Holland America Line knows the trend for savvy travellers is to book holidays well in advance. To encourage those early bookings the line is returning with its popular “Explore 4” savings program that is better than before with four exceptional offers on select 2015 and 2016 sailings.
The “Explore 4” benefits include a free stateroom upgrade and free Pinnacle Grill dinner for guests booking an ocean-view and higher category stateroom, reduced cruise fares for third and fourth guests in the same stateroom on select sailings and 50 percent reduced deposit. Suite bookings also receive a US$300 onboard spending credit per stateroom (US$150 per person) and a free Canaletto dinner in addition to the other four offers. Guests may receive all of the offers when booking a qualified itinerary.
