Hero Cruise Ship Back In Business

Holland America Line’s Volendam has spent the previous six months in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, below constitution to the Metropolis of Rotterdam to deal with Ukrainian households. The ship was a short lived residence for as much as 1,500 refugees by means of the constitution, half of a bigger dedication from the Netherlands to accommodate 50,000 individuals who fled the battle of their homeland. Now, two-and-a-half years after the cruise business pause, Volendam returned to cruising in Italy because the ship embarked friends for a 14-day Holy Land and Historic Kingdoms Explorer itinerary.

Holland America Line held a ribbon-cutting ceremony within the terminal to open embarkation, attended by the ship’s captain and senior officers, with flag-waving fanfare from group members lined as much as greet friends as they boarded.

Following the Holy Land and Historic Kingdoms cruise, the ship will sail 14-day itineraries to Greece, Turkey, Italy, Croatia and Montenegro. In late October, the ship will reposition to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to supply a 28-day Amazon Explorer voyage, adopted by a collection of Caribbean cruises. In January 2023, the ship departs on the 74-day Grand South America and Antarctica Voyage that circumnavigates the continent.
