From the world’s most iconic cities to relatively undiscovered ports for which Holland America Line is known, get closer with AFAR. Additionally, you will note that in each destination section of this brochure, we feature day-by-day descriptions for cruises we call Signature Itineraries. These sailings reflect our vast experience in curating itineraries that best showcase the part of the world you’ve been dreaming of visiting. Equally enticing are subset itineraries with variations on the theme . . . a different port here, an extra day there. All in an effort to provide just exactly the right cruise for you.
EXTENDED EXPLORATION COLLECTORS’ VOYAGES BACK-TO-BACK CRUISES Imagine the life-changing experience of an extended cruise, one that explores multiple ports in several countries, with a stretch of leisurely days to enjoy all that your amazing mid-sized ship has to offer. Holland America Line’s Collectors’ Voyages make that dream a reality. Collectors’ Voyages combine back-to-back itineraries, with few or no repeating ports, offering artfully crafted, in-depth itineraries at an exceptional value.
PUTTING “MORE” FRONT AND CENTRE Many Collectors’ Voyages concentrate on one region, like Europe, where it’s easy to visit many countries on a single voyage without venturing too far. Other Collectors’ Voyages offer you the chance to reach countries that are oceans apart. Whichever Collectors’ Voyage you choose, expect to experience more iconic ports plus a jewel box of hidden gems — those less-travelled ports that are in every way equally spectacular. The memories you collect on this voyage are sure to be kept forever.

From admiring the immense and beautiful to finding splendour in the detailed and intricate — the time to take it all in is yours at last.
EXPERIENCE WONDER ALASKA & THE YUKON YOUR NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE AWAITS Welcome to a land that is literally larger than life. Alaska is home to Denali, the highest mountain in North America, glaciers as tall as skyscrapers, three million lakes with an area of more than 20 acres, vast tracts of untamed wilderness and all the room in the world to create your next great adventure. We started exploring the Great Land 70 years ago. Even then we had a feeling that this could be the start of an amazing and enduring relationship. And with every year, we’ve made it easier for you to delve deeper, venture farther and discover even more of this astonishing place on land and by sea. Cruise through crystalline waters surrounded by towering glaciers. Be on the lookout for caribou and Dall sheep as you tour the tundra in Denali. Retrace the journey of the original Klondikers in the historic Yukon. With each day, you’ll come even closer to discovering the Alaska few ever see. From lush meadows blanketed in wildflowers to expansive seascapes harbouring whales, otters, golden eagles and other captivating wildlife, your experience will ensure you come back from your trip knowing and loving the Great Land as much as we do.

TAKE TO THE WATER 7- AND 14-NIGHT CRUISES TAKE IN THE NATURAL BEAUTY ALL AROUND YOU Delight as leaping porpoises spring from pristine waters. Take the perfect photo of an eagle sweeping by overhead. Awaken to the “Whoosh!” of a whale breaching right before your eyes. Our Alaska cruises are all this and, naturally, glaciers: towering, expansive, monumental in every sense. In one week you can cruise through quiet fjords, watch ice-blue glaciers calve into the sea, mix with Tlingit elders in rustic Ketchikan or opt for a walk on Juneau’s Mendenhall Glacier as part of a helicopter tour. In two weeks you can do even more: Cruise along the wondrous Inside Passage, fish for halibut in Homer, witness remarkable Hubbard Glacier or wander the nature trails on Kodiak Island. Outside your ship lies a world of rugged beauty. Inside is another world entirely, where you can retreat to a quiet corner with a good book or watch your favourite drink appear as if by magic in the bar. Whether you’re experiencing the thrilling spectacle outside from our Promenade Deck or the touch of a relaxing massage in our spa, we make it easy to lose yourself in a sea of contentment.

Glacier Bay National Park Inside Passage disembarkation * Exclusive for guests booked on a Holland America Line excursion.
The quintessential Alaska cruise, featuring the quaint towns of the Inside Passage plus scenic cruising in Glacier Bay National Park. Days 0–1 Relax, unpack, enjoy lunch alfresco on your private verandah while a remarkable nature show plays before your eyes: breaching whales, soaring eagles, barking seals. Day 2 In Juneau opt for a helicopter adventure over the immense Juneau Icefield, hovering close enough to see deep into bottomless blue crevasses. No less thrilling: setting down for a walk on crunchy glacial ice. Day 3 In Skagway, staging grounds for the most incredible gold rush the world has ever known, stroll wooden boardwalks past the saloons and former brothels that enticed prospectors to part with their pokes.
Day 4 Cups of Dutch green pea soup are being served on the Lido Deck as your ship edges so close to the face of Glacier Bay’s Margerie Glacier that you can feel its coolness in the air. Listen: That’s White Thunder, the Tlingit name for the sound of glaciers crashing into the sea. Days 5–7 The Tlingit Nation welcomes you to Ketchikan with song and dance at the clan house in Saxman Native Village. At sea, en route back to Vancouver, British Columbia, take in the many shipboard amenities still on your “to do” list: a massage, winetasting . . . .

Some glaciers, like the beauties at Glacier Bay National Park, are found at tidewater. Others, like the Mendenhall, are found in inland valleys right at street level. You’ll see both. Days 0–2 Join the festive sailaway party on the Lido Deck as your ship slips under Vancouver, British Columbia’s iconic Lions Gate Bridge bound for fascinating explorations of the Inside Passage. First up: Ketchikan, where Tlingit clan stories unfold in intricate totem carvings and salmon-rich streams invite anglers to cast their lines. Day 3 The mighty Mendenhall Glacier, just outside Juneau city limits, will leave you breathless, as will the Mount Roberts Tramway as it lifts you straight up the mountain for sweeping views of the area — and your Holland America Line ship moored in the harbour.

Day 5 Watch as a monumental chunk of ice splits off and thunders into the sea, shooting water hundreds of feet into the air. Hold your breath as you capture the moment. Then wait for it all to happen again. And it does: Glacier Bay has more actively calving tidewater glaciers than anywhere else in the world. Days 6–7 After a relaxing day at sea, arrive in Seward and travel the scenic Kenai Peninsula to Anchorage for a post-cruise stay or connections home. IDEALLY SIZED SHIPS
Mid-sized and designed for scenic cruising, our ships offer expansive views from spacious teak decks, floor-toceiling windows and private verandahs.

First up: Juneau, where you feel the thrill of discovery as you pan for gold in the creek that triggered the Klondike Gold Rush. Day 3 By noon you are at the face of Margerie Glacier, close enough to hear the glacier groaning and to feel the drifting spray made as a tower of ice the size of a three-story building breaks off and thunders into the sea.
Days 4–5 Sitka, the capital of Russian America, welcomes you with lively performances by the New Archangel Dancers, while in Ketchikan it’s all about fishing.

Back on board your luxurious ship, succulent Alaska king crab legs drenched in drawn butter await at the intimate Pinnacle Grill.

NATURAL MAJESTY DENALI LAND+SEA JOURNEYS EXPERIENCE THE STATELY SPLENDOUR OF DENALI What is the measure of a mountain? In the case of Denali, it’s 20,310 feet. That’s enough for the mountain to create its own weather, shelter a large assembly of eagles and take your breath away. At the foot of Denali lie six million acres harbouring Alaska’s own “big four”: Dall sheep, moose, caribou and grizzlies. The anticipation builds the moment you board the McKinley Explorer®, our domed railcar service from Anchorage to Denali. Luxurious and roomy, its arched windows offer panoramic views of the stunning scenery you’ll encounter along the way. An onboard narrator offers interesting commentary, making sure you won’t miss a thing. Upon arriving at Denali National Park, you may be overwhelmed by all there is to discover: hiking, river rafting, fishing, ATV adventures, plus a wealth of exciting gold rush history. Our longer Double and Triple Denali stays provide the time you need to take it all in. The majesty of Denali is matched only by the spectacle of Alaska’s fabled glaciers. There’s no better way to experience them than a relaxing 7-night Glacier Discovery cruise.

When was the last time you had a dinner that was as awesome as the view?

ETHEREAL ENCHANTMENT ASIA ANCIENT, MODERN AND UTTERLY FASCINATING The silence of a 14th-century Shinto shrine speaks volumes. A Chinese garden, unchanged for 600 years, whispers the wisdom of the ages. Elsewhere, Shanghai’s Maglev Train rockets by and major metropolises everywhere bustle and buzz with the electricity of youth and pop culture. Holland America Line cruises bring you the marvels of Asia, where the ancient and modern intersect. Journey with us to the hives of modernity, abuzz with art, music, shopping and culture, in cities like Beijing, Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong and Tokyo. And venture with us, too, to those placid and contemplative places, such as: Vietnam’s incredible northeast coast, Halong Bay, where 2,000 limestone islands stipple the vast bay; Cambodia’s mysterious Angkor Wat, the magnificent temple complex of the Khmer kings; or the Great Wall of China, with some 13,000 miles of structure to contemplate. As vast as Asia is, Holland America Line knows how to help you design your memorable trip.

Gaze over a surreal seascape of limestone islands from the deck of a traditional junk in Halong Bay. Board a pedal cab for a whirlwind tour through the streets of Da Nang, taking in the bustling Han market. Dig your chopsticks into bowls of steaming pho at a cooking class in Nha Trang. And in Ho Chi Minh City, marvel at streets teeming with bicycles, hawkers — and life!
Days 8–9 In Sihanoukville, Cambodia, find everything you’d expect of a resort town developed by a prince, plus easy access to bustling Phnom Penh and the ancient temples of the Khmer kings. Days 10–12 In Bangkok, the Thailand of legend — gilded temples, emerald Buddhas, colourful floating markets — contrasts with a bustling, chaotic modern city. Meanwhile, Ko Samui promises strands of white-sand beaches and the soothing rhythms of Thai life that have endured for centuries. Days 13–14 Continue your Far East discoveries in Singapore with a post-cruise stay carefully crafted by Holland America Line (see page 187).

Practice the slow, graceful moves of tai chi, take a calligraphy class or learn how to make Vietnamese appetisers at the Culinary Arts Center.
If walls could talk, those at Angkor Wat would tell you fascinating tales of the Khmer Kingdom. Each relief tells a story, and the most celebrated is the Churning of the Ocean of Milk, where
the Naga serpent is twisted by demons and gods to spout the elixir of life. Visit this UNESCO treasure on an overland tour, meeting your ship later in another port.

UNDER THE SOUTHERN CROSS AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND & SOUTH PACIFIC A BREATHTAKING, OTHERWORLDLY BEAUTY The deep whir of an aboriginal didgeridoo. The collapse of waves on sand white as clouds. The thrash of kangaroos leaping through brush. Holland America Line is thrilled to take you to and immerse you in the rich spectacle of this wonder-filled land down under, where your cruise combines the exotic, the ancient and the ultramodern in one unforgettable journey. The epitome of exotic: The Great Barrier Reef, Earth’s largest interconnected structure of living organisms, where you can feast your eyes on a riot of tropical colour, coral and aquatic life. The ancient island of MÄ ori warriors, New Zealand amazes with its near-bottomless Fiordland National Park, revealing around every bend another vista more magnificent than the last. No less awe-inspiring are the modern marvels that mark your Holland America Line journey, like the spectacle of the Sydney Opera House silhouetted against the glow of an early evening sky.

Days 0–4 The lyrical silhouette of the famed Opera House fills your vision as you sail from Sydney for explorations in Melbourne, city with a Victorian flair, and in Tasmania, home of feisty devils. Days 5–7 Across the Tasman Sea lies New Zealand and the cathedral-like silence of Milford Sound, star of Fiordland National Park. Thrill as your Captain nudges the bow of the ship right up to a plunging waterfall; dine alfresco on the Lido while a steepsided fiord drifts by. Days 8–10 On the South Island, Dunedin greets you with a Scottish accent (aye, there’s even a splendid Edwardian castle to emphasise the kinship), while
decidedly British Christchurch invites you to picnic on the lawn-lined River Avon. In Picton follow your nose to award-winning wineries. Days 11–15 On the North Island, Wellington invites you to stroll botanic gardens fragrant with the scent of heirloom roses, while Napier delights with an art walk past buildings in the strikingly clean style of Art Deco. From Tauranga, travel to the geothermal activity and fascinating Māori Village at Rotorua. At cruise end, enjoy an overnight in Auckland with time to sail on an America’s Cup yacht or take an adrenalin-pumping jet boat ride around Waitemata Harbour.

Australia and New Zealand are famous for their lamb. So are we. Lamb chops, kebabs, on the rack, so artistically presented that you will wonder, “Is this food, or is this art?”
Warmed by strong sunlight during the day and cooled by sea breezes at night, grapes in New Zealand produce distinctive wines — most notably Sauvignon Blanc. Taste for yourself on an
optional excursion from Picton or Napier. Those rose bushes planted at the ends of the rows? These delicate flowers will be first to show signs of any infestation in the vineyard.

To the fascinating ports of New Zealand’s North and South islands, Holland America Line adds the breathtakingly beautiful Bay of Islands. Days 0–10 Sailing from Sydney, Australia, stop in Hobart to hand-feed the ‘roos at Bonorong Wildlife Park, then cross the Tasman Sea for an in-depth exploration of New Zealand’s South and North islands. Highlights: scenic cruising of Milford Sound, the star of Fiordland National Park, and the celebrated vineyards of Picton and Napier. Days 11–12 “Tauranga” is Māori for “resting place for canoes.” While your “canoe” rests for an extra-long day, visit a centre of Māori culture set in a thermal wonderland of steaming geysers and bubbling mud pools at Rotorua. Moored between two sparkling harbours, Auckland boasts the greatest number of boats per capita of any city in
the world — your chance to crew an America’s Cup yacht or zoom around Waitemata Harbour in a jet boat. Day 13 Cruise among the 150 idyllic rural island landscapes of the Bay of Islands, including Waitangi, where you may climb into a huge log waka (a traditional Māori canoe) and paddle through the tranquil estuaries of the Waitangi River — a great story to tell tonight over a hopped-up Kiwi beer at the Sports Bar. Days 14–16 Head back to Australia, happy in the knowledge that there are discoveries to come with an optional post-cruise stay in Sydney.

PASTEL PARADISE Bermuda, the enchanting British island territory in the North Atlantic, is calling you . . . to revel in its turquoise waters and on its pink-sand beaches, to inhale the blissful fragrance of just-bloomed hibiscus, and to hear the splash of whales and songs of birds. Here, the grandness of nature and the lure of history are ubiquitous, and the journey is as unforgettable as the destination itself.
Have you ever experienced beaches this talcum-soft with sand so pink? Welcome to Bermuda.
B ER M U DA
BERMUDA The perfect week’s holiday: a cruise to Bermuda beginning and ending in Boston, with four days and three nights to enjoy this delightfully British island with a tropical touch.
B ERM U DA
Days 0–2 From Boston it’s just a hop, skip and a cruise to Hamilton, Bermuda, where the ms Veendam will dock in the heart of downtown just steps from bustling Front Street, close to shops, teahouses and horse-drawn surreys. Day 3 Warm sun streams into your stateroom, inviting you to don a pair of Bermuda shorts and hit the beach. The sand here is pink and soft as spun sugar, perfect for toe wiggling. Is this the day you’ll play golf on a championship course? Stunning seaside links present the ultimate water trap: the deep, blue Atlantic. Tonight at the lively Piano Bar, celebrate breaking par.
Day 4 Another sunny day, and the choices are many: a cricket match, a glass-bottom boat ride to the coral reefs of Turtle Cove, exploring streets with sweet-sounding names such as Pie Crust Lane and Berry Hill Road. Day 5 Don’t miss the venerable English settlement of St. George’s, so perfectly preserved it has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Witness the spectacle of a Town Ducking — the old English public punishment for various moral crimes such as gossiping. Days 6–7 Cruise back to Boston, cradle of American history.

THE LAND OF LIGHTHOUSES CANADA & NEW ENGLAND AT ONCE RUGGED AND REFINED The flap of rising sails on wooden masts. The buzz of lobster boats off-loading the day’s catch (tonight’s dinner!). And the squawk of gulls circling high above, along craggy coasts and lighthouseadorned granite cliffs. There’s no mistaking you’re here, in the storied lands of Canada and America’s New England, known for breathtaking scenery, historic seaports, culinary treats and cultural charm. With 44 sailings spanning spring, summer and autumn, Holland America Line proudly introduces you to the region’s quintessential ports of call, from bustling multicultural cities like Boston and Québec City to quaint, one-of-a-kind harbour towns like the artists’ enclave of Bar Harbor, Maine (pronounced “Bah Habah” by the locals) and Prince Edward Island’s Charlottetown, the birthplace of the Canadian confederacy. There’s a reason this region is considered one of the most picturesque, historic and culturally rich in the world. Find out on Holland America Line.

