The below information regarding Holland America cruise line was shared and Bonnie in NYC has approved me to share this broadly with all of you:
“I just came back from a one week Caribbean cruise on Holland America and had
no food issues. They are set up to GF and really do it well: they stock many GF options and I had no cross-contamination issues.
“Each night, they provided the GF passengers with the next day’s menu, which was modified for us. Even made us special soups and a flourless chocolate cake.
“We had pre-ordered breads, muffins, etc and they had them waiting for us.
“I’m pretty sensitive and react to the slightest amount of gluten. For the
first time in a long time, I was able to travel and eat with relative ease. Would do it again in a heartbeat.”
“If you go: call their Special Diet people at least 30 days in advance. There’s a GF form, where you make your bread and dessert requests. And eat your dinners in the main dining room and stay with the same waiter. That’s what made it much easier for us.”
