Bruce--Thanks. That makes sense (from Holland America's perspective, anyway). I'll check on the other board. Faels--I'm only searching for 2 right now. I checked the Holland America site and the CruiseCritic search, both show no balcony availability for Glacier Discovery in June 2026.

My family was planning a 2025 Alaskan, either on Princess or Holland America. We had done a bit of research and of the 9 Holland Americ itineraries that fit our schedule, four were sold out of verandahs, which several of us want. After discussion, we agreed to delay to summer 2026. It looks as though those itineraries were released within the last month, but all of the verandahs are sold out on the dates we're considering. Do these just get reserved immediately and eventually released when people cancel, are they really not yet released, and will be later in the year?
