 Last week Holland America Line announced a new fare option called Have It All. With this rate, you will get drinks, wifi and more included in the rate on cruises 6 nights or longer with the exception of the World Voyage. Amenities included on 6-9 night sailings $100 Per Stateroom Shore Excursions Credit. Signature Beverage Package for all in the stateroom. One night of specialty dining for first and second guest in the stateroom. Wifi Package for the first and second guest in the stateroom. Amenities Included on 10-20 night sailings All of the above plus an additional $100 Per Stateroom Shore Excursion Credit. Getting the amenities in the cruise fare saves you around 50% compared to purchasing them separately. Now for some, these amenities are not necessary so you still have the option to book your stateroom at the standard rate. "We conducted extensive research with experienced cruisers and travel partners to understand what they find most valuable when purchasing a cruise and the results overwhelmingly pointed toward one simple fare that included our top amenities,” said Gus Antorcha, president of Holland America Line. Earlier this year Celebrity Cruise Line introduced the All Included Fare providing different levels of amenities at different price points. Celebrity and Holland America are both premium brands so not sure if you will see brands like Royal or Carnival offer this type of fare. Have it All will be available to book April 21, 2021.
