xlxo Posted May 6, 2020 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2020 https://www.hollandamerica.com/blog/topics/news/holland-america-line-extends-its-pause-of-cruise-operations/?linkId=88080163 With travel restrictions continuing for the near future due to global health concerns, Holland America Line has decided to extend its pause of global cruise operations and cancel all Alaska, Europe and Canada/New England cruises for 2020. In addition, Amsterdam will not operate the 79-day Grand Africa Voyage from Boston, Massachusetts, to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, that was scheduled to depart on Oct. 3, 2020. Holland America Line had previously cancelled all 2020 Land+Sea Journeys, which combine an Alaska cruise with an overland tour to Denali and the Yukon. “As we continue to navigate through these unprecedented and challenging times, the best decision right now is to extend our pause in cruise operations into the fall,” said Orlando Ashford, president of Holland America Line. “While this is very disappointing and we never want to let our guests down, as soon as it makes sense we will be back cruising again, giving our guests the memorable travel experiences they continue to dream about.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ski ww Posted May 7, 2020 #5 Share Posted May 7, 2020 It's good to see that they finally made a decision, now people don't have to sit around and wait what is happening to their cruise this summer/fall. That has to be a big hit for HAL in their pocket book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
