roaming_kate23*A couple were sleeping in the lobby of a HAL ship because the a/c in their stateroom was not working. This was on one of the older ships(which frequently have this issue.)
There was someone who HAD to be the asshole and say that the solution to the problem was to take a cold shower and wash their hair. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard and I have been aware of the Cruise Critic boards for a LONG time and have seen a lot but this is.. I can’t believe it..and yet..I can.
HAL defers maintenance to their ships and it shows. There was a post about ships going by one of the exploding volcanoes in Italy and someone mentioned it with regard to the a/c on the older ships(one of which is in the Mediterranean right now.Now, mind you I have not had issues with the a/c on HAL ships but I have been on the Westerdam, and the Oosterdam both of which have been reported to have issues..no, I think the issue is with some not the oldest of the HAL ships which HAL should scrap(instead of selling them to other cruise lines the way that they have been and then they are another cruise lines’ problem.
There are even some ship groupies who would totally go on the ship even if it was owned by another cruise line and had slightly different decor..Apparently for some people not having a/c is NOT a big deal for some HAL diehards.
