[Mega mega mega post.]

*Cruise members have to pay for internet.I kinda see where they’re coming from.The internet is not the greatest on cruise ships and they have to ration bandwidth.They referred to it as nickeling and diming just like they claim that HAL tries to get money out of them for things that should be free or reduced because they are a certain star level.PLEASE.

*Cruise Critic posters whining about the “good old days”
(And it’s gotten more intense lately)

HAL’s reputation as an old folks’ cruise line has to change
(Try telling the old guard that though.)

*Anyone from HAL read these posts?
(Pretty sure they do, rolling their eyes the whole time.)

Wasting our time making suggestions?
(If they’re the same sort of posts asking for the same things to come back, then yes.)

Most are not worried about Cruise Critic
(True that.)

Why would any cruise line pay attention to Cruise Critic which is not representative of the majority of cruise passengers.?
(They think they’re a going concern because they complain so much that they think that HAL is going to listen to them and bring back the things that they miss.Nope.)

I’ve not received a positive response when I mentioned Cruise Critic to cruise line personnel.They think Cruise Critic posters are whiny.
(They are! Best not to mention it on a cruise ship.)

They knew who I was
(Well, some people have their picture as their avatar so they know people by sight(especially in the case of Portly Princess who I *guarantee* the crew roll their eyes when they see her walking onto a HAL ship.)
