    loved the review! Our two families went back in April 2010 and loved every minute of it ! Back in 2007, my older brother and I went on the Pride of Aloha (when NCL Hawaii had three ships). See some changes, but really makes me want to go again after all these years around the islands. Oh yeah, I clearly remember 'the honor' 'I' felt as we left the ship and walked to the ports to have the local greeters, etc. ask us locals 'how was it?", is it expensive?, etc.
    I just had to tell them that they gotta experience it for themselves !

    Thank you so much for this review, you did a fabulous job! My husband and I have a cruise planned for Jan 2025 but have recently read a number of negative reviews about POA and are now hesitant. Mainly the negative comments regarding the ship being dated, unfriendly staff and mediocre food have us concerned. It seems as though you had a very positive experience? We have been to Maui, Kauai, and Oahu over the years and will be spending a week on the Big Island after this cruise. We thought the cruise would be a great way to relax and enjoy the scenery. Thoughts?

    • @Cruisingfoodies
      @Cruisingfoodies  10 місяців тому +1

      Thank you so much for watching and your kind comments, that is very nice of you. To be completely transparent, we did eat at specialty restaurants 4 out of the 7 days so I do believe the food is substantially better in the specialty dining. I agree with the fact that the ship is dated, however, the areas that were updated were very nice. Another option, would be doing a repositioning cruise on a larger, more updated cruise ship. I have done both celebrity and Royal Caribbean and left out of Vancouver and visited the Hawaiian islands and ended in Honolulu, because this is where we live and I have also done it the opposite direction and I did enjoy that more because the ship had a bit more to offer. I will say that the staff was hit or miss. We had some really nice people and then other people you could tell did not want to be bothered. We really enjoyed the overnights on this ship, so for us I would say we used it more so as a floating hotel versus a traditional cruise. Cruise. Cruised over 50 times so we really enjoy being at sea but generally with a larger newer ship. I would say expectations in regards to not having much to do on the ship, and also being on land the majority of the time would be probably the best way to anticipate this type of cruise on POA. Feel free to email me with any questions. I'm a travel agent n happy to help.

      If you have the option to come a day early, I always advise to do so because there could always be a flight delay. But if you do arrive on time at 10:30am, you have plenty of time to hop onboard. It's about 20 minutes from the airport, so you'll be good.

      I have done a couple Hawaii cruises. Even though we live here. I will say that my favorite one was actually the repositioning cruise where we flew into Vancouver for a couple days. Had several days at sea to relax and then explore the islands and finished in Honolulu and did a lot in Honolulu. I feel like this gives you a really good taste of the islands, especially because they're super long days at port or even overnights. However, I would still add in more time in Honolulu since I feel that Oahu offers a lot

    • @Cruisingfoodies

      Also, a good plan is to look at the tours offered in each port and see what you're interested in. And then rent a car and do it on your own. We found that there were things we were not interested in so for us, it was much easier to do it this way. Car rentals are super easy and we did that in each port. Also with Maui and Kauai having overnights, we felt we saw everything on our list.

      So I rented a car ahead of time through Priceline for the airport. We did have to take an Uber over to the airport which was about $15 and the car cost us anywhere between 40 to $70 depending on the port. But that was still well worth it since we were a party of five. If I would have done a tour, it would have been at least $80 a person so we were able to squeeze it in a lot in a rental car instead. I highly recommend using Priceline since they were the most reasonable. I'm a travel agent and Priceline had great deals. The only place we ran into an issue was in Maui when the line was really long because two flights unloaded at the same time but other than there we were totally in and out

      So you can take public transportation in some ports but it takes much longer. There are plenty of tours offered as well but it can get pricey. So for us, we picked our favorite things we wanted to do and rented a car n went to those vs the tour bc it saved a lot of $.

      Just your license is good. No need for a passport if you have a US id

    We are 2 days out and traveling with our 11 month old. Were your kids required to show birth certificate or any other form of ID?

      Yes, my kids had their passport with them. But there was an infant next to us. They asked for the raised seal birth certificate. I also saw another couple that didn't have any id and they let them on. They were us citizens so I don't know if that is why.

      Did you have to rent a car on each island? Did you need to reserve the car in advance of the cruise?

    I went through the three week course to be on The Pride of America. They need to show newbies this video, cuz the food that was offered to the crew…well, I PASSED FIRE SAFETY,CPR/First aid,just not the food part,
    Went through all the team building…had a good time..away from family for five weeks, good or bad.. should have been a more positive experience