Days 0–1 Sail from Boston and awaken in Bar Harbor, Maine, anticipating a cruise on a Downeast Maine-style lobster boat. That evening, in the ship’s elegant two-tiered main Dining Room, feast on succulent lobster sourced from these very waters. Days 2–3 A hundred thousand Gaelic welcomes await you in Nova Scotia, beginning with a performance by a Citadel highlander and a bagpiper as you sail into Halifax. At the northeast end of the province sits Cape Breton Island, wildly beautiful with inviting highland villages and rugged coastlines. Sydney is the gateway to it all. Day 4 On Prince Edward Island, visit the farmhouse that inspired Anne of Green Gables and hear the
story of the creation of the Canadian confederacy on a self-guided walking tour/scavenger hunt in Charlottetown. Will you find the cannon sunk in the sidewalk? Days 5–6 Poutine (a Canadian indulgence of french fries, gravy and cheese) is served on deck as you cruise the wildlife-rich St. Lawrence River, watching for beluga, humpback and minke whales. In Québec City discover a tree-lined Champs-Élysées, buttery croissants, the lilt of French, the haute couture shops of Old Town. Is this Canada or France? Day 7 Reluctant to bid adieu to French-speaking Canada? Continue your discoveries with a postcruise stay package in Montréal.

CARIBBEAN PLAYGROUND HALF MOON CAY RATED THE BEST PRIVATE ISLAND EXPERIENCE The anticipation is palpable as you approach Half Moon Cay, Holland America Line’s award-winning private island in the Bahamas, set aside just for you. Here, a magnificent two-mile crescent of silky, white sand rimmed in blue invites you to a day of play like no other. Rent a Hobie Cat® and fly around the bay, your sails filled with the ancient tropical breezes that delivered Columbus to these shores. Or zoom around the island on a guided personal watercraft tour. Visit Stingray Cove, where these curious creatures of the deep will follow you anywhere for a little piece of squid. And yes, those are horses you see splashing in the gentle surf, and they’re yours to ride, if you choose, accompanied by an expert guide. Or perhaps your definition of paradise is a massage on a beach shaded by rustling palms. It’s all here and possible on nearly every Holland America Line itinerary, whether you’re cruising the Caribbean’s East, West or South (described on the following pages).

Have you ever raced a banana boat across the waves, walked the beach at sunset, played the day away on a private isle (ours alone)? This is the week. Days 0–2 Sailing from Ft. Lauderdale, enjoy a glorious day at sea, swaying to the catchy rhythms of calypso. By the time you arrive in Grand Turk, you’ll be on “island time,” ready to snorkel with blue angelfish or ride an ATV over shifting dunes. Day 3 By noon you’ll be in San Juan, exploring the massive ramparts of El Morro, built in the 1600s to protect the town from the likes of Sir Francis Drake. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Town, following the aromas of pernil (roast pork) as you’ve never tasted before. This evening, sway to the sound of castanets and the passionate strains of flamenco guitar at a local club.
Day 4 Next: St.-Martin or St. Maarten, depending on which side of this half-French, half-Dutch island you’re visiting. You’ll call at Philipsburg, where Front Street shops tempt with chocolates and cheeses . . . and casinos, where the winner could be you. Days 5–6 A carefree day at sea, then a day of play on Half Moon Cay, Holland America Line’s private island in the Bahamas. Fly around the bay on a sprightly Hobie Cat®, your sails filled with warm, tropical air; swim with stingrays; or just sit still, sinking your toes into silky white sand. Day 7 Return to Ft. Lauderdale, renewed, body and soul.
SU NNY B EACHES
PORT TALKS
On St.-Martin, sunbathe on Orient Bay, “the French Riviera of the Caribbean.” Escape the crowds at Grand Turk’s exclusive Bajari Beach. Play on Half Moon Cay.
DIVERSE CU LTU RES

Conditions permitting.
Walk in the footsteps of Mayan kings one day, snorkel with blue angelfish the next. And for seven blissful days leave all worldly pressures behind. Days 0–1 From Ft. Lauderdale, an overnight sail takes you to Half Moon Cay, our private island with so much to do — sailing, swimming, snorkelling — you won’t know where to begin. Hint: Start by renting a private cabana on the beach and take it from there. Days 2–3 After a carefree day at sea, arrive in George Town, Grand Cayman. Awaken your sense of adventure as you experience the unusual: Pet the soft underbelly of rays at Stingray City; hold a wiggly yearling loggerhead turtle at the Turtle Farm, marvelling that it will one day weigh in at 300 pounds; play on Seven Mile Beach, an emblematic stretch of Caribbean idyll.
Day 4 Love to snorkel? Cozumel, Mexico, is one of the world’s premier dive spots. With just a few kicks of your flippers, a colourful new world opens: the realm of blue angels, yellow butterfly fish, bluegreen parrot fish. Days 5–6 A day’s cruise away lies Key West, inspiration for Audubon’s birds and Hemingway’s novels. How will you mark your time here? Perhaps ride the Conch Train through centuries of Key West history, or cruise on a glass-bottom catamaran to a coral reef that took eons to create. Day 7 Arrive in Ft. Lauderdale, seven days the wiser.
PRIVATE PAR ADISE
TASTE OF THE PL ACE
On Half Moon Cay, settle into a private cabana right on the beach, fully equipped with all the comforts, from mini-bars to floats, fins and snorkels.
MAYAN RUINS
From Cozumel visit the ruins at Tulum on the sea cliffs and Chichén Itzá, with its mystical cenote, where human sacrifices were made.
On a walking tour of Key West, taste local favourites such as conch fritters and key lime pie. In Cozumel, cook up a fiesta of flavours with a local chef.
MIXOLOGY LES SON S
Mojitos, margaritas, piña coladas — a delicious new tropical drink is featured on board every day, and our bar staff are happy to share their secret recipes with you.

Days 0–3 From Ft. Lauderdale, arrive on the Dutch side of an island sharing two flags, landing in Philipsburg, where Front Street tempts with chocolates and cheeses. The French side beckons with beachside bistros, boulangeries and boutiques offering très chic fashions. Day 4 The lush island of St. Lucia forms the perfect backdrop as you enjoy a sunny breakfast on your private verandah. Today go in search of a beautifully plumed parrot that lives only in the jungles of this island and nowhere else. Or seek out colourful silkscreened fabrics at the Caribelle Batik Factory. Days 5–7 Next up: a kaleidoscope of colourful island nations, each with its own culture. In British
Barbados, note that afternoon tea is a given. On French Martinique learn how, in 1902, Mt. Pelée devasted the entire town of Saint-Pierre and everyone in it except for a sole survivor, a prisoner held in an underground cell. And on St. Kitts hear the story of its chequered history — first Spanish, then French, now British. Day 8 Survey Magens Bay, then view your Holland America Line ship from St. Thomas’ Drake’s Seat, the breathtaking vantage point from which Sir Francis Drake himself once viewed his fleet. Days 9–11 A day at sea and a carefree day of play on Half Moon Cay before disembarking in Ft. Lauderdale.

ISL ANDS OF FLOWERS
Look! Up in the air! Colourful parrots, hummingbirds and dozens of exotic birds fill the palms and tropical trees overhead. Don’t miss the feisty little
bananaquit, or yellow bird — immortalised in the song of the same name — easily spotted on Half Moon Cay, so unspoiled it has been designated a Wild Bird Reserve.
Conditions permitting.
TROPICAL MAS SAG E
Nothing feels better after a long day touring and playing ashore than a Lime and Ginger Massage at the Greenhouse Spa & Salon. Truly relaxing.
In the Caribbean there are flowers, flowers everywhere — some rare, most wild, all of which can been seen in Martinique’s lush Botanic Garden of Balata.

The wonders of Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Italy and the French Riviera. And lest we forget: the spring that never ends in Spain, Morocco and the volcanic archipelago that is the Canary Islands. For all of us at Holland America Line, Europe holds a special place in our hearts and minds. We began sailing the Atlantic Ocean and European seas more than 140 years ago; since then we have visited untold ports of call. To us there is no greater joy than being able to share with you the long view of Europe and its history through myriad local points of view. In other words, welcome to a grand epic that is uniquely Europe; it’s time to make it yours.

OPA! MEDITERRANEAN A CELEBRATION AT EVERY TURN The lands that rim the Mediterranean are where civilisation began — and where the fine art of living has been perfected ever since. From monumental sights such as the Acropolis or the Colosseum to simple pleasures like fresh bread dipped in estate-pressed olive oil, the Mediterranean holds endless appeal. As does Holland America Line’s dazzling 2017 Mediterranean programme, anchored by a set of perfectly crafted voyages aboard ms Westerdam; ms Oosterdam; and ms Koningsdam, our new Pinnacle-class ship. Join us and walk in the footsteps of Greek philosophers Plato, Socrates and Aristotle. Behold the dazzling Provençal light that enchanted Picasso, Matisse and Cezanne. Live the dream of a moonlit gondola ride. (Just so happens we overnight in Venice.) Marvel at medieval Croatian towns clinging limpet-like to Adriatic coastlines. The Mediterranean is a celebration of life itself . . . with sights and sounds and Holland America Line itineraries enough to move you to exclaim, “Opa!”

Home of the muses, centre of the classical world, Athens and the Greek Islands will enchant you, one blissful day at a time, as you cruise the sunny Aegean Sea. Days 0–4 Depart Venice for the mythical Greek islands. Up first: Argostóli, renowned for its glimmering blue-violet Drogarati Cave, with acoustics so fine that Maria Callas often performed here. In Olympia, site of the first Olympic games, take your place on a grassy knoll and picture the discus thrower of ancient days in his classical pose. In Nafplion decide which feels better: Asclepion, sanctuary for the god of healing, or the ship’s own mineral pool? Days 5–6 In Athens, relax in the shadow of the Parthenon as you sip a glass of ouzo, the licoriceflavoured local liqueur.
Day 7 On Mykonos, fishing boats bob in a harbour of mottled blues, and a tangle of dazzling white alleyways invite you to discover hidden boutiques and cafés. Day 8 Today visit the incredible ruins of Ephesus . . . the Temple of Artemis, the stunning façade of the Library of Celsus, the Great Theatre where St. Paul preached to audiences of 24,000. Day 9 On Santoríni discover the beautiful village of Oia, where streets are paved with marble; and Sigalas, where grapevines are trained to grow into basket shapes.

This extraordinary itinerary explores the fjord-laced coast of Norway aboard ms Rotterdam or the new Pinnacle-class ms Koningsdam. Days 0–1 The gabled buildings of Amsterdam fade into the distance as your ship sets a northerly course at sea — time to get acquainted with all the enticing venues on your luxurious ship. Day 2 Adventure awaits in Flåm, where you may kayak tranquil Aurlandsfjord, coming within yards of farms clinging to the hillsides; or ride the Flåm Railway past cascading waterfalls and raging rivers. This afternoon the spine-tingling crescendos of Edvard Grieg fill your head as you cruise Sognefjord, winding 136 miles into Norway. Day 3 Stavanger welcomes you with nice, thick Norwegian-style pancakes (lapper) slathered
with jam and sour cream and a chance to view 2,000-foot-high Pulpit Rock from a helicopter. Day 4 The history of Kristiansand spans more than 370 years, well-preserved in a venerable fortress and in an open-air museum where an entire city street is reconstructed with farmhouses from a nearby valley. Day 5 This morning enjoy breakfast on your verandah as you glide through majestic Oslofjord, cutting straight to the heart of Oslo and the delights of the city’s enchanting medieval Old Town. Days 6–7 Enjoy a relaxing day at sea shopping for distinctive jewellery at Merabella, our onboard luxury boutique.

Get ready for summer in Northern Europe, when the sun shines well into the evening, lighting up extended stays in St. Petersburg, Stockholm and Copenhagen. Days 0–1 From Copenhagen cruise to Kiel (Hamburg), gateway to lovely Lübeck, home of the famous marzipan gateau. Days 2–3 A day at sea learning about upcoming ports, including Tallinn, a proud Hanseatic city eager to show off its medieval Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Days 4–5 Staring up at the golden onion domes of Catherine the Great’s imperial palace in St. Petersburg, you can’t help but feel awed — and fortunate to have two full days to take in more of the city’s artful sights: The Hermitage, the ballet, the Fabergé Museum. Day 6 Get a taste of Helsinki’s fabled quality of life
as you stroll along lovely tree-lined avenues and cook with fresh local ingredients at a sprawling country estate that was once the home of composer Jean Sibelius. Days 7–8 Spread across 14 islands, Stockholm is best seen by both land and water, beginning with a drive through the enchanting medieval Old Town and finishing with a cruise along the Royal Canal. Days 9–10 On tap in Warnemünde: a beer tasting, a fresh German pretzel and a look at the remnants of the Berlin Wall. Days 11–12 Enjoy a final evening on board in Copenhagen, allowing time to visit Tivoli Gardens, a fantasyland sparkling in the summer sky.

Days 0–2 First up from Amsterdam is Flåm, with its easy pastoral rhythm. Kayak the glassy waters of Aurlandsfjord, bird-watch or enjoy a simple picnic of bread and geitost, the local goat’s-milk cheese. Marvel at the serenity of Sognefjord, winding 136 miles into Norway.

Day 5 In Trondheim, capital of the Viking kings, ride the narrow-gauge Thamshavn Railway for a steep and winding climb to the copper mines high above Trondheimsfjord — yours to cruise
later this afternoon. Days 6–7 Cross the Arctic Circle, arriving in Honningsvåg, where herds of reindeer roam the tundra. Mail cards with the coveted Nordkapp postmark, then cruise the windswept North Cape, the northernmost point of continental Europe, crossing yet another iconic destination off your bucket list. Days 8–11 Two carefree days at sea bring you to Ålesund, famous for its Art Nouveau architecture, and to Eidfjord for waterfall viewing and scenic cruising of Hardangerfjord.

Then follow Iceland’s longest fjord, Eyjafjörður, to the fishing village of Ísafjörður, where you may sip stream water so cool and clear you’ll be forever spoiled for anything else. Days 7–8 An overnight in Reykjavík, Iceland’s capital city, gives you extra time to soak up the geothermal
waters of the famed Blue Lagoon and to visit the Ölgerðin Brewery where, among other quirky quaffs, you may taste Icelandic mead, powerful brew of the Vikings. Days 9–12 In Greenland visit Qaqortoq, which means “the White Place,” and indeed, 85 percent of it is under ice. And Nanortalik, which translates to “place of the polar bears.” Keep watch! Days 13–14 A sea day away is St. John’s, Newfoundland, where Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal in 1901. Days 15–18 In Halifax follow the scenic coastline to Peggy’s Cove and its famous lighthouse. Tonight, a toast to happy landings in New York.

INTIMATE GRANDEUR ms PRINSENDAM A DESTINATION IN HER OWN RIGHT With the sophistication of a classic yacht and the spaciousness of a cruise ship, ms Prinsendam is as much a destination as her ports of call. Designed to explore the world in elegance and style, ms Prinsendam, accommodating just 835 passengers, is our most intimate ship. She offers many cosy areas in which to find your favourite spot, and most of her lush staterooms provide commanding ocean views. Many even offer private teak-lined verandahs— perfect for soaking up the sun and taking in the sights. Cruise Northern Europe, the Mediterranean and beyond aboard this very special ship, visiting iconic cities and hidden gems along the way. Indulge in the tranquillity of the Caribbean. The smaller size of ms Prinsendam allows you to experience some of our most unique ports of call. Journey down the charming Scheldt River to overnight in bustling Antwerp, or spend a day among the splendid gardens of St. Peter Port outside Guernsey. ms Prinsendam, or “Prince’s” ship, is a vessel truly worthy of her regal name.

