Holland America exciting news!

Holland America just announced this:

On Tuesday, September 12, you can secure your next cruise or cruise tour with a $1 deposit and save 60% on Shore Excursions, Specialty Dining, free prepaid Crew Appreciation, our Low-Price Guarantee, and free upgrades to the Elite Beverage Package and Premium Wi-Fi. 

With more than 500 journeys to choose from, they’re sure to have the time of their lives in Alaska, Europe and beyond with Holland America Line.

I don't normally publicize this, but with the rising cruise and air travel prices, if you are even thinking of a cruise next year, this will secure the price.  I've watched prices continually rise and rarely do they ever go down.  This year by mid-August all Alaska cruises were sold out!  Bookings for next year are strong!

If you are interested, email or DM me and I'll hold a spot for you on your next cruise vacation.  Holland America has three ships doing 7 days return Vancouver.  They are all nice ships but my favorite is the Koningsdam.  I booked the Koningsdam for April 5, 2025 from Vancouver to Honolulu for 17 nights return.  I did it to secure the price and the room I wanted.  I always get a refundable deposit because things change.

I doubt any long cruise will be offered on the $1 deposit but I would hope Alaska will be.  The list will be out tomorrow.  I guess I'll be checking my calendar.  Anyone want to join me?
