Holland America Line has confirmed its 2,666-passenger Nieuw Statendam will offer cruises out of Dover again in 2026.
The Pinnacle Class ship will operate 10 roundtrip UK sailings between April and October, cruising to the Canaries, British isles, Arctic Circle, North Cape, Norwegian fjords, Baltics and Scandinavia.
Holland America’s Rotterdam will be positioned in northern Europe alongside Nieuw Statendam during the 2026 season. The programme includes more seven-day cruises to Norway’s fjords as well as seven-day cruises between Reykjavik, Iceland and Rotterdam.
A series of 14-day Baltic and Scandinavian Capitals cruises are also available, many of which feature overnights or late-night calls in Oslo, as well as ports in Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Denmark.
HAL’s northern Europe season will include four new ports: Aberdeen; Kalundborg, Denmark; and Odda, Norway, aboard Rotterdam, and Portsmouth aboard Nieuw Statendam.
Elsewhere in Europe, the 1,964-guest Oosterdam will offer new seven-day Mediterranean cruises, including Mediterranean Marvels: Ancient Egypt & Greek Isles, Iberian Idyll: Spain & Morocco, and ‘Mediterranean Splendor: Corfu, Sicily & Spai’.
These itineraries can be combined, offering a series of 28 Collectors’ Voyages spanning from 14 to 27 days, with up to 21 days with no repeat ports.
As part of the recently announced Celestial Cruises, the 1,964-guest Zuiderdam will sail roundtrip from Boston on a 17, 18 or 35-day Voyage of the Vikings: Solar Eclipse itinerary. The cruise takes in up to 19 ports across eight countries.
For a limited time, guests booking a 2026 Europe cruise with ‘Have It All’ will receive an early bird booking bonus, which includes the Elite drinks package, up to three nights specialty dining, up to $300 shore excursion credit, the premium Wi-Fi package and prepaid crew appreciation.
