The President and CEO of Holland America Lines came aboard with his wife and a few top executives of the company to schmooze with the repeat, high-worth customers. As a consequence we had two days of “Mariner Appreciation” with a Q&A with the CEO, extra cocktail parties, private receptions for the guests with over 500 days on HAL cruises, and an “Asian Market” dinner on the Lido with a dragon, rickshaw, a sampan in the pool, acrobats, and an open bar.