Days 0–3 From Ft. Lauderdale cruise to Hamilton, Bermuda, where ms Prinsendam will dock in the heart of downtown just steps from bustling Front Street, close to shops, teahouses and horsedrawn surreys. Days 4–7 And now, four carefree days at sea enjoying a classic Transatlantic crossing. There will be parties and special teas and festivities reminiscent of cruising’s golden era, plus a formal affair worthy of your finest attire. Day 8 True to a tradition of presenting new and unusual ports of call, today ms Prinsendam calls at Horta in the Azores. Here peer into a vast mile-wide volcanic crater, set like a jewel in a lush, ultra-green laurel forest.
Days 9–12 In Cherbourg, head for the cafés and shops of Place du Général-de-Gaulle. Or tour to Mont Saint-Michel, a grand medieval monastery perched atop a rocky island and approached only by the tide’s grace. Day 13 The bustling port city of Zeebrugge puts you within reach of Belgium’s best sights: canallaced Brugge, mecca for chocolate lovers; Brussels, home of the European Union; and Ghent for a taste of Belgian waffles at their source. Day 14 Arrive in Amsterdam, an ocean away from where you first began, rested, relaxed, ready for what’s next.

LEARNING AT SEA
Diamond cutters, art walks, canal cruises, the Dutch countryside: Amsterdam offers so many possibilities, a postcruise stay is a must.
As you cross the Atlantic, learn why the beaches in Bermuda are pink, how the Azores were formed, what makes Belgian chocolates so uniquely delicious.
En route to Normandy enjoy all things French: learn how to make buttery croissants at the Culinary Arts Center, dine on boeuf bourguignon and crème brûlée in the elegant
La Fontaine Dining Room, shop for French perfumes in the duty-free boutique. Maybe splurge with a bottle of Dom Pérignon at the intimate Pinnacle Grill.

FABLED LANDS OF PARADISE These are the islands built by lava, the Hawaiian Islands, where the fragrances of flowers and rhythms of nature — azure waves, secret waterfalls and exotic birdsong — drift across them all. In the spirit of “aloha,” which means “hello” and “goodbye” and “I love you” all at once, Holland America Line explores myriad destinations throughout this archipelago of delights.
Waterfall rainbows glint in the sun, perennial blooms scent the air, and ancient stories are told through the hula.
H AWA I I
CIRCLE HAWAII The islands are calling. Answer aloha’ae, “yes,” as you experience Hawaii as few have, beginning (and ending) with carefree days at sea.
CANADA
Vancouver
Days 0–6 What bliss, five carefree days sailing from Seattle/Vancouver to paradise, dining, dancing, learning all about the islands from your knowledgeable Location Guide. Did you know that the ukulele has its origins in Portugal? Or that not all leis are made of flowers? Day 7 By the time you reach Hilo, you’ll have heard the story of Pele, hot-headed goddess of fire, and how she continues to spew molten lava from her lair in Kilauea Volcano. Days 8–9 Waikiki tells one story of Honolulu. The dormant volcano of Diamond Head tells another. Pearl Harbor yet a third. An overnight stay in
Honolulu gives you time to write your own story as you feel the beat of hula drums and sample pineapple fresh from the field. Day 10 On a catamaran cruise from Lahaina, hear the song of migrating humpback whales; answer the unmistakable call of the conch shell, summoning you to tonight’s luau on the beach. Day 11 The primeval splendour of Kauai’s Na Pali Coast will take your breath away as your helicopter buzzes cliffs that drop 4,000 feet to blue surf. Days 12–17 En route back to Vancouver, rest in the aloha spirit with a ginger and lime massage in the spa or mai tais beside the Lido Pool.

MAJESTIC MEXICO Welcome to the birthplace of ancient Aztec and Mayan civilisations — Mexico, the land of mountains, deserts, jungles, and beaches that go on forever. Where today cobbled streets bustle with busy open markets and upscale shops in Puerto Vallarta. Clear waters teem with marlin, swordfish, sailfish and tuna off Cabo San Lucas. And, in countless coastal restaurants, fresh-caught fish and shellfish steam with the scent of local spices.
Discover the reason people keep coming back: beaches without end, coastal villages with cuisine as colourful as the landscape.
MEXICO
MEXICAN RIVIERA Come with us as we visit the most popular seaside resorts of the Mexican Riviera, each one beckoning with a joyous mood set to mariachi music. Days 0–1 Sail from San Diego and get into the upbeat mariachi mood at the Sailaway Fiesta, poolside on the Lido. Day 2 The famed rock arch (Los Arcos) of Cabo San Lucas looms outside your stateroom as you enjoy breakfast on your private verandah, considering your many options for the day: a Baja Jeep® safari, whale-watching, parasailing. Opt for a salsa-making class with energetic chefs who will also get you moving and swinging to the rhythms of salsa music. Day 3 At first blush, Mazatlán appears to be a big cosmopolitan beach city, but beneath its glitzy
veneer is true heart. Hold your breath as divers wait at the top of a rocky outcrop for just the right wave, then plummet 45 feet into the sea. Exhale. Settle into a surf-side café and dine on a regional speciality: shrimp al mojo de ajo (with garlic sauce). Day 4 In Puerto Vallarta stroll the bustling malecón, lined with shops and incredible sculptures for all to enjoy. Or “Go Tarzan” as you zip line through a tropical jungle, swinging from platform to platform. Days 5–7 And now, two carefree days at sea, sipping icy margaritas as you make your way back to sunny San Diego.
LOCAL CU LTU RE
TASTE OF M EXICO
The spirit of Mexico comes alive with poolside mariachi bands, a Mayan welcome dockside and salsa performances in the Show Lounge.
SHOPPING
Among Mexico’s many treasures: dazzling Mexican fire opals, colourful Talavera ceramics, shiny silver jewelry (look for the 9.25 stamp of authenticity).
Flavouring the menu in our main Dining Room: chicken posole and creamy flan. Learn how to make salsa fresco at the Culinary Arts Center.

A JOURNEY THROUGH BLISS PANAMA CANAL TWO OCEANS, ONE CRUISE Embark on what savvy world travellers consider the thrill of a lifetime: cruising ocean to ocean via the Panama Canal. Nearly 2 miles in length, your journey through this engineering marvel involves a dozen locks in total. From the Pacific Ocean to Gatún Lake, feel yourself being lifted through the locks of Miraflores and Pedro Miguel. Then, near the town Gatún, feel yourself being lowered, ushered to that ocean on the other side of the world: the Atlantic. Holland America Line brings you through the Panama Canal in grand style with options not found elsewhere. Explore Cartagena, Puerto Vallarta and charming Mexican fishing villages; and immerse yourself in the rain forest paradise of Puerto Caldera, Costa Rica, where a lush, verdant ecosystem drips with life. Whether you choose our Sunfarer® cruises (see page 98) or our longer Collectors’ Voyage cruises, Holland America Line has a Panama Canal cruise holiday perfect for you.

PANAMA CANAL This voyage gets off to a dramatic start with a fascinating transit of the Panama Canal, where one mile equals a hundred stories. Then on to explore Central America, from Costa Rica to Mexico.

Conditions permitting.
Days 0–1 One day out of Ft. Lauderdale, our private island in the Bahamas, Half Moon Cay, presents you with a dubious dilemma: What to do first? Swimming with stingrays, snorkelling, riding horseback through the surf. Days 2–4 Following two days at sea, visit Cartagena, once a bastion of the Spanish Main and boasting colonial architecture and the finest emeralds in the world. Day 5 Marvel at the impossibility of the Panama Canal as your ship is lifted 85 feet from the Caribbean to Gatún Lake then gently lowered to the Pacific, using no power other than the force of gravity. Truly one of life’s great travel thrills.
Days 6–7 Puerto Caldera is your jumping-off point for Costa Rican wonders. Delight as brilliant blue morpho butterflies flit about you in the rain forest; visit Poas Volcano before it blows again. Day 8 Next, Nicaragua, Central America’s new travel phenomenon. Banana plantations, Mayan ruins, colonial León are all here. So is the worldfamous Flor de Caña rum distillery. Day 9 Modernity meets Maya in Puerto Quetzal, where weavers spin their brilliantly coloured stories on backstrap looms while the harbour handles Panamax-sized cargo vessels. Days 10–15 Glorious days at sea, punctuated by visits to Acapulco and Cabo San Lucas en route to San Diego.

FIRE & ICE SOUTH AMERICA & ANTARCTICA WONDERS, FROM RED-HOT TANGO TO ICE-BLUE GLACIERS High in the Andes, an ancient melody played on a flute melts away time. In a jungle tucked between Brazil and Argentina, the thunder and power of Iguazú Falls reverberate under your feet. And at 60 degrees south, the ice kingdom of Antarctica greets you with a pristine beauty and primal innocence you’ll find nowhere else on Earth. South America and Antarctica are continents of constant wonder, and Holland America Line is uniquely qualified to guide you through their fascinating histories and timeless landscapes on itineraries ranging from 12 to 38 nights. Awaiting your arrival: the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu, obscured for centuries in the Andean heights, the coolly spectacular Chilean Fjords lined with ice-blue glaciers, sparkling Patagonian lakes set like jewels into towering granite mountains, sizzling Latin cities where you may surrender yourself to the sensuous rhythms of samba and tango, and Antarctica, a world apart.

Days 0–2 From Valparaíso sail to Puerto Montt, gateway to Petrohué Falls and pretty Puerto Varas, fragrant with rose-lined streets. Days 3–5 From Puerto Chacabuco, the spine of the Andes breaks into a thousand enchanting islands and canals — the Chilean Fjords — showcasing spectacles such as massive Brujo Glacier. Day 6 From Punta Arenas, gateway to the famous jagged spires of Patagonia’s Torres del Paine National Park, follow in Darwin’s wake, sailing the wildlife-rich Beagle and Cockburn channels. Days 7–8 The first chunks of ice in Glacier Alley herald majesty to come . . . Italia Glacier, ice blue with a waterfall spilling from it. In Ushuaia, mail
a postcard home from the southernmost town in the world. Then sail around Cape Horn with new respect for ancient mariners. Day 9 Stanley welcomes you to the Falkland Islands with an English accent, a pint at the pub and a chance to come within feet of comedic rockhopper and stately king penguins. Days 10–12 A few nights at sea bring you to Montevideo, where you may step back to 16th-century Uruguay at Colonia del Sacramento. Days 13–14 A full day and night in Buenos Aires, and the options are many: a fiery tango show, the pampas, a scenic river cruise.

Days 0–1 An overnight stay in Buenos Aires gives you time to explore this fashionable city. Tango in the city where it was born? Not to be missed. Day 2 Everyone in Montevideo, it seems, has a gourd of yerba mate in hand. Follow their lead, or journey to a boutique winery ripe with this year’s release. Days 3–6 From Puerto Madryn encounter the world’s largest colony of Magellanic penguins, coming within feet of nesting couples and their fluffy, fledgling chicks. More penguin sightings — gentoo, rockhopper, king — are possible in the Falkland Islands.
Days 7–12 The next five days will be forever with you as you explore the otherworldly realm of the Antarctic Peninsula. Now you will see what few people ever see: colossal floating icebergs (some glowing so eerily blue they seem to be lit from within), thousands of penguins waddling to the sea, seals riding ice floes right beneath your verandah. Days 13–21 Leaving the ice kingdom of Antarctica, you enter the lush, mountainous fjords and channels of the Beagle Channel, the Strait of Magellan and the Chilean Fjords that lace Chile’s southern coast. Day 22 Disembark in Valparaíso with a log of the cruise and memory cards brimming with evidence of your explorations.

Magnificent cathedrals, built on the riches of silver and burnished with years of devotion. Monolithic Mayan temples, rising from jungle tangle, rooted in ancient wisdom and ritual. Rain forests aflutter with iridescent blue morpho butterflies, more essence than insect. And mist-veiled Machu Picchu, still guarding its enduring secrets.

MARVELLING AT MACHU PICCHU At the heart of this extraordinary itinerary is one of life’s great travel thrills: Machu Picchu, mysterious mountaintop citadel of the Inca, made possible with an extended stay in Callao (Lima). Ascend the great stone terraces, imagining the thriving empire that once teemed with activity, when crowds garbed in alpaca and vicuña thronged the streets and envoys borne on litters swept the streets for Pachacuti, the greatest Inca emperor of them all.

SAMBA WARM UP

While you warm up on the sunny, sultry islands of the Caribbean, notably the ABC islands — Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao — samba teams are turning on the heat, rehearsing their sensuous routines until Carnaval finds them in the streets of Rio de Janeiro, wearing little more than a smile, competing for the title of primeiro grupo of the Samba Parade. Holland America Line is thrilled to immerse you in the spectacle of it all, serving as your five-star hotel, complete with samba lessons.

JUNGLE CRUISE Imagine lunching alfresco on your private verandah as Holland America Line carries you 1,000 miles into the heart of the Brazilian rain forest on the biggest, most spellbinding river of all: the Amazon. Wonders unfold at every bend: shaman villages; markets filled with tropical fruit; the astonishing “meeting of the waters,” where two rivers, one dark, one light, run parallel to each other for miles without blending. No less amazing is the ornate pink and white opera house, Teatro Amazonas, brought piece by piece upriver from Europe, where the operatic tenor voice of Caruso still echoes through the jungle night.

VOYAGE OF THE VIKINGS
What brought you here also happens to be why the ancestors of this region, the Vikings, left here: a thirst for adventure.
TALES OF THE NORSEMEN
19 38 OR
Pirates, pillagers, raiders, marauders: The Vikings were all of that as they left their indelible mark on Europe during the Age of the Vikings (AD 793–1066). Yet some merely sought a new life in lands as far-reaching as Iceland, Greenland and Newfoundland. Hear their legendary story as Holland America Line traces the path of notorious Norsemen such as Erik the Red as they made their way across the North Atlantic in wooden longships.

FROM BOSTON AND BACK Surprising evidence of Viking exploration is everywhere. In Iceland, visit the oldest parliament in the world, formed by the Vikings in AD 930; ride a purebred descendant of horses brought here by . . . the Vikings. Cruising Norway’s majestic Hardangerfjord, you’ll wonder why they left their homelands in the first place. An overnight in Rotterdam is pivotal as you conclude your 19-night cruise here, or continue for another 19 nights, beginning with explorations in Ireland, England and Scotland’s pastoral Isle of Skye — all targets for marauding Vikings. Looping back to Boston with new views of the North Atlantic, visit Newfoundland, where explorer Leif Eriksson founded the first Norse settlement.

SOUTH PACIFIC EXPLORER
Sydney Harbour, with its iconic Opera House and famous bridge, welcomes you to a continent brimming with delights both Aboriginal and modern.
LANDS DOWN UNDER Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Tahiti and tiny, undiscovered Niue: Their very names are synonymous with paradise, promising easy island days with “nothing to do,” wrote Robert Louis Stevenson, “but sit in the sun and pick up the fruits as they fall.” Knowing that perhaps you could use a holiday, a true escape from daily routine, Holland America Line has gathered these intriguing island groups, along with New Zealand’s idyllic Bay of Islands, and wrapped them in a carefree 31-night voyage that showcases their unique cultures.

