SEATTLE — To help beat the currency exchange rate, Holland America Line has launched a ‘Canada Super Sale’ featuring savings of up to 20% on select cruises.
Running through 2022, the sale is valid on select 2022 Alaska, Canada and New England, Pacific Coast, Hawaii and Panama Canal cruises that sail to or from a Canadian homeport (Vancouver, Montreal or Quebec City). Cruises to Mexico roundtrip from San Diego, California are also included.
“With travel opening up Canadians are looking to cruise, but the current exchange rate can make that challenging,” said Beth Bodensteiner, chief commercial officer of Holland America Line. “With our Canada Super Sale, a Holland America Line cruise is more accessible to our Canadian guests, and we’re featuring a variety of destinations that include one of our Canadian homeports so air travel also is cost-efficient. We look forward to welcoming more of our neighbors to the north onboard.”
ALASKA
From May through September 2022, guests can cruise on Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam or Zuiderdam to Alaska during the cruise line’s 75th anniversary in the Great Land.
