they need to clean so I am trying to "meet-half-way"
    2) My girlfriend understand, be okay with it also and understand I might be crashing right after the move.
    3) If I sailed out of Florida or something, so, we can maybe wake up early anyway get off the ship and get lunch out and about...
    4) Do I REALLY want to check out the other destinations, or am I just trying to make my vacation longer?

    So, nothing crazy, but I would need to want to do both cruises. My girl and I settle in the first and second night.

    Maybe I should have just said yes ...

    I am guessing that we would only consider a B2B if we liked both itineraries, so I think we would put up with the inconvenience. There are other considerations about that in-between day that I would want to check on. I would want priority for getting our Room Pass for the second cruise - would NOT want to go outside to wait in a long line! But the ship is going where we want to go, changing rooms won't be a deal breaker.

    NO for us! Having the SAME cabin for BOTH sailings is extremely important to us.

    We've never done a b2b on the SAME ship, but have done 2 where we had to change--one of them was disembark in Ft. Lauderdale and drive to Miami for the second leg. The other one was in Ciivitavecchia (Rome) where we had to take a 2 busses to another pier to board our second ship. So definitely YES! We'd feel like there's nothing to it!

    We have done quite a few back-to-back cruises and twice we had to move.

    The cabin stewards are a great help. They will bring a rolling clothes rack for everything in the closets.

    And on HAL, the drawers don't even have to emptied out -- just move them to the other cabin and bring back the empty ones.