For guests with Holland America Line’s Flight Ease® plan, spelling corrections or name changes may result in a higher air rate, loss of space and/or change fees. SPECIAL REQUESTS
Please contact each airline directly to request meals, oxygen, wheelchair or other airport assistance. Guests travelling with other guests who originate from different cities or who request Flight Ease at different times may not be offered routings on the same flights due to airline schedules and/or availability. SEAT ASSIGNMENTS
Seat assignments are controlled by the airlines but may be requested for most flights in the Flight Ease system subject to availability of the airline’s reservation system at the time of booking. Seat assignments are not guaranteed, and the airlines may change seat assignments. Some airlines charge additional fees for seat assignments. Any fees related to seat assignments are collected by the airlines directly. Guests without seat assignments prior to the flight date will have seats assigned by the airline at check-in on the date of travel. AIR SCHEDULE CHANGES
Airline bookings are subject to flight schedule changes by the airlines. Schedule changes can occur at any time and may affect your flights. Holland America Line is not responsible for airline schedule changes. Holland America Line will try to assist guests affected by airline schedule changes so that flights booked will meet ship embarkation and disembarkation requirements. Any associated costs related to or caused by an airline schedule change are the responsibility of the guest. Changes initiated by guests to flight schedules are subject to any applicable additional costs and fees and may require the cancellation and rebooking of flights at available rates and spaces. AIR RATES/AIR TAXES/FEES
Air rates will be quoted at the time of booking. Air rates are for e-tickets, per person and include all flight taxes and fees. Other charges may be directly assessed by airlines or airports and are the responsibility of the guest. Once you have booked your flight, please check the airline’s website or contact it directly for information regarding baggage fees and other charges. We assume no responsibility for loss, damage or delay while baggage is in the custody of airlines.
LIABILITY AND RELATION WITH AIRLINES
As the air rates we offer are based on capacitycontrolled, promotional and group fares, we may limit or close sales without prior notice at any time. If, due to any cause beyond our control, the air travel is unavailable or otherwise fails to materialise, our liability will be limited to refunding the air price paid to us. We assume no liability for any acts or omissions of any airline, including, without limitation, those involving cancellation of flights, schedule changes, re-routings, damage to or delay or loss of baggage, flight delays, equipment failures, accidents, pilot or other staff shortages, overbooking or computer errors. The liabilities and obligations of an airline to you, and your rights against an airline, are subject to any and all terms and conditions of the airline’s ticket and tariffs. AIR CHANGES/REFUNDS
Prices and availability are not guaranteed until the cruise and air booking are paid in full. Cancelling your cruise/Land+Sea Journey booking for any reason will cancel any air bookings associated with the cruise/Land+Sea Journey booking, and fees will be applied if applicable. FLEXIBLE FARES: No fees will be charged for changes and cancellations made prior to the cruise final payment due date. Changes to the booking after the cruise final payment due date may require cancellation and rebooking of flights. The original schedule and airfare may no longer be available, and a new reservation may need to be created at the current available price. If the current available price exceeds the original airfare, the guest must pay the additional charge. Cancellations after the cruise final payment due date will incur a fee up to the full cost of the ticket, per ticket. Tickets are nontransferable. In some instances, name changes will not be permitted and will require cancellation and rebooking of flights. Prices are subject to increase prior to the time you make full payment for your air-inclusive cruise or Land+Sea Journey. Prices are not subject to increase after you make full payment except for charges resulting from increases in government-imposed taxes or fees. Payment is required by the cruise final payment date or at time of booking if created after the cruise final payment date. RESTRICTED FARES: Full payment for air reservation is required at the time of air booking. Tickets are nonrefundable. Tickets are nontransferable, and name changes are not allowed. Any changes will result in the cancellation of the air booking. Cancellation of Restricted Air will incur cancellation fees of the full cost of the ticket.
OVERNIGHT HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS
It may be necessary for guests to overnight en route to or from their cruise due to airline schedules and/or availability. Holland America Line offers hotel packages which include taxes, bellman gratuities, and airport/hotel/ship transfers where applicable. The cost of hotel accommodations is not included in the air price. Guests are responsible for hotel accommodations, meals, and items of a personal nature. TRANSFERS
Transfers may be purchased between select major airports and the ship on day of embarkation and disembarkation only. Transfers are available to Flight Ease guests and to guests who have independent flight plans. Guests with independent flight arrangements who wish to purchase transfers must advise Holland America Line of their flight information at least 14 days prior to departure by completing online check-in. Unused transfers are not refundable. Transfers are available for purchase between select cities such as Amsterdam/Rotterdam, Ft. Lauderdale/Miami and Seattle/Vancouver connecting to and from Holland America Line ships. Transfers between select city centre locations and Holland America Line ships may be available in Barcelona, London, Rome and Sydney. CRUISE-ONLY GUESTS
We recommend that you schedule a minimum of 3–5 hours both at the beginning and end of your cruise to allow for transfers, customs clearance and airport security checks. Note: If you purchase air transportation independently from Holland America Line, you will be responsible for any and all expenses incurred when joining the vessel in progress.

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT
Unforeseen events do happen. When you book your next cruise, be sure to ask about our Cancellation Protection Plan to help protect your cruise investment. Holland America Line’s Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP) is designed to help protect your holiday investment from loss. CPP is available for purchase on Holland America Line cruises and Land+Sea Journeys. Be it illness, family matters, unforeseen work events — anything — CPP is a product that enables you to cancel your holiday plans before you leave for any reason and receive a refund.
OUR PLAN AT A GLANCE Our Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP) will allow you, for any reason, to provide written cancellation up to 24 hours prior to the start of your scheduled travel (sea, land and/or air) arrangements made by Holland America Line and receive a refund equal to 80% of the eligible amounts paid. CPP is available to all guests, regardless of residency. In addition, Holland America Line (HAL) assumes an additional us$500 liability for lost, damaged or delayed baggage for guests who purchase CPP Standard, still subject, however to the limitations in our baggage policies. For example, we do not cover losses while baggage is in the custody of airlines. The baggage policies of HAL are explained in detail on page 215 in this brochure. Please note: The CPP Plan is not insurance—this is an optional purchase offered by and administered by Holland America Line. It may be added to your reservation to provide you with trip cancellation protection for up to 24 hours prior to the start of your scheduled travel. It provides no rights other than those explained above. For example, it does not protect double-triple-quad occupancy rates should one or more members of your party cancel, nor does it cover expenses or unused services due to trip interruption. Our Cancellation Protection Plan is available for purchase at the time of booking. The cost of the plan is non-refundable. To add our Cancellation Protection Plan to your new booking, please contact your Travel Professional or Holland America Line.

Holland America Line
FOUR REASONS TO CHOOSE THE HOLLAND AMERICA LINE CANCELLATION PROTECTION PLAN YOU CAN CANCEL BEFORE DEPARTURE FOR ANY REASON Even if it’s up to 24 hours before departure under our Plan. Your reservation may be easily cancelled for any reason whatsoever — no claim forms to submit or fine print to review. YOU GET MONEY BACK Holland America Line refunds 80% of eligible amounts paid, plus any applicable taxes, fees and port expenses, minus the premium for the cancellation protection, regardless of your reason for canceling, as long as you cancel more than 24 hours prior to departure. SAME PRICE FOR ALL AGES We offer the same excellent protection for everyone, at the same cost. NO PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS Our Plan does not contain pre-existing condition exclusions.
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S The following sections gives you important information that you need to know before booking a cruise holiday with Holland America Line. Please read them carefully, as you will be deemed to have accepted them when you make your booking with us. YOUR HOLIDAY
Holiday Fares Cruising with Holland America Line represents the best in holiday value. For the latest cruise fares visit www.hollandamerica.co.uk. For fly/ cruise holidays including air from London and regional airports call us on 0843 374 2300. Please check the applicable holiday fare with our reservations staff at the time of booking. Your holiday fare includes accommodation aboard your Holland America Line cruise ship, most meals, and entertainment on board ship. A small surcharge applies to meals at reservations-only restaurants. Not included are items of a personal nature or optional programmes or optional activities such as alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, laundry and dry cleaning, shore excursions, medical services, barber and beauty shop services. All fares are per person based on double occupancy in £ Sterling. Your holiday fare also includes taxes, fees and charges imposed by governmental or non-governmental authorities, including port authorities, relating to your cruise and any air transportation you purchase as part of your holiday. Your holiday fare does not include any taxes, fees or charges that may be levied and payable locally to countries included in your cruise itinerary, for example departure or arrival taxes. We will advise you of any such additional charges at the time of booking. Whilst we try to ensure the accuracy of the information (including prices) in our brochures and in our other promotional material, regrettably changes and errors occur. We will confirm the details of your holiday, including cruise itinerary and holiday fare, before you book. Cruise-only Fares “Cruise-only” fares will not include air transportation, hotel accommodation or transfers. Deposit Once you accept the accommodations and the fares, we will give you a booking reference number. We then ask that you pay a deposit of 15% per person. For bookings made within 90 or 75 days of departure we will ask you to pay the full fare amount (see below). Final Payment Holland America Line must receive the balance of your fare: i) 75 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Alaska Land+Sea Journeys; Pacific Coastal and Pacific Northwest cruises. ii) 90 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Alaska Cruises; Amazon Explorer; Asia; Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific; Bermuda; Canada & New England; Caribbean; Europe; Hawaii, Tahiti & Marquesas; Holiday; Inca Discovery; Incan Empires; Mexican Riviera; Panama Canal Cruises; South America & Antarctica cruises. iii) 120 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Grand World; Grand Voyages; any segment of a Grand World or Grand Voyage. If you are booking through a travel professional they may request payment of the balance in advance of this due date. If it is not received by Holland America Line by the due date we reserve the right to end the contract between us and retain your deposit.
YOUR FLIGHTS
Fly-cruise Fares You may purchase “fly-cruise” fares which will include air transportation, transfers and, where applicable, one night’s pre-cruise accommodation (room only) at the city of embarkation at your own expense. Air Travel All passengers travelling to the USA are required to provide information to the airline prior to check-in. You must provide the relevant details at the time of booking or no later than 70 days prior to your departure from the UK, whichever is the later. This information includes certain personal information, passport details, country of residence, nationality, emergency contact information and the address of where you are staying in the USA prior to your cruise. If you fail to supply the details requested, both fully and accurately, you may not be permitted to board your flight. We will not accept any liability in this situation, and we will not pay you any compensation or make any refunds. International Flights For fly-cruise arrangements we reserve the right to determine the hotel/air carrier, flight routing (which may not be non-stop or direct) and airports used. Baggage fees and other charges may be directly assessed by airlines or airports. Once you are notified of your flight details, please contact your airline for information related to any additional fees or charges. UK Domestic Flights Domestic flights may be booked from many regional airports. Domestic flights are offered subject to air schedules available at the time of booking. Should subsequent schedule changes result in no regional air service being available, no alternative transport will be provided. Booking Your Own Flight? If you are making your own flight arrangements, we recommend that you leave plenty of time to transfer to the ship for embarkation, and on longhaul destinations stay at least one night in a hotel near the port of embarkation. Your return flight to the UK should not leave before 1pm on the day of disembarkation in order to allow sufficient time for disembarkation and transfer time to the airport. Please advise your flight schedule at the time of booking. Fly in Style All flights quoted will be based on economyclass fares. Upgrade supplements are available on request. Your Financial Protection The fly-cruises in this brochure are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. Our ATOL number is 6294. When you pay you will be supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday and travel services listed in this brochure. All non-fly cruises sold in the UK are protected by ABTA. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking. If you do not receive an ATOL Certificate then the booking will not be ATOL protected. If you do receive an ATOL Certificate but all the parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected. Please see our booking conditions for further information, or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate. YOUR DOCUMENTS
E-Tickets It is now the policy of many airlines not to issue passengers airline tickets. You will instead be issued only with a receipt showing a confirmation code, which must be shown at check-in for the flight. All airline standard conditions of carriage
will still apply. It is now Holland America Line’s policy to issue electronic cruise documents which guests may download and print from our website www.hollandamerica.co.uk several weeks prior to sailing. Passports and Visas (USA) U.S. State Department regulations require that all guests travelling from visa waiver countries must be in possession of a machine-readable passport. All visitors to the USA under the visa waiver scheme are required to comply with the mandatory Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA). This will affect passport holders from all countries currently participating in the visa waiver scheme, including UK passport holders. Applying for an ESTA is easy — customers can provide the information online at https://esta.cbp. dhs.gov or via their travel professional. An ESTA is valid for two years and allows multiple visits to the US within that period without the need to reapply. There is usually a small charge for applying for an ESTA of up to us$17 per person. Customers who fail to apply for ESTA up to 72 hours before they depart may experience delayed travel. Please note that the US visa waiver or US visa may not be automatically granted to persons with a police history, however trivial. If you are uncertain, please contact the US Embassy. Visas Egypt — For British Citizen, Irish Citizen, US, Canadian and European Community passport holders, a Quick Stamp visa for Egypt will be issued upon the ship’s arrival in Egypt. Therefore you are not required to obtain an Egyptian visa in advance of your cruise. There is currently no charge for the Quick Stamp Egyptian visa. Australia, China and India — A visa will need to be purchased prior to travel, whether you are embarking, disembarking, in transit of staying on board. Visas can be obtained directly through the Embassy or alternatively you can apply through our recommended agent, CIBT, for an additional charge. Hong Kong, SAR — A Chinese visa is not required for entry into Hong Kong (SAR). Vietnam, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Indonesia and Cambodia — Visas for these countries will need to be purchased and can be obtained on board. A relevant fee will be charged to your on board account. USA (including territories) — Nationals of Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries may enter the USA without a visa after completing an Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). To see if you are eligible for the programme please visit the US Embassy website in the UK at http://london.usembassy.gov or contact them on 090 4245 0100 (premium call rate). If you do not hold a full British Citizen passport or a passport from another country eligible for the VWP, please check to ensure you have the correct documentation for your holiday. You will be unable to enter the USA under the VWP unless you have obtained an ESTA prior to travel. You must be in possession of your ESTA prior to boarding the ship and we recommend that you carry a copy of the confirmation as evidence for immigration purposes. To apply for your ESTA, please follow the link to the ESTA application website at http://london.usembassy. gov. The cost of obtaining an ESTA is currently us$14.00, this is subject to change at any time. Other websites may charge you a higher fee

for the same service. For all other nationalities, please check to see if you are eligible for this programme. CIBT can apply for an ESTA on your behalf for an extra charge, please contact them on 0845 899 7214. British Subject* passport holders are required to obtain a full US visa prior to travel. These are mostly people who were born in British India before 01/01/49 and did not become citizens of India, or who were citizens of Eire and British subjects before 01/01/49 and have made a claim to retain British Subject status. Canada — All British Citizen passport holders will be able to enter Canada without a visa. If you are not in possession of a British Citizen passport, please ensure you check your entry requirements for Canada at www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/index. asp. This will provide you with an up to date list of passport holders that require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) for Canada. British Subject passport holders will require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). Russia — Group visas are automatically arranged for all passengers who have booked a Holland America Line shore excursion. A photocopy of the photograph/personal details page of your passport is required in order to pass through Russian Immigration. To go ashore independently in Russia, a visa is required which can be obtained from the Russian Embassy or CIBT. A visa support letter must accompany your application for a visa and this can be arranged along with your visa through CIBT on 0845 899 7214. Passports and Visas (UK) If you are a British Citizen, a full passport is required for all cruises. If you DO NOT HOLD A BRITISH CITIZEN PASSPORT, your passport/ travel documentation/visa requirements may be different. You should check with your travel professional or our preferred visa supplier, CIBT, on 0845 899 7214, to ensure you have the correct documentation. The following passport and visa information is for British Citizens only. Information included in this section is correct at the time of going to print. Non British Citizen passport holder requirements may differ. Please check with the Embassies of the countries you are travelling to for the most up to date information. You will need to have 6 months validity in your passport after your date of return and we recommend that you have some blank pages in your passport for entry/ exit stamps. Children need their own passports. If you are applying for a new passport, please leave adequate time to action your application. Please be aware that if you are applying for your British Citizen passport, you may be required to attend interviews prior to the passport being issued. For this reason, we advise all passengers in this situation to allow a minimum of 6 weeks to obtain their passports. For further information, please contact the Identity and Passport Service Advice line on (+44) 0300 222 00 00 or visit the website at www.direct.gov.uk or email info@ passport.gov.uk. Please note British Visitor Passports are no longer valid. British Subject* passport holder requirements may differ, please check them before travelling. At times it may be necessary for the ship’s staff to hold your passport for a short time to be able to complete immigration formalities on your behalf.
*British Subject passport holders are mostly people who were born in British India before 01/01/49 and did not become citizens of India, or who were citizens of Eire and British subjects before 01/01/49 and have made a claim to retain British Subject status.
airport to hotel and hotel to ship. In most cases we are able to provide the hotel name before travel; however, hotel rooms are subject to availability and Holland America Line reserves the right to substitute any named hotel for an alternative of a similar standard.
Passports and Visas (General) It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the correct travel documents for your journey. Entry and transit requirements are subject to change, and you are advised to check the requirements with the Consulate or Embassy of all countries on your itinerary. Holland America Line assumes no responsibility for advising guests on immigration requirements. Any guest travelling without proper documentation will not be allowed to board the ship and no refund of the cruise fare will be issued.
Transfers If there is a special “fly-cruise” promotion, transfers will be included as part of your travel arrangements. If guests have booked a cruise and flights with us through Flight Ease®, transfers are at an additional cost. Please note that all ship to airport transfers will take place directly after morning disembarkation, regardless of your flight time. Unfortunately we are not able to accommodate you on board ship after morning disembarkation has occurred.
Many countries require your passport to be valid during and beyond the length of your stay, so check what applies to you. You also need to check and obtain the necessary visas for your destination, including transit visas if required. It is important that all guest names on travel documents be identical to those on the cruise and airline tickets. Otherwise, proof of name change (i.e. marriage licence) or a valid driver’s licence must be presented. Please note airlines may impose fines on passengers travelling with incorrect documentation, and these expenses must be met by the passenger. This fee must be paid in USD in cash only and will be collected by immigration personnel upon arrival at the airport. Please ask for details of fees, which vary according to nationality. PLEASE NOTE: In an effort to prevent international child abduction, many governments have initiated procedures at entry and exit points. These often include requiring documentary evidence of relationship and permission for the child’s travel from the parent(s) or legal guardian if not present. Having such documentation on hand, even if not required, may facilitate entry or departure. Visas will be required for certain destinations such as St. Petersburg* (Russia), Africa and for sections of the Grand World Voyage and South Pacific and Asia cruises. It is your responsibility to obtain the correct visas via the appropriate agency, and you may do this by contacting the CIBT Visa Service on 0870 8900185. *Passengers booking the Holland America Line arranged tours of St. Petersburg (Russia) do not require a visa. Immigration Questionnaire Security legislation in the USA requires us to pass on to the US Immigration Authorities, or other authorised bodies, certain personal and other details relating to our guests. Please visit Holland America Line’s website www.hollandamerica.co.uk and click on ‘For Booked Guests — Immigration Form’ and submit the following details: Full Name, Birth Date, Passport, Visa, Home Address, Home Telephone Number, Emergency Contact Information, Return Flight Information. You will need to have your booking confirmation number in hand. If you do not have access to the Internet, please see your travel professional or contact our Reservations Department if you have booked direct. They will advise you of the alternative ways of providing the above information. PLEASE NOTE: Missing or incorrect information may delay embarkation or result in denied boarding without compensation.

