Holland America: 153 years old, 15 entries in our inventory, and four ships that have gone

This is the oldest house we carry. It was born in 1873 as the Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Stoomvaart Maatschappij, in Rotterdam, carrying passengers and freight to North America. It is now based in Seattle, and Carnival Corporation bought it in 1989. That history still shows in how the fleet works: long crossings rather than repeated weeks.

Four entries of fifteen no longer sail for the line

ms Amsterdam became Bolette and the 1997 Rotterdam became Borealis, both at Fred. Olsen in 2020. ms Maasdam and ms Veendam were sold the same year to the Greek operator Seajets. ms Prinsendam went to Phoenix Reisen in 2019. The four carry no departure on our calendar, and their pages stay online because you still look for them.

One name, two ships — the Rotterdam trap

The ms Rotterdam we sell is the 2020 ship, the seventh in the line's history to carry that name, and she is our busiest with 226 records. The one sold to Fred. Olsen was the sixth, in service from 1997. Two ships, one name, twenty-three years apart. That is exactly why we keep pages online for ships that have left.

What we carry, measured

Fifteen entries, 729 distinct departures across 329 dates and 749 routes, from 12 July 2026 to 9 December 2028. More routes than departures: this house's long voyages are also sold in segments, and one departure can carry several tracks depending on where you join and where you leave. ms Koningsdam follows with 174 records, ms Oosterdam with 152 and ms Nieuw Statendam with 145.

Who it suits, and who it does not

The line programmes a world cruise every year, and that is what it does best. But a long voyage is not a long cruise: you have to like sea days, accept an older crowd and a slow rhythm. If you want animation and children aboard, look elsewhere in our catalogue. We will not say what the fare covers: the formula changes from one departure to the next, and we have not measured it. Ask for the written list of the exact departure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fifteen entries in our inventory — 15 exactly — and 729 distinct departures across 329 dates and 749 routes, from 12 July 2026 to 9 December 2028.
No, four no longer sail for the line. ms Amsterdam became Bolette and the 1997 Rotterdam became Borealis, both at Fred. Olsen in 2020. ms Maasdam and ms Veendam were sold the same year to the Greek operator Seajets. ms Prinsendam went to Phoenix Reisen in 2019.
Yes, and that is the name trap. The ms Rotterdam we sell is the 2020 ship, the seventh in the line's history to carry that name, and she is our busiest with 226 records. The one sold to Fred. Olsen was the sixth, in service from 1997. Two ships, one name.
Because this house's long voyages are also sold in segments: one departure can carry several tracks depending on where you join and where you leave. It is the signature of a fleet that makes long crossings rather than repeated weeks.
From 1873, as the Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Stoomvaart Maatschappij, in Rotterdam, carrying passengers and freight to North America. It is the oldest house we carry. It is now based in Seattle, and Carnival Corporation bought it in 1989.
It is what this fleet does best, and it programmes a world cruise every year. But a long voyage is not a long cruise: you have to like sea days, accept an older crowd and a slow rhythm. Tell your advisor what you are after before looking at dates.
ms Rotterdam with 226 records, ms Koningsdam with 174, ms Oosterdam with 152, then ms Nieuw Amsterdam and ms Nieuw Statendam at 145 each.
We will not say it in the line's place. What the fare covers changes here from one departure, market and cabin grade to the next, and we have not measured it departure by departure. Ask your advisor for the written list of the exact departure before booking, not after.
One ship on one date. If the same ship leaves on the same day, that is one departure, not two. Our database holds more records than departures, and what we publish is the number of departures.
No. Everything given here — number of hulls, number of departures, dates, routes — comes from OUR inventory, measured on 31 August. A zero with us is not a zero with them.
Often, yes. Your advisor can look beyond what appears here. The online catalogue is a way in, not the limit of what exists.
It depends on the departure and the market, not on the line. If French matters to you, say so before booking: it is checked departure by departure.
Yes, and it happens often in this trade: a line reuses the name of a ship it sold for a new hull. That is why we keep pages online for ships that have left, with what became of them. Without those, a search leads to the wrong ship.
On small ships, yes: few cabins, and the best go early. On large ones it is the cabin's location rather than the space itself that is decided early. Talk cancellation terms through with your advisor before you decide.
Your agency, and it alone. Voyages AquaTerra operates under a licence from Quebec's Office de la protection du consommateur, your payments pass through a trust account, and the compensation fund for travel agency clients covers your departure. That holds whichever line you choose.
