Guests booked on a cancelled Rotterdam sailing, meanwhile, will be automatically rebooked onto an equivalent sailing in 2022 at the 2021 fare paid, or they can choose to receive 110% FCC.

Any guest on a cancelled voyage also can request a full refund of all money paid to Holland America Line.

Refunds are available to all guests booked on a cancelled cruise.