Age Restrictions You must be 21 years of age or over to book a Holland America Line cruise. Guests under 21 years of age must be accompanied by a parent, guardian or chaperone who is at least 21 years old. Passengers aged 13 or over may be permitted to share a stateroom with a passenger who is under 21 (but no less than 16 years of age), providing the stateroom is adjacent to the stateroom occupied by the person accompanying them. Passengers under the age of 13 must either occupy the same stateroom as their parent or occupy a connecting stateroom. One adult chaperone (aged 21 or over) is required for every five people under age 21. Please be advised that bookings will not be accepted for guests under the age of 21 in single staterooms under any circumstances. Alcohol will not be served to guests under age 21. Alcohol on Board You agree not to bring alcoholic beverages of any kind on board for consumption except one bottle of wine or champagne per person of drinking age (no larger than 750 ml) per voyage only in your carry-on luggage. A corkage fee of us$18.00 per bottle (which is subject to change without notice) will be applied to wine and champagne brought aboard by you and consumed in the ship’s restaurants and/or bars. At embarkation, all luggage will be scanned for suspected alcohol in excess of the one bottle policy as provided herein. Your luggage will undergo a secondary inspection by a security team operating under CCTV (closed circuit surveillance) or in the event your luggage is locked, you will be notified and are required to attend the secondary inspection where any alcohol found in violation of this policy will be removed and returned to you on the last night of the voyage. You agree to surrender alcoholic beverages that are purchased duty free from the ship’s gift shop, or at ports of call, to Carrier, which will be delivered to your stateroom on the last night of the voyage. Any guest who violates the alcohol policy, including refusal of a luggage search or screening, or any guest travelling with such items, may be denied boarding or disembarked and no refund of the cruise fare will be issued. You will be solely responsible for any and all damage and/or loss caused by your violation of this policy.
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S Baggage & Valuables Do not pack your passport, medications, cruise documents or airline tickets in your checked baggage. (Remember that checked baggage might not be accessible at all times.) Keep these items close at hand in your purse or jacket pocket. Please note that baggage allowances will vary by destination; therefore, please check with the applicable airline for details of individual baggage policies. Baggage allowance is governed by airline regulations. Excess baggage charges are the responsibility of the guest. Holland America Line will carry as baggage only your personal effects for your wearing, comfort or convenience during your travel with Holland America Line. Your baggage needs to be placed in securely constructed and locked suitcases or trunks. If your travel includes a land component, you are limited to two pieces of checked baggage and one overnight or light flight bag, which must remain in your custody at all times. Holland America Line does not assume any liability for loss of or damage to or delay of perishable items, medicine, liquor, cash, credit or debit cards, jewellery, gold, silver or similar valuables, securities, financial instruments, records or other valuable or business documents, computers, cellular telephones, cameras, hearing aids, electric wheelchairs, scooters, or other video or electronic equipment, binoculars, film, videotape, computer disks, audio disks, tapes or CDs. These items should not be left lying about the ship or your stateroom, nor should they be left unattended on other vessels, railcars or other vehicles or in hotels, nor placed in luggage other than the bag you carry with you. In addition, Holland America Line will not assume any liability for any loss of or damage to carry-on baggage left unattended on the ship or on other modes of transportation or in hotels. Holland America Line’s ships provide, at no extra charge, either safe-deposit boxes in the ship’s Front Office or stateroom safes. Certain hotels may also provide similar facilities. Your use of safe-deposit boxes, stateroom safes or similar facilities will not increase Holland America Line’s liability as described below. Holland America Line cannot be responsible for any loss, delay or damage that occurs before baggage comes into Holland America Line’s actual custody when you begin your travel with us or after baggage leaves Holland America Line’s actual custody at the end of your travel with us. In particular, please note that we assume no responsibility for loss, damage or delay while baggage is in the custody of airlines. Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP) Holland America Line offers an optional Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP), which will allow you, for any reason, to provide written cancellation up to 24 hours before travel, and receive a refund equal to 80% of the eligible amounts paid. CPP is not insurance, and is administered by Holland America Line. It provides no additional rights or protection. CPP is available for purchase at time of booking. Payment is due at time of purchase and is non-refundable. See page 216 for details. Clothing First and foremost, dress for comfort. Daily life aboard ship and in ports of call is laid-back and casual. We encourage you to wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable — sportswear, shorts, sundresses, slacks and so on. Warmer climates call for clothing made of lightweight, breathable fabrics. For cooler climates we suggest casual clothes that can be layered easily and possibly a raincoat and waterproof hat or umbrella and gloves. Evening dress falls into two distinct categories; Formal or Smart Casual. On festive formal evenings, women usually wear cocktail dresses or gowns and men usually wear business suits or tuxedos. There are approximately two formal nights per week. Tuxedos may be hired in advance.
Club HAL®—for Kids For infants, Holland America Line provides, at a small fee, baby food, diapers, high chairs, booster chairs and cribs upon special request (30 days notice) via your travel professional. For our younger guests, Holland America Line’s Club HAL® programme offers supervised activities, games, parties, menus and shore activities for children aged 3–12 in age-specific groups. A special teens’ Oasis area is provided for 13–17 year olds with outdoor and indoor places to relax and socialise. The ms Prinsendam offers youth amenities for guests aged 5–17. Communications Telephone: You may easily make and receive calls in the privacy of your stateroom using our satellite communication telephones. Your Express Documents will contain detailed information, including the phone number for your ship at each specific location. You should be able to use your mobile phone to make calls on board Holland America Line ships. International Roaming fees apply to all shipboard cell phone calls or messages and will appear on guests’ personal cell phone bill. Email and Internet: Guests can send and receive electronic mail in real time via a high-speed satellite link 24 hours a day, satellite conditions permitting. You will be able to access a broad range of communication applications (e.g., Video Mail, CruisE-mail, Microsoft Office® and games, just to name a few). You can surf the Internet, play games, check your stocks, read your email, send a video mail to your loved ones back home and much, much more! Holland America Line has even set up your very own CruisE-mail address for you to use. We also have an Internet Manager on board to assist you. There is a charge for these services. Credit/Debit Card Payments If you wish to pay for your cruise by credit card, we reserve the right to levy a charge for payments made to Holland America Line by credit card. You will be advised of the rate of any such charge at the time of making payment. Exchange rates will be determined by your card provider for all credit card payments on board ship. Cruise Itineraries Cruise itineraries are subject to change. We advise you to check our website www. hollandamerica.co.uk at the time of booking for detailed itineraries. We will try to advise you of any itinerary changes that may occur during the course of your booking; however, we do recommend you check the final itinerary on line before travel. Dining Choices “As You Wish®” Dining — lets you select the venue and style that suits you. Choose from a festive five-course affair; a quick, casual dinner for two; or an intimate meal in one of our reservationsonly restaurants. The choice is yours each day. For reservations in the main Dining Room, you may indicate at booking whether you would prefer a traditional pre-set seating and dining time or the freedom each day to choose the time that suits you. Guests who opt for the latter may make reservations daily during their cruise up to 4.00pm or simply arrive in the Dining Room any time during dining hours for accommodation by the maitre d’hotel. Normal hours in the Main Dining Room are: Breakfast Open Seating Lunch Open Seating Dinner Early Seating Main Seating Open Seating
8.00am 12.30pm 5.45pm 8.00pm 5.15pm–9.00pm
ms Prinsendam Dinner hours First Seating Second Seating
6.00pm 8.15pm
Alternative Dining — Our intimate reservationsonly restaurants, a delicious alternative to the main Dining Room, are very popular. We recommend you make reservations early in your cruise. There is a nominal cover charge per person. Special Diets — Although not guaranteed, we will try to assist with special dietary requests, including vegetarian, fat-free, sugar- or salt-free if advised at time of booking. Kosher,* gluten-free or special medical diets must be pre-ordered a minimum of 90 days prior to sailing. Food Allergies — please note that since meals are prepared in mass quantities on board the ship, it is possible for foods restricted from your diet to come in contact with your meal during preparation. As such, Holland America Line cannot guarantee that you will not come into minimal contact with the items listed on your SRI form while on board. *Kosher meals are prepared off the ship in a kosher kitchen, frozen and brought to the table sealed in their original containers. There is no kosher kitchen on board. Electric Current/Hairdryers All staterooms are equipped with standard USA 110 AC and 220 AC outlets; therefore, you should bring an adaptor with you. Hairdryers are provided in all staterooms. Gift Packages Holland America Line offers a variety of gift packages for guests celebrating a birthday, anniversary, honeymoon or other special event. Please contact us for a list of items and prices or visit the “Gift Order” section on our website: www.hollandamerica.co.uk. Guaranteed Staterooms Please note that guests booked in “guaranteed” staterooms will be allocated the minimum of the guaranteed grade; actual staterooms will not be allocated until embarkation. Holland America Line reserves the right to upgrade guests booked in “guaranteed” accommodation to any stateroom of the same grade or higher which may include the Promenade Deck, obstructed views and shower-only cabins. Special requests cannot be applied to “guaranteed” bookings. Guests may book a specific stateroom, however this may be at a higher fare. Guests with Disabilities We do not discriminate against persons on the basis of disability. We seek, to the extent feasible, to accommodate the needs of persons with disabilities. We have a limited number of staterooms designed for wheelchair and scooter access. For the safety of all passengers and crew, scooters and other mobility equipment need to be securely stored and charged in the passenger’s stateroom and not in hallways or elevator lobbies. Scooters left in these areas could restrict access to these areas in an emergency. For this reason, Holland America Line does have size and weight guidelines for scooters. If you plan on bringing a scooter on the vessel, please email our Access and Compliance Department directly at: halw_access@ hollandamerica.com before making a reservation. Certain land and shore facilities may not be fully accessible to persons with disabilities. While Holland America Line endeavours to contract with companies that provide accessible services and facilities, we cannot guarantee that all services and facilities will be fully accessible. In limited situations where an individual with a disability would be unable to satisfy certain specified safety and other criteria, even when provided with appropriate auxiliary aids and services, we may find it necessary to ask the individual to make alternative travel arrangements. Whilst Holland America Line will seek to minimise difficulties, there may be restrictions on access to certain areas on board, particularly during adverse weather conditions.

DETAILS, DETAILS (CONTINUED)
Holland America Line must be notified of any special medical, physical or other requirements of passengers at the time of booking but cannot guarantee that special requests will be met. See “Booking Conditions” for further details. Health At the time of writing the Department of Health does recommend vaccinations for certain countries visited on our cruises. Since these recommendations do change you should check in good time before departure with your GP, or ask your travel professional for a copy of the Department of Health’s leaflet “Advice on health of travellers”. Alternatively you can find further travel advice on the NaTHNaC UK government funded website at www.nathnac.org. Yellow Fever: A Yellow Fever vaccination is required for all guests visiting French Guiana; Ecuador, Jamaica, Cayman Islands or Dominica after transiting Colombia or Peru or after making a port call in Panama; St. Lucia or Barbados after Brazil or French Guiana; Senegal after Gambia. A valid international Certificate of Vaccination must be taken on the ship (original not copies), which must be fully completed, signed and stamped by a Medical Practitioner. The vaccination must be given at least 10 days before entering a Yellow Fever area for it to be effective and valid. If Yellow Fever vaccination is contraindicated for medical reasons, an exemption letter can be issued by your Medical Practitioner and this must be brought with you to the ship. Local Port Health officials will then decide if a vaccination waiver can be granted. Malaria: There is a risk of Malarial transmission in a large number of tropical and subtropical countries and regions. Your risk may depend on whether you take certain shore excursions or visit certain areas within a country. We therefore recommend that you seek advice from a Travel Medicine Clinic and, if advised, obtain prophylactic medication before joining your cruise. Hotel Service Charge Our crew works very hard to make sure that every aspect of your cruise meets the highest standards. This includes those crew members who serve you directly, such as dining room wait staff and the stewards who service your stateroom each day. There are also many others who support their efforts whom you may never meet, such as galley and laundry staff. To ensure that the efforts of all of our crew members are recognized and rewarded, a Hotel Service Charge is automatically added to each guest’s shipboard account on a daily basis. At the time of printing, the Hotel Service Charge for suites is us$13.50 per guest, per day and us$12.50 per guest, per day for other staterooms. The charges are subject to change without notice. If our service exceeds or fails to meet your expectations, you are free to adjust this amount at the end of the cruise. The Hotel Service Charge is paid to Holland America Line crew members and represents an important part of their compensation. A 15% service charge is automatically added to bar charges and dining room wine purchases. In terminals, airports, ports of call and on shore excursions,we suggest that you extend gratuities consistent with customary local practices. Infants Please note that infant air fares are based on infants not occupying their own seat. Should
216
Holland America Line
you wish to purchase a seat, child rates would apply. We will not accept reservations for infants who will be less than 6 months of age on the departure date. For trans-ocean cruises, the minimum infant age is 12 months. Insurance Requirements It is a condition of the contract that you obtain travel insurance to cover the risk of your needing medical care on board or in a foreign country. Your insurance must include cover for all preexisting medical conditions and must cover emergency evacuations from the ship, shore hospital medical costs, and repatriation costs. It should have a limit of not less than £2 million. We have a relationship with Holiday Extras Ltd who can offer comprehensive travel insurance covering our requirements. You can obtain a quote and full terms and conditions from www. holidayextras.com/hollandamerica or by calling 0800 316 3061. If you choose a different insurer you will need to ensure the policy covers you on a worldwide basis for all medical costs you may incur due to pre-existing conditions or otherwise, as set out above. Medical Facilities & Pregnancy Each ship has a Medical Centre on board, supported by fully qualified doctors. Although we hope that none of our passengers become ill, please note that medical and repatriation expenses in countries such as the United States can be substantial and this is why we insist upon all passengers having valid insurance to cover them for such costs. If you happen to be taken ill whilst cruising with us and your conditions were so serious that we needed to get you to shore, you would be placed into the care of our port agents and a member of our port team ashore would assist you and provide support if required. Please note, however, that all medical services on board are charged for, and that it is a condition of the contract that you have travel insurance to cover you for medical costs you may incur (see the section on Insurance above). If your condition will require that you have special medical apparatus or assistance on board, we must be made aware of that at time of booking in order to determine whether we can accommodate your needs. If you are using prescription drugs, please bring an adequate supply with you and keep them in your carry-on luggage. Due to the limited medical facilities on the ships, we will not accept reservations for women who will be 24 or more weeks pregnant at the time their cruise with Holland America Line concludes. Late Bookings For late bookings, the online check-in process can be completed up to 3 days prior to the departure. After this time, the online check-in will be closed, but your e-documentation can still be printed. Laundry and Pressing Laundry, pressing, ironing and dry cleaning facilities are available on board. For safety reasons ironing is prohibited in your stateroom. Coin-operated washing machines and dryers are also available for your use on the ms Maasdam, ms Prinsendam and ms Veendam. Mariner Society® Our Mariner Society Rewards Program (for past guests) is explained on pages 36-37. Please advise your Mariner status at the time of booking so that we can calculate the best available fare. Mariner discounts do not apply to flights, hotels or transfer arrangements. On board Spending Our cashless society is designed to make your life on board as simple as possible. When you board the ship, you may make shipboard purchases by simply showing your guest identification card and signing a receipt. In order to activate your account, you need to register your credit or debit card (Visa®, Mastercard® or
American Express®) at the Purser’s desk. Your card will be pre-authorised for us$60 per person for each day of your cruise. If the cruise is longer than 25 days this is reduced to us$30 per day. At the end of your cruise, you will receive a final statement and your card will be charged only for the actual amount of your purchases. For banks outside the USA and Canada, please inform your credit or debit card issuer in advance that your card will be used on a Holland America Line ship. This will help prevent delays in obtaining preauthorisation on board. Some banks may keep the pre-authorisation in place for up to 30 days; therefore, you are encouraged to use a credit card rather than a debit card. If you do not want to use a credit or debit card, the ship will collect a cash deposit in U.S. dollars from you at time of boarding in the same pre-authorisation amount. Any excess deposit will be refunded to you at the end of the cruise. U.S. travellers cheques may be cashed at the front office to make your deposit. All on board charges will be assessed in U.S. dollars and exchange rates for purchases will be determined by your credit card provider. Personal cheques or sterling travellers cheques are not accepted on board. Ships’ Registry The ms Amsterdam, ms Eurodam, ms Koningsdam, ms Maasdam, ms Nieuw Amsterdam, ms Noordam, ms Oosterdam, ms Prinsendam, ms Rotterdam, ms Veendam, ms Volendam, ms Westerdam, ms Zaandam, and ms Zuiderdam are registered in the Netherlands.

