Holland America Line

Your Shipmates

No longer just your grandparents' cruise line, today's Holland America Caribbean sailings attract families and discerning couples, mostly from their late-30s on up. Holidays and summer months are peak periods when you'll find more children in the mix. Comfortable retirees are often still in the majority, particularly on longer cruises. Families cruising together who book five or more cabins receive a fountain-soda package for each family member, Club HAL T-shirts for children who participate in the youth program, a family photo for each stateroom, and either dinner for the entire family in the upscale Pinnacle Grill or complimentary water toys at Half Moon Cay (for Caribbean itineraries that call at the private island). If the group is larger10 cabins or morethe Head-of-Family is recognized with an upgrade from outside stateroom to a veranda cabin. It's the best family deal at sea, and there's no extra charge.
