HAL Celebrates 100 Years in the Caribbean with Limited-Time Deals
by Marsha Mowers
In celebration of Holland America Line’s Veendam II’s first sailing from New York in February 1926, the cruise line is offering travellers a limited-time anniversary promotion that includes a $100 onboard credit for two.
From Feb. 3–9, 2026, travellers who book select Caribbean sailings departing through April 30 will receive up to 50 per cent off fares, along with a $50 per guest onboard credit through the Free Fares for Kids offer (available on select sailings for guests 18 and under).

“Our first Caribbean voyage in 1926 marked a defining moment for Holland America Line and for the evolution of modern cruise travel,” said Beth Bodensteiner, president of Holland America Line. “As we celebrate 100 years, we wanted to offer something both meaningful and memorable — $100 for 100 years, with added ways for guests to save.
It’s our way of honouring the milestone while inviting travellers to experience what sets us apart in the Caribbean: perfectly sized ships designed for guests to relax and connect, a premium onboard experience and time ashore at our private island RelaxAway, Half Moon Cay.”