Single Travellers Take advantage of our Single Partners Share Programme whereby you may share a stateroom with another non-smoking guest of the same sex and pay only the per-person, double occupancy rate — even if we are unable to find a partner for you. In addition, on sailings of 30 days or longer, a carefully selected group of gentlemen have been invited to serve as social hosts, offering single ladies pleasant company for dining, dancing and conversation. Shore Excursions Shore excursions are not part of your holiday fare. Shore excursions may be booked on board ship, or can be pre-booked and prepaid online at www.hollandamerica.co.uk before your holiday. If excursion details are not yet finalised at the time you want to book, please check again closer to your departure date. Online shore excursion bookings close 3 days prior to sailing. Your vouchers will be delivered to your stateroom on embarkation. Shore excursions are provided by local suppliers and your shore excursion contract is with that supplier, not Holland America Line. Holland America Line will not be liable for failure to perform such shore excursions nor for injury, damage or loss of whatever nature arising thereof. Please see the booking conditions for further information. Shore excursions can only be booked online or on board, and for further assistance please email halshoreexcursions@ hollandamerica.com. Smoking Policy Cigarette smoking is allowed in designated areas such as certain lounges and outside decks. Smoking is not permitted at any time in the dining areas, corridors or common areas. Cigar and pipe smoking is permitted on outside decks only. All stateroom interiors are non-smoking. Guests who smoke in their staterooms will be charged a us$250 cleaning
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S fee. Smoking is not allowed in the showrooms during performances. Electronic cigarettes are permitted in staterooms but not in any other public areas of the ship other than on outside decks designated as smoking areas. Staterooms Stateroom descriptions shown on pages 190193 of the brochure are accurate at the time of printing, and we advise guests to read these descriptions and symbol legends carefully at the time of booking.

It is the responsibility of our guests to check the current Holland America Line brochure for full stateroom configurations and details before confirming a reservation. Upgrade Policy Holland America Line reserves the right to upgrade a guest or guests to a more expensive category of accommodation at no additional cost. Visitors Holland America Line, upon evaluation of customer concerns, has implemented a “no visitor” policy and regrets any inconvenience this may cause. Website The Holland America Line website (www.hollandamerica.co.uk) features itineraries, ships and other useful information about your cruise. You may also download and print a “Know Before You Go” brochure which features more detailed information on your cruise than shown on these pages. ALASKA TOUR INFORMATION
The distance covered during tours does necessitate some early-morning departures in order for guests to experience and enjoy all the sightseeing detailed in the itinerary. Taxes Your holiday fare includes the cruise passenger head tax levied by the Alaskan government which is us$34.50 per guest. Baggage (Flights) Alaska Airlines has restricted baggage allowance. Guests travelling internationally and connecting straight through on their international ticket will be allowed the normal international luggage allowance; however, if the Alaska Airlines sector takes place more than 12 hours before or after the international flight, guests will be charged to take their luggage on Alaska Airlines. A charge of us$25 each for the first 2 bags and us$75 for each additional bag. Baggage (Tours) Tour passengers will be limited to two pieces of checked baggage per person and one overnight or flight bag which must remain in your care at all times. Meals Meals are not included on the land portion of any Land+Sea Journeys (except where shown on the itinerary). Certain Land+Sea Journeys do offer meal plans which may be pre-purchased. Please contact our reservations department for more information. Denali National Park Sightseeing Weather at Denali National Park may at times restrict the length of sightseeing tours. We may provide a refund for any unused portion of the tour. Extra Cost Provisions At tour destinations, weather may adversely affect flights. If, due to weather, you are required
to spend an additional night, you will be responsible for your own hotel and meal costs. Neither the tour operator nor the airline will assume such additional expense. Hotels Holland America Line selects the best hotels available locally, however, these are subject to availability and we reserve the right to substitute any named hotels for accommodation of a similar standard. Single rooms may be requested at a supplementary charge but cannot be guaranteed at Denali National Park. The McKinley Explorer® Domed Railcars There is no reserved seating on the railcars; it is on a first-come, first-served basis, and meal times will be assigned by the Car Manager on board. Smoking is only allowed in the vestibule between cars. Railcars are pulled behind the Alaska Railroad train, therefore, Holland America Line cannot be responsible for any delays in scheduled timings. Motor Coaches On Gray Line of Alaska motor coach routes your driver will act as guide and arrange rotation of seating. Seats cannot be reserved, and a “no smoking” policy applies. There are frequent picture, coffee and rest stops. Weather/Clothing Alaska, like the rest of the Pacific Northwest, is mild in summer. You may experience the occasional rain shower, therefore, it is wise to pack an umbrella and raincoat. We suggest slacks, low-heeled shoes and light jackets for daytime wear and smart casual clothing for hotels. For cruise dress code, see “Clothing.” BOOKING CONDITIONS

Guests are responsible for checking with regard to any delay/cancellation of flights.

A Package may be transferred to another person provided that the Guest consults with Holland America Line prior to purporting to transfer the Package (so that, for example, Holland America Line may require that the Package is transferred to someone on its wait list) and Holland America Line receives the transfer request more than: i) 120 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Grand Voyages (including segments); Amazon Explorer; Hawaii, Tahiti & Marquesas (28 nights or more); Incan Empires (including segments); Europe Transatlantic (30 nights or more), including segments. ii) more than 90 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Asia; Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific; Holiday; Inca Discovery (including segments); ms Prinsendam Europe; South America & Antarctica Cruises. iii) more than 75 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Alaska Cruises and Alaska Land+Sea Journeys; Bermuda; Canada & New England; Caribbean (excluding Holiday); Europe (excluding Holiday, Transatlantic voyages of 30+ nights & segments, and ms Prinsendam Europe); Hawaii (27 nights or less, excluding
218
Holland America Line
Between 120 days, 90 days or 75 days (as appropriate) and 14 days (inclusive) before the scheduled departure date and subject to the conditions above, Holland America Line will normally agree to such a transfer only where the original Guest will be prevented from travelling by reason of an unavoidable event (such as illness, death of a close relative or jury service) and Holland America Line may require satisfactory evidence before agreeing to the transfer. All transfers of a Package to another person at any time up to 14 days or more before the scheduled departure date will be subject to an administration charge of £50. 13. Any request for a transfer of a Package to another person which is received by Holland America Line 13 days or less before the scheduled departure date shall be treated as a cancellation by the Guest of the Contract and a cancellation charge under clause 38 shall become payable. 14. Any transfer of a Package including any flights will also be subject to any charges imposed by the airline. Guests should note that airlines may not allow transfers on scheduled flights and that a flight booking may have to be cancelled and rebooked, in which event the rebooking will always be subject to flight availability and to payment of any charges imposed by the airline which may, in some cases, be the full cost of the ticket. 15. If a Guest wishes to transfer to another Package, this will generally be treated as a cancellation under clause 38. Holland America Line, at its discretion, may allow the transfer without treating it as a cancellation if the Holland America Line holiday to which the transfer is to be made departs within 12 months (within 6 months in the case of transfer from a Grand World Cruise, Grand Voyage or a sector of a Grand World Cruise or Grand Voyage) of the original and is for a higher price. Agreement to transfer a Package would also be conditional upon such a request being made more than: i) 120 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Grand Voyages (including segments); Amazon Explorer; Hawaii, Tahiti & Marquesas (28 nights or more); Incan Empires (including segments); Europe Transatlantic (30 nights or more), including segments; Tales of the South Pacific Cruises. ii) more than 90 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Asia; Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific; Holiday; Inca Discovery (including segments); ms Prinsendam Europe; South America & Antarctica Cruises. iii) more than 75 days before the scheduled departure date in the case of all Alaska Cruises and Alaska Land+Sea Journeys; Bermuda; Canada & New England; Caribbean (excluding Holiday); Europe (excluding Holiday, Transatlantic voyages of 30+ nights & segments, and ms Prinsendam Europe); Hawaii (27 nights or less, excluding Holiday); Mexican Riviera (excluding Holiday); Panama Canal (excluding Holiday) Cruises. There being availability; and to payment of both an administration charge of £100 and any expenses (such as airline and/or hotel charges) incurred by Holland America Line as a result. Such a transfer would only be allowed on one occasion. The criteria for allowing transfers may be changed by Holland America Line at any time without notice. 16. All such transfers to another Package will be treated as a new booking. Any discount or promotion applicable to the original booking may not apply to the new booking, in which case the Guest shall be required to pay any difference in price.
17. After a Package has been booked, Holland America Line will try to accommodate any request for a change (such as a change of stateroom), but such changes are always at Holland America Line’s discretion and are subject to an administration charge of £50. Fitness to Travel and Guests with Disabilities And/Or Reduced Mobility 18. In order to ensure that Holland America Line is able to carry Guests safely and in accordance with applicable safety requirements established by international, EU or national law or in order to meet safety requirements established by competent authorities including the ship’s flag state, the Guest making the booking represents that all Guests in the booking are fit to travel. 19. At the time of booking every Guest is obliged to inform Holland America Line of any condition, including but not limited to reduced mobility or any Disability, which may require special arrangements, medical equipment/supplies, care or assistance. This is to ensure that the Guest can be carried safely and in accordance with all applicable safety requirements. If the Guest cannot be carried safely and in accordance with applicable safety requirements then Holland America Line can refuse to accept a booking or to subsequently embark that Guest on the grounds of safety. Such a refusal will be based on an assessment of risk by Holland America Line to take into account the provisions of national law and other applicable legislation and international regulations including the International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention and the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea. It is important that the fullest information is provided by the Guest at the time of booking. If a Guest’s circumstances change between the date of booking the Package and the date of commencement of the Package, which may make the carriage of that Guest unsafe, the Guest is obliged to inform Holland America Line as soon as possible and to advise Holland America Line of any requirements for special arrangements, medical equipment/ supplies, care or assistance. 20. Holland America Line reserves the right to require any Guest to produce medical evidence of fitness to travel on the Package in order to assess whether that Guest can be carried safely in accordance with applicable international, EU or national law. Where Holland America Line considers that it is strictly necessary Holland America Line may require a Guest with reduced mobility or any Disability to be accompanied by another person who is fit and able to assist them in day to day tasks and capable of providing the assistance required by the Guest with reduced mobility or any Disability. This requirement will be based entirely on safety grounds and may vary from ship to ship and/or itinerary to itinerary. Examples of Guests who may fall into this category include Guests who use wheelchairs or mobility scooters (the term ‘wheelchair’ shall hereinafter be used to refer to wheelchairs and mobility scooters collectively) or who require assistance with personal care. The assessment of whether or not it is strictly necessary for a Guest to be accompanied will be based on information provided at the time of booking. Guests are requested to provide as much information as possible to enable a full risk assessment to be made. Guests may be asked to provide further information to ensure that Holland America Line has all relevant information. 21. In order to ensure that Holland America Line can provide the necessary assistance and there are no issues relating to the design of the ship or port infrastructure and equipment, including port terminals, which may make it impossible to carry out the embarkation, disembarkation or carriage of the Guest in a safe or operationally feasible manner, Guests who may require
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S special treatment or assistance or with reduced mobility or Disabilities (including Guests who use wheelchairs) must advise Holland America Line in writing before a booking is made. Guests who use wheelchairs must furnish their own standard size wheelchairs. Ships’ wheelchairs are available for emergency use only. Further information is contained in the Holland America Line brochure and website. For the safety of the ship and all guests on board, all wheelchairs and other aids to mobility must be stored in the Guest’s stateroom when they are not being used. Holland America Line reserves the right to refuse passage to any Guest who has failed to notify Holland America Line of their requirement for special treatment or assistance or of reduced mobility or Disabilities (including the requirement to use a wheelchair). The cost for loss or damage to mobility equipment caused by the fault or neglect of Holland America Line or a shipping incident is subject to Holland America Line’s absolute discretion to either repair or replace the equipment. Except where Holland America Line agrees otherwise and in writing at the time of booking Guests are restricted to having on board the ship, two pieces of mobility or other medical equipment with a combined value not exceeding £2,250 per stateroom. 22. Holland America Line and/or the relevant port authorities shall be entitled to administer a Public Health Questionnaire at any time. All Guests agree to complete the pre-boarding questionnaire and to supply accurate information regarding any symptoms of illness including but not limited to gastro-intestinal illness. In the interests of health and safety Holland America Line may deny boarding to any Guest who has symptoms of any viral or bacterial illness including but not limited to Norovirus. Refusal by a Guest to complete the relevant pre-boarding questionnaire may in itself result in denied boarding. All cases of denied boarding will be treated as a cancellation attracting 100% cancellation charges in accordance with clause 38. 23. In the event that any viral and/or bacterial illness is diagnosed whilst a Guest is on board that Guest may be required to remain in his or her stateroom for reasons of health and safety. In the event that any Guest refuses to remain in their stateroom during the period recommended by the ship’s doctor then that Guest may for reasons of health and safety be disembarked by Holland America Line without any further liability. 24. In order to ensure that Guests are carried in accordance with applicable safety requirements Guests are required to notify Holland America Line at the time of booking: (i) of their specific needs with regard to accommodation, seating or services required and/or whether they need tobring any specific medical equipment on board; (ii) of the nature any assistance required from Holland America Line or any terminal operator; (iii) if the Guest wishes to bring a recognised assistance dog on board the ship. Assistance dogs are subject to national regulations. There is also a limit to the number of dogs which can be carried on board. It is therefore imperative that the requirement is notified at the time of booking. (iv) of any other assistance which is required on board. Please note that the medical facilities on board Holland America Line’s ships are NOT equipped to perform dialysis. The shipboard doctors are not trained to provide dialysis treatments but are able to assist in emergency situations. It is the responsibility of the Guest to provide all dialysis equipment and treatment. This includes antibiotics. A risk assessment shall be carried
out at the time of booking to ensure that the Guest can be carried safely and in accordance with applicable laws. The electrical supply on board Holland America Line’s ships varies but may not be the same as the standard electrical supply in the UK. Guests should contact Holland America Line for specific details. It is important that any Guest who will be bringing electrical medical equipment on board the ship contacts the manufacturer or supplier to ensure that the equipment is safe to use on board the ship. In relation to medical equipment there are limited storage facilities on board. It is the responsibility of the Guest to arrange delivery of all medical equipment to the ship prior to departure. The requirement for Guests to notify Holland America Line prior to booking if they need to have medical equipment on board is to ensure that the medical equipment can be carried and/or carried safely. There are restrictions on the number of oxygen cylinders which can be carried in staterooms. The ship’s medical centre cannot refill or supply oxygen cylinders. It is the Guest’s responsibility to ensure that all medical equipment is in good working order and for arranging enough equipment and supplies for the duration of the Package. The ship does not carry any replacement equipment and access to shore side care and equipment may be difficult and expensive. Guests must be able to operate all medical equipment. If there are any particular medical conditions which require supervision then such supervision must be organised by the Guest and at the Guest’s expense. The ships do not provide one-to-one or other carers for physical or psychiatric or other conditions. The ships do not offer respite services. Guests must note that not all medical equipment can be carried or used onboard aircraft. Guests must check with the airline prior to carriage. Pregnancy 25. Holland America Line recommends that women who are less than 12 weeks pregnant should seek medical advice prior to travel. 26. Holland America Line does not have on board its ships adequate medical facilities for childbirth. Accordingly for reasons of health and safety Holland America Line regrets that it cannot carry Guests who will have entered their 24th week of pregnancy or beyond before or at any point during their Package. All pregnant women are required to produce a doctor’s or midwife’s letter stating that mother and baby are in good health, fit to travel taking into account the proposed itinerary and that the pregnancy is not high-risk. The letter must also include the estimated date of delivery (EDD) calculated from both the last menstrual period (LMP) and ultrasound (if performed). Holland America Line cannot accept a booking or subsequently carry a Guest unless they comply with the requirements of this clause. In the case of a booking by or on behalf of a pregnant Guest made before it could reasonably have been known that the Guest would not be able to join the Package by reason of the Guest entering their 24th week of pregnancy or beyond at any point in their Package, Holland America Line will refund in full the price paid by or on behalf of that Guest and the price paid by any accompanying Guest, provided that the pregnant Guest notified Holland America Line as soon as reasonably practicable upon becoming aware that she would not be able to join the Package, but shall otherwise have no liability whatsoever. Holland America Line expressly reserves the right to refuse passage on board to any Guest who appears to be in an advanced state of pregnancy and Holland America Line shall have no liability whatsoever in respect of either such refusal and/ or the carriage of any such Guest. 27. Pregnant Guests are referred to clauses 29–31 headed “Medical Treatment” for information regarding the medical facilities on board.
28. The ship’s doctor is not qualified to deliver babies or to offer pre or post natal treatment and no responsibility is accepted by Holland America Line in respect of the inability to provide such services or equipment. Medical Treatment 29. The Guest acknowledges that whilst there is a qualified doctor on board it is the Guest’s obligation and responsibility to seek medical assistance if necessary during the Cruise. 30. The ship’s doctor is not a specialist and the ship’s medical centre is not required to be and is not equipped to the same standards as a land based hospital. The ship’s medical centre is not designed for the provision of extensive or continuing treatment. The ship carries medical supplies and equipment in accordance with the requirements of its flag state. Neither Holland America Line nor the ship’s doctor shall be liable to the Guest as a result of any inability to treat any medical condition as a result. A customary fee will be charged for services and medications dispensed by the ship’s medical centre. 31. In the event of illness or injury a Guest may have to be landed ashore for medical treatment. No representations are made regarding the quality of medical treatment at any port of call or at the place at which the Guest is landed. Medical facilities do vary from port to port and no representations or warranties are made in relation to the standard of medical treatment provided by the various hospitals and/or clinics. Insurance 32. It is a condition of the Contract that every Guest must have full and valid medical insurance which includes cover for pre-existing medical conditions worldwide, or as a minimum, in the countries that the Guest is due to visit and which must remain in force for the entire duration of the Package. The insurance policy must, as a minimum, include medical and repatriation coverage for not less than £2 million and must include cover for the cost of emergency evacuations from the ship, including but not limited to, evacuations by helicopter. 33. Wherever possible, Holland America Line will offer general assistance to any Guest who suffers illness, personal injury or death during the period of the Package, whether or not arising from an activity forming part of the Package and whether or not the result of fault by any party. 34. Any cost or expense which is reasonably incurred by Holland America Line for or on behalf of the Guest in respect of any form of medical, dental or similar treatment, hotel, transportation, repatriation or any other expense shall be repayable by the Guest to Holland America Line, whether or not such sum is covered by the Guest’s travel insurance. Prices And Extras 35. Holland America Line reserves the right to vary particulars and prices since advertised. Prices, discounts, supplements and special offers advertised may be withdrawn or changed. Prices may go up or down. Guests should contact their travel professional for up to date prices and charges before booking, or call us on 0844 3388600. Holland America Line reserves the right to levy a charge for payments made to Holland America Line by credit card. The Guest will be advised of the rate of any such charge at the time of making a payment. 36. The price of your Package can be varied due to changes in transportation costs such as fuel, scheduled air fares and other airline cost changes which are part of the contract between the airline (and their agents) and Holland America Line, government action such as changes in VAT or any other government imposed changes and currency changes in relation to an exchange

