HAL Charters ships....

I read on another board that HAL has chartered Volendam, Zaandam and Zuiderdam for use as extra hotel space in Jacksonville for the SuperBowl. How neat to stay on one of those ships and attend the game. Rooms must be booked for a minimum of three days and no meals will be included.

Also understand that Rotterdam, Oosterdam and Zuiderdam will charter out for the same type use for the Athens Olympics.

True, it would get you closer to those HAL ships, but
then it's only a hotel in a marina. I think I would miss
sailing away from reality (if only for a while) and the
refreshement that only out to sea provides. I guess
vereran HAL cruisers could pretend (at least at nite).
But then where would the vibration come from?
I'll stick to the real thing.

Correction.....I think Westerdam will charter for the Olympics, not Oosterdam. Seeing as Westerdam will be in the Med, it makes more sense to use her. And, she'll be the brand new ship!
