First cruise is always the most exciting :) By day two you will be so relaxed and enjoying it very much! I always recommend bringing some Dramamine as nobody really knows how they will handle being on the ocean until after they’ve done it. Have a great time!!!
@@102810281028nlMuster was updated how most ships have gone with you watching a video and then having them scan you watched it. You will walk to the actual meeting spot as that’s where they scan you watched the video but you do it when you get a chance ( in the first couple hours) I’m really glad this process has been updated. Thanks for watching let me know if you have any questions we can help on
@@kschmidt1967 6041 was great until the last night when they move all the bags off the ship. They pile them outside the door of this room and it was pretty loud.
There are quite a few good ones if you’re flying into Seattle. Make sure to pick one that has a shuttle from the airport and usually a breakfast :) We stayed at the Best Western Seattle airport hotel on this trip but have stayed at the Double Tree & the Country Inn and Suites as well. There are a lot of hotels that are closer to the pier but usually those are about three times the price as the ones next to the airport.
@@Seek.Find.Travel yes was going to cancel and eat it. It was becoming too much loot. But I would have lost everything. I won’t be able to come back though. Take care
@@heidi_mcheidiface We definitely all have our own preferences that’s for sure. So wondering what did you not like about the Eurodam? Was it an Alaska cruise or different? It definitely offers a more traditional side of cruising which we don’t mind for Alaska because of the chill side of things and scenery but can definitely see where someone would prefer more things to do.
I loved Holland America until I tried Princess and realized I like a lot of what Holland America offers with a more modern feel and more to do that Princess offers. Now if it was a Caribbean cruise I wouldn’t want to be on the Eurodam at all I would rather be on a ship with a lot more to do maybe something like Royal Caribbean.
@@Seek.Find.Travel Panama cruise was great. Not as exciting for kids I imagine. Passengers are older on this cruise. We chose Eurodam for its size, to be able to go through the old locks. Love Princess cruises - they have the best beds.
Thank you for your video. We are cruising in July 2025. I can’t wait!
Oh how exciting! You will have a great time!
Great video! We booked this cruise for May 2025. I appreciate the information.
May is our favorite month to go :) Hope you have an amazing trip thanks for watching!
I’m cruising out of Seattle in September and it’s on a the Eurodam. First time crusier

6041….that’s crazy I was in 6038 Panama cruise in April 2024.

What hotel do you recommend for before cruise?

@@Seek.Find.Travelthey cost $300. I am going to find like what you did. Thanks
I am going on Saturday the June 8 been before
Awesome Mike! You will have a great time :)
@@Seek.Find.Travel thanks. Excited. Expensive though with airfare.
@@chicagomike Totally agree it gets really expensive. We always try to go before June as rates get higher in the summer months.

@@chicagomike you will have to let us know how your trip went when you return :) Have a great time!
I went on the Eurodam in 2018. Worst cruise I've ever been on, and I never plan to go on Holland America again. It is not my vibe at all.
I said the same thing about HAL in 2015 until I gave them another chance in 2024 Panama Cruise. Now I’m a fan.