rate variation. In the case of any small variation, an amount equivalent to 2 per cent of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges, will be absorbed for increases but not retained from refunds. For larger variations this 2 per cent will still be absorbed for increases but not retained from refunds. In either case there will be an administration charge of £1 per Guest, together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means the Guest has to pay an increase of more than 10 per cent of the price of the Package, the Guest may cancel the Contract and receive a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges or insurance premiums. No consequential costs or expenses or loss of profits will be payable. Holland America Line will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if the Guest can show that he/she was unable to transfer or re-use the policy. Should the Guest decide to cancel for this reason, the Guest must exercise his right to do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on the final invoice. Alternatively, the Guest can accept an offer of an alternative Package if Holland America Line is able to provide an alternative and transfer payment made in respect of the original Package to the alternative Package. If the cost of the alternative Package is less than the original Package the difference in price will be refundable. Please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your Package due to contractual and other protection in place. 37. All accounts for on-board services and goods and for shore excursions must be settled in full before the Guest leaves the ship. In the event that a Guest fails to settle his on-board account at or before the completion of the Cruise, Holland America Line reserves the right to charge interest on the outstanding sums until the date of actual payment and shall be entitled to make a reasonable administration charge for the subsequent collection of such sum due in addition to any costs of legal process. Holland America Line also reserves the right to cancel any future bookings that the Guest may have and to set off any sums owed to Holland America Line by the Guest against any sums due to the Guest from Holland America Line, without prejudice to any other remedies Holland America Line may have under these Conditions or otherwise. Cancellation by the Guest 38. The Guest may cancel the Contract at any time prior to the commencement of the Package via their travel professional or, for Guests who have booked direct, by calling our Reservations Department, but in that event Holland America Line shall be entitled to levy a cancellation charge as a percentage of the price in accordance with the following scales: GRAND VOYAGES (INCLUDING SEGMENTS); AMAZON EXPLORER; HAWAII, TAHITI & MARQUESAS (28 NIGHTS OR MORE); INCAN EMPIRES (INCLUDING SEGMENTS); EUROPE TRANSATLANTIC (30 NIGHTS OR MORE), INCLUDING SEGMENTS:

The cancellation charges applicable to flights will vary but they could be equivalent to the full cost of the flights. The cancellation charges applicable to flights will be advised at the time of cancellation. 39. It may be possible for the Guest to re-claim these cancellation charges (less any applicable excess) under the terms of the Guest’s insurance policy. Claims should be submitted to the appropriate insurer. After departure, if the Guest disembarks whether by reason of sickness or any other reason the Guest will not be entitled to a refund of a proportion of the Package not used. Alteration and Cancellation by Holland America Line Prior to Departure 40. Whilst Holland America Line will do its best not to cancel or to make any significant alteration after a booking has been made, it shall nevertheless be entitled at any time prior to departure to cancel the Contract or to change and/or curtail the Package where this reasonably becomes necessary on operational, commercial or other grounds. Holland America Line will inform the Guest of any such cancellation or change of Package as quickly as possible (with, where appropriate, written confirmation as soon as reasonably possible thereafter). If Holland America Line makes a significant alteration to the Package it will inform the Guest
or his travel professional as soon as reasonably possible. The Guest will have the choice of either accepting the alteration, accepting an offer of an alternative Package of comparable standard if available (Holland America Line will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value) or cancelling the Package and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. The Guest recognises and agrees that it will not normally be possible for Holland America Line to offer an appropriate substitute Package which is available at about the same time as and/or with a similar itinerary to that originally booked, but Holland America Line will do its best to provide a suitable alternative Package of similar duration and value. The Guest must notify Holland America Line of his decision as soon as reasonably possible and in any event not later than 14 days of being informed of the significant alteration. 41. If the Guest cancels the Package in the circumstances set out in clause 40 or if Holland America Line cancels the Package, the Guest shall also be entitled to compensation as follows (except if the change or cancellation is due to force majeure, non-payment by the Guest or where the minimum number of Guests required for a Package to proceed is not reached): 120 to 43 days notification given by Holland America Line for Grand Voyages (including segments); Amazon Explorer; Hawaii, Tahiti & Marquesas (28 nights or more); Incan Empires (including segments); Europe Transatlantic (30 nights or more), including segments; Tales of the South Pacific Cruises: 5% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 90 to 43 days for all Asia; Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific; Holiday; Inca Discovery (including segments); ms Prinsendam Europe; South America & Antarctica Cruises: 5% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 75 to 43 days notification given by Holland America Line for all other Alaska Cruises and Alaska Land+Sea Journeys; Bermuda; Canada & New England; Caribbean (excluding Holiday); Europe (excluding Holiday, Transatlantic voyages of 30+ nights & segments, and ms Prinsendam Europe); Hawaii (27 nights or less, excluding Holiday); Mexican Riviera (excluding Holiday); Panama Canal (excluding Holiday) Cruises: 5% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 42 to 29 days notification given by Holland America Line: 10% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 28 to 15 days notification given by Holland America Line: 15% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 14 to 0 days notification given by Holland America Line: 20% cruise credit per full fare paying guest 42. The value of any cruise credit will be calculated by reference to the price actually paid for the cancelled Package and may only be used for other bookings with Holland America Line. Any such new booking must be made by no later than 31 December of the year after the date of the original Package. Credit vouchers may be redeemed against the price of the new Package net of any discount available to the Guest at the time of booking. The compensation set out above does not exclude the Guest from claiming more if he/she is entitled to do so or from requesting that compensation be provided in a different form. No consequential costs or expenses or loss of profits will be payable.
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S Alteration and Cancellation by Holland America Line After Departure 43. After departure, Holland America Line does not guarantee that the ship will call at every port on the itinerary or follow every part of the advertised route or schedule or that every part of the Package will be provided. Holland America Line reserves the absolute right to decide whether or not to omit any such port(s) and/or to call at additional ports and/ or to change the advertised route, schedule or Package. If Holland America Line is unable to provide a significant proportion of the Package, it will make suitable alternative arrangements, at no extra cost to the Guest, for the continuation of the Package. If the Guest does not accept them, for good reasons, or, if it is impossible to make suitable alternative arrangements Holland America Line will, where appropriate, provide the Guest with transport back to the place of departure or to another place to which Holland America Line and the Guest have agreed. In both cases Holland America Line will, where appropriate, compensate the Guest. Please note that compensation will not be payable if an alteration is minor or if Holland America Line is not able to provide a significant proportion of the Package due to force majeure. 44. Transit or part transit of straits, other sea areas controlled by vessel traffic schemes, canals, rivers and all other navigable waterways may be subject to delay due to operational circumstances and/or the requirements of the local authorities and Holland America Line shall have no liability whatsoever in respect of any such delay. Security, Safety and Support 45. Guests are expected at all times to conduct themselves in a proper manner and with due regard to the health, safety, comfort, enjoyment and general well-being of all persons both on board the ship and involved in the provision of any service or facility forming part of the Package or any shore excursion, and the Guest expressly agrees to this. If it appears that a Guest’s conduct, behaviour or health is such as to be a breach of this requirement or the Guest’s behaviour, health or conduct is likely to endanger the Guest’s own health or safety or that of any other Guest or crew or may make the Guest likely to be refused permission to go ashore at any port or may make Holland America Line liable for the costs of any medical treatment and/or maintenance and support and/or repatriation, then Holland America Line and/or the Master shall have the right according to the particular circumstances to take any one or more of the following measures as may appear to be reasonable and appropriate: • refuse to embark or to disembark the Guest at any particular port or other place of call; • disembark the Guest; • transfer the Guest to another berth; • confine the Guest to a particular stateroom or to the ship’s medical centre; • through the ship’s doctor and/or his staff, administer any drug, medicine or other substance of a similar nature, or admit and/or confine the Guest to a hospital or any similar institution at any port as the ship’s doctor may consider necessary. 46. In the event of Holland America Line and/ or the Master acting in accordance with clause 45 above, neither the Guest nor (at the sole discretion of Holland America Line) any other person travelling with the Guest (whether or not under the same booking) shall be entitled to make a claim against Holland America Line for any loss or expense incurred as a result of such action, whether for a full or partial refund of the price or for any other form of compensation or for the cost of returning to the United Kingdom or to any other place or for any other form of loss or expense whatsoever.
Where the Guest is repatriated pursuant to this clause at Holland America Line’s expense, Holland America Line shall have the right to recover the cost of this. 47. If any Guest is denied the right to board an aircraft because, in the reasonable opinion of the Captain, the Guest is unfit to travel or represents a threat to the safety of the aircraft or its passengers or crew or is abusive or disruptive, Holland America Line will not be liable to complete the Guest’s holiday arrangements and will not be liable to pay any refunds or compensation. If an aircraft is forced to make an unscheduled landing as a result of the conduct of any Guest, Holland America Line shall have the right to recover the full cost thereof from the Guest. 48. For security reasons, it may be necessary at any time to search Guests and/or their luggage and goods and the Guest agrees to allow such search upon being so requested by the Master or any other authorised person. 49. The Guest must not bring on board the ship any goods or articles of an inflammable or dangerous nature, nor any controlled or prohibited substance, nor any animals (except service animals in limited circumstances). To do so shall be a breach of these Conditions and shall render the Guest strictly liable to Holland America Line for any injury, loss, damage or expense and the Guest shall compensate Holland America Line in full for any loss, damage or expense suffered by Holland America Line as a result of such breach. The Guest may also be personally liable to statutory penalties. The Master (or any other officer delegated for the purpose) shall be entitled at all times to enter and search the stateroom and personal luggage (whether or not in the stateroom) of any Guest whom the Master reasonably believes may be in breach of this clause. Where the Guest is found to be in breach of this clause, Holland America Line and/or the Master of the ship shall be entitled to exercise any of the powers conferred by clause 45 and clause 46 shall apply. Guests are not permitted to bring alcoholic beverages of any kind on board the ship for consumption except one bottle of wine or champagne per Guest of drinking age (no larger than 750 ml) per Cruise only in carry-on luggage. A corkage fee of us$18.00 per bottle (which is subject to change without notice) will be applied to wine and champagne brought aboard by the Guest and consumed in the ship’s restaurants and/or bars. At embarkation, all luggage will be scanned for suspected alcohol in excess of the one bottle policy. Guests’ luggage will undergo a secondary inspection by a security team operating under CCTV (closed circuit surveillance) or in the event that luggage is locked, Guests will be notified and are required to attend the secondary inspection where any alcohol found in violation of this policy will be removed and returned on the last night of the Cruise. Guests agree to surrender alcoholic beverages that are purchased duty free from the ship’s gift shop, or at ports of call, to Holland America Line, which will be delivered to the Guest’s stateroom on the last night of the Cruise. Guests are solely responsible for any and all damage and/or loss caused by violation of the alcohol policy contained in this clause 49. 50. Any crew member or other person authorised by Holland America Line shall be entitled to enter a Guest’s stateroom to carry out necessary inspection, maintenance or repair work or for any purpose associated therewith. Complaints 51. Any problem which arises during a holiday must be raised by the Guest at the time with a representative of Holland America Line. If the problem is not resolved to the full
satisfaction of the Guest during the holiday, it is essential that to enable the complaint to be investigated properly it must be notified in writing to Holland America Line at the earliest opportunity thereafter and in any event no later than 28 days after the Guest’s return from the Package. Failure to report the complaint within this time may adversely affect Holland America Line’s ability to investigate and deal with it and may prejudice any future claim. Complaints relating to EU Regulation 1177/2010 Concerning the Rights of Passengers when Travelling by Sea and Inland Waterways must be made to Holland America Line in writing within two months of the date on which the service was performed. Within one month, Holland America Line shall respond to the Guest that the Guest’s complaint has been substantiated or rejected or is still being considered. However, the time taken to provide the reply shall be no longer than two months from receipt of the complaint. Liability 52. Subject to paragraphs 52 to 56 Holland America Line accepts responsibility for death, injury or illness caused by the negligent acts and/or omissions of its Suppliers in respect of the Package, but excluding the Cruise. Holland America Line limits its liability, where applicable, by the conventions referred to in clauses 55 to 60 inclusive. In any event, Holland America Line is not responsible for any improper or non-performance of any services forming part of the Package which are wholly attributable to the fault of the Guest; the unforeseeable or unavoidable act or omission of a third party unconnected with the provision of any services to be provided under the Contract; unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of Holland America Line and/or the relevant Supplier the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, including (but not limited to) an event of force majeure; or any event which Holland America Line and/or the relevant Supplier could not even with all due care have foreseen or forestalled. 53. For claims not involving personal injury, death or illness or which are not subject to the conventions referred to in clauses 55 to 60 inclusive, Holland America Line’s liability for improper performance of the Contract shall be limited to a maximum of twice the price which the Guest affected paid for the Package (not including insurance premiums and amendment charges) and Holland America Line shall have no liability for any loss of business or profits, loss of use or any other consequential or indirect loss or damage. 54. All carriage (by land, air and sea) is subject to the terms and conditions of carriage of the actual carrier. These may limit or exclude liability. They are expressly incorporated into the Contract. Copies of these terms and conditions are available on request from Holland America Line. Holland America Line will ensure that the Guest is informed of the identity of the air carrier once it has been finalised and details of likely carriers are contained in the brochure. Holland America Line does not use any carrier on the EU banned carrier list, available via our website. The liability of Holland America Line will not exceed that of any carrier. 55. Carriage of Guests and their luggage by air is governed by various international conventions (hereinafter “the international air conventions”), including the Warsaw Convention 1929 (whether as amended by the Hague Protocol 1955 or the Montreal Protocol 1999 or otherwise) or the Montreal Convention 1999. Flights between the UK and any member state of the European Union are currently governed by EC Regulation 889/2002 which gives legal effect to the

Montreal Convention 1999. To the extent that Holland America Line may be liable as a nonperforming air carrier to Guests in respect of carriage by air, the terms of the international air conventions (including any subsequent amendments and any new convention which may be applicable to a Contract for a fly cruise between Holland America Line and a Guest) are expressly incorporated into these Conditions. The international air conventions may permit the carrier to limit its liability for death and personal injury, loss of and damage to luggage and delay. Insofar as Holland America Line may have any liability to the Guest in respect of carriage by air, it shall be determined accordingly. Copies of these conventions are available from Holland America Line on request. 56. International Carriage of Passengers and their luggage by sea, including the Cruise, is governed by EU Regulation 392/2009 on the Liability of Carriers of Passengers by Sea in the Event of Accidents (EU Regulation 392/2009) which may be viewed at https://www.gov. uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/ attachment_data/file/2724/annex-b-regec392-2009.pdf and The Athens Convention 2002 which may be viewed at https://www. gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/ attachment_data/file/261628/Misc.6.20 13_ Prot_2002_Athens_8760.pdf. Copies are available on request. The Athens Convention 2002 and EU Regulation 392/2009 are expressly incorporated into these Conditions and any liability of Holland America Line for death or personal injury or for loss of or damage to luggage arising out of international carriage by sea shall be solely brought and determined in accordance with the Athens Convention 2002 and EU Regulation 392/2009 which limit the carrier’s liability for death or personal injury or loss of or damage to luggage and make special provision for valuables. The limits of liability are assessed by reference to Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) which fluctuate depending on daily exchange rates. All SDR values in these Conditions are accurate as per 28 April 2014. Up to date figures may be assessed at the following website http://www.imf.org/ external/np/fin/data/rms_sdrv.aspx. It is presumed that luggage has been delivered undamaged to the Passenger unless written notice is given to Holland America Line(as carrier): a. in the case of apparent damage, before or at the time of disembarkation or redelivery; b. in the case of damage which is not apparent or of loss, within 15 days from the date of disembarkation or redelivery or from the time when such redelivery should have taken place. Where the Cruise is seagoing but does not call at more than one country (Domestic Carriage) then the provisions of the Athens Convention 1974 may apply. If the domestic carriage is in the UK the Merchant Shipping (Convention relating to the Carriage of Passengers and their Luggage by Sea) (Amendment) (Order) 2014 (2014 Regulations) may apply. Non seagoing cruises shall be subject to the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 and liability for death and or personal injury is limited to 175,000 SDRs per passenger. These provisions will also apply where the ship is being used as a floating
222
Holland America Line
hotel. The limits applicable to cabin luggage pursuant to the Athens Convention 1974 and the 2014 Regulations are 833 SDRs (£768). The figure increases to 2,250 SDRs (£2,075) where EU Regulation 392/2009 and the Athens Convention 2002 apply. Holland America Line is not liable in respect of the loss and/or damage to any valuables unless these have been deposited with the ship. Using the cabin safe is not a deposit with the ship. Where deposited with the ship and unless a higher figure is agreed in writing, Holland America Line’ liability pursuant to the Athens Convention 1974 and 2014 Regulations will be limited to 1,200 SDRs (£1,107) or where EU Regulation 392/2009 and/or the Athens Convention 2002 apply, 3,375 SDRs (£3,113). In the event of death and/ or personal injury then the limits applicable under the Athens Convention 1974 and 2014 Regulations are 46,666 SDRs (£43,048) or 300,000 SDRs (£276,741) where the Performing Carrier’s principal place of business is in the UK. In accordance with EU Regulation 392/2009 and the Athens Convention 2002 the Passenger has a right to compensation for death or personal injury up to 250,000 SDRs (£230,617) per incident from the carrier in respect of a shipwreck, capsizing, collision or stranding of the ship, explosion or fire in the ship, or defect in the ship (“Shipping Incident”) save where the Shipping Incident resulted from an act of war, hostilities, civil war, insurrection or a natural phenomenon of an exceptional, inevitable and irresistible character; or was wholly caused by an act or omission done with the intent to cause the incident by a third party. Compensation for a Shipping Incident can increase by a further 150,000 SDRs to a total figure of 400,000 SDRs (£368,998) per Passenger, per incident unless the carrier proves that the incident which caused the loss occurred without its fault or neglect. In the event of a non-shipping incident the Passenger must prove that the incident which caused the damage was the result of the carrier’s fault or neglect. In those circumstances the maximum amount payable will be 400,000 SDRs. In any case involving war or terrorism the maximum payable is 250,000 SDRs per passenger or 340 million SDRs per ship per incident. A summary of EU 392/2009 may be viewed at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/ themes/passengers/maritime/doc/rights-in-caseofaccident.pdf 57. Any damages payable by Holland America Line up to EU 392/2009, the Athens Convention 2002 and or 2014 Regulations limits shall be reduced in proportion to any contributory negligence by the Passenger and by the maximum deductible specified in Article 8 (4) of the Athens Convention 1974. 58. Insofar as Holland America Line may be liable to a Guest in respect of claims arising out of carriage by air or carriage by sea, Holland America Line shall be entitled to all the rights, defences, immunities and limitations available, respectively, to the actual air carrier (including his own terms and conditions of carriage) and under the Athens Convention, and nothing in these Conditions shall be deemed a surrender thereof. To the extent that any provision in these Conditions is made null and void by the Warsaw Convention, the Montreal Convention or the Athens Convention or any legislation compulsorily applicable or is otherwise unenforceable, it shall be void to that extent but no further. 59. Insofar as the Cruise may be performed on a ship not owned by Holland America Line, it is agreed that Holland America Line shall at all times nevertheless be deemed a ship owner for
the purposes of the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims 1976, whether as amended by the Protocol of 1996 or otherwise and as in force in any relevant jurisdiction from time to time, and so entitled to limit liability thereunder. 60. Except for claims arising out of carriage by air (as provided by clause 55), any liability in respect of death and personal injury and loss of and damage to luggage which Holland America Line may incur to the Guest during sea carriage, whether under the Contract in accordance with these Conditions or otherwise, shall always be subject to the limits of liability contained in the Athens Convention 2002, EU Regulation 392/2009 or the 2014 Regulations. 61. In respect of any claims for loss of or damage to property including luggage which are not covered by international conventions including the Athens Convention 2002, EU Regulation 392/2009, the 2014 Regulations and/or the Montreal Convention and where liability is not limited by reference to any enactment, terms or conditions then any legal liability that Holland America Line may have for any such losses will be limited to £500.00 per Guest. Holland America Line shall not be liable for lost valuables including jewellery and/or monies under any circumstances. Guests must ensure that their personal possessions and valuables are with them at all times. 62. Hotels and shuttle services included in the Package are arranged by Holland America Line with local Suppliers who may themselves engage the services of local operators. Standards of hygiene, accommodation and transport in many countries where excursions take place are often lower than comparable standards in the UK. Holland America Line will at all times endeavour to appoint reputable and competent local Suppliers. The terms and conditions of the hotels and shuttle services will be applicable and are expressly incorporated into the Contract. These may limit or exclude liability of the hotelier or the shuttle services operators. The liability of Holland America Line will not exceed that of any hotelier and/or shuttle services operator. Local laws and regulations of the relevant country will be relevant in assessing performance of the Package services. In the event of a complaint by a Guest, the Contract will be regarded as having been performed if local laws and regulations relating to those services have been satisfied even if the laws of England and Wales have not been met. Holland America Line is not responsible for any improper or non-performance of such services which are wholly attributable to the fault of the Guest; the unforeseeable or unavoidable act or omission of a third party unconnected with the provision of the services to be provided; unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of Holland America Line and/or the relevant Supplier the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, including (but not limited to) an event of force majeure; or any event which Holland America Line and/or the relevant Supplier could not even with all due care have foreseen or forestalled. 63. Holland America Line does not include any shore excursions in the price. Shore excursions do not form any part of a Package. Shore excursions may be reserved after a Package has been booked from a separate shore excursions brochure or online. Reservations may be made for a specified period prior to the Cruise commencing. Purchases may also be made onboard the ship.
I M P O R TA N T P O L I C I E S 64. Any shore excursions booked will be supplied by local operators. Holland America Line will at all times endeavour to appoint reputable and competent local operators who apply the local laws and regulations of the relevant country. Shore excursion operators are not Holland America Line’s servants, agents or suppliers. Holland America Line is not responsible for any acts or omissions which are wholly attributable to the fault of the local operators. Holland America Line does not operate, perform or otherwise organise and/or audit any shore excursions. All Guests must ensure that they are fit and healthy to undertake shore excursions. All shore excursions are governed by the terms and conditions in the shore excursions brochure. 65. All employees, agents, contractors and their sub-contractors (including Suppliers as defined in clause 1), as well as all insurers of both Holland America Line and its suppliers shall have the benefit of the same rights, defences, immunities and limitations available to Holland America Line under these Conditions. Actions, Claims And Time Limits 66. Any action by a Guest arising out of carriage by air or sea must be commenced within the time limit prescribed by the Warsaw Convention, the Montreal Convention or the Athens Convention 2002 or EU Regulation 392/2009 or the 2014 Regulations, as applicable. 67. If a court or tribunal applies any law other than English law, Holland America Line shall (in respect of all exclusions and limitations of liability) be entitled to the maximum protection allowed by that law including statutory protection of limitation as to the amount of damages recoverable. 68. Some disputes involving claims to a limited amount may, if the Guest so wishes, be referred to arbitration under a scheme devised by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators for Cruise Lines International Association or a scheme arranged by ABTA and administered independently by CEDR Solve. An application for arbitration must be made within nine months of disembarkation from the ship. Details of the above schemes are available on request. Consumer Protection 69. Holland America Line provides full financial protection for all Packages. For flight-based Packages this is through Holland America Line’s Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 6294. In the unlikely event of Holland America Line’s insolvency, the CAA will ensure that Guests booked on flight-based Packages are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money the Guest has paid to Holland America Line for an advance booking. For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. When a Guest buys an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from Holland America Line they will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists the flight, accommodation, car hire and/or other services that are financially protected, where the Guest can get information on what this means for them and who to contact if things go wrong. Holland America Line or the suppliers identified on the ATOL Certificate will provide the Guest with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither Holland America Line or the suppliers are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide the Guest with the services it has bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to the Guest). The Guest agrees to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will
perform those obligations and agrees to pay any money outstanding to be paid by the Guest under the Contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, the Guest also agrees that in some cases it may not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case the Guest will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or its credit card issuer where applicable). If Holland America Line, or the suppliers identified on the ATOL Certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) the Guest under the ATOL scheme. The Guest agrees that in return for such a payment or benefit the Guest assigns absolutely to those Trustees any claims which the Guest has or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against Holland America Line, the Guest’s travel agent (or the Guest’s credit card issuer where applicable). The Guest also agrees that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums the Guest has claimed under the ATOL scheme. 70. Not all Packages offered and sold by Holland America Line will be protected by the ATOL scheme. All non-fly Packages sold by Holland America Line in the UK are protected under the ABTA scheme of financial protection. In the unlikely event of Holland America Line’s insolvency, ABTA will ensure that Guests booked on non-fly Packages are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money paid to Holland America Line for an advance booking. Cruises sold overseas may be covered by consumer protection schemes in place in the country of sale or by the protection scheme operated by ABTA, and Guests should contact Holland America Line for confirmation of what protection may apply to their booking. Data Protection 71. In clauses 71 to 73, “you” means the Guest. In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements, Holland America Line needs to use the personal information you provide such as name, address, any special needs, health, medical, mobility or dietary requirements, etc. Holland America Line may pass personal information on to other relevant suppliers of your travel arrangements such as travel agents, airlines, hotels, and transport companies. Your personal information may also be provided to security and/or credit checking companies, credit and debit card companies, government and enforcement agencies, public authorities such as customs and immigration if required by them, or as required by law. Holland America Line may also use your personal information for the purposes of carrying out security checks. Your personal information may be shared with the police or other law enforcement or crime prevention agencies for security purposes. This may involve sending your personal information between different countries, including countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) where controls on data protection may not be as strong as the legal requirements in this country. This may also apply to any sensitive information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities or dietary/religious requirements. If Holland America Line cannot pass your personal information on to the relevant suppliers, whether in the EEA or not, Holland America Line cannot properly affect your booking. For the safety and security of the ship and its Guests,
Holland America Line may operate closed circuit television (CCTV) in certain areas on board the ship during your Cruise. Please be aware, however, that Holland America Line does not undertake to operate all cameras or monitor or record CCTV images at all times. Please be aware that there are photographers and camera crew on board the ship taking photographs and making films for guests to purchase at the end of the Cruise. They are happy to take reasonable steps to avoid filming you where you indicate that this is your preference, but you may be included unless you tell us otherwise and we are unable to guarantee that you will not be included on an incidental basis. Please be aware that calls made to Holland America Line, and calls received from Holland America Line, may be recorded for the purposes of audit, training and the monitoring of services provided by Holland America Line. 72. The personal information you provide to Holland America Line, or which is obtained through your dealings with Holland America Line or other Carnival group cruise brands, will also be used by Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation group companies or by processors on their behalf: to review your dealings with Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation brands including your purchasing and entertainment preferences; to review, develop and improve the cruises and services Carnival offers; for market research purposes and for statistical analysis. This may involve transferring your personal information to Carnival Corporation group companies in the US. 73. Holland America Line is a Carnival plc brand. Carnival plc and Carnival Corporation group companies (including those in the US) may wish to contact you by post, email and/or telephone with news, information and offers from Holland America Line and other Carnival group cruise brands (such as P&O Cruises, Cunard Line, Princess Cruises, Seabourn, Carnival Cruise Lines and Costa Cruises). If you prefer not to be contacted for the purposes set out above please write to us at Customer Data Department, Carnival House, 100 Harbour Parade, Southampton SO15 1ST. If you wish to obtain a copy of the personal information held about you, please write to the above address. Carnival plc may make a charge for supplying this information as permitted by law.
