Holland America Line is moving up Oosterdam's Evolution transformation by five weeks, citing strong demand for cruises on the newly reimagined ship.
The revised schedule adds five additional voyages, with itineraries spanning the Mediterranean, Atlantic and Caribbean.
Several previously published voyages from Sept. 11, 2027, to Dec. 9, 2027, have been canceled. The company said affected guests and travel advisors are being contacted directly about their rebooking options.
Oosterdam will undergo its transformation in Marseille, France.
"We're very happy with the unprecedented response we've received to Holland America Evolution, and we're thrilled we can move up Oosterdam's dry dock to meet guest demand," said Beth Bodensteiner, president of Holland America Line.
"Starting earlier allows us to create five additional cruises on the newly reimagined ship. Guests will have more opportunities to enjoy all of the enhancements coming to Oosterdam, from new stateroom and suite categories to the Grand Dutch Café and redesigned Ocean Bar. We're excited to welcome guests aboard as Oosterdam begins this new chapter and to give them the opportunity to be among the first to experience her transformation."
Oosterdam will resume service with a 10-day cruise from Civitavecchia (Rome) to Trieste, Italy, departing Oct. 31, 2027. Guests aboard the sailing will be among the first to experience the updated ship while visiting destinations in Italy, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia.
Four additional cruises include an 11-day Mediterranean voyage from Trieste to Piraeus (Athens), Greece, departing Nov. 10, 2027; a seven-day Mediterranean cruise from Piraeus to Barcelona, Spain, sailing Nov. 21, 2027; a 13-day transatlantic crossing from Barcelona to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, leaving Nov. 28, 2027; and an 11-day Caribbean itinerary roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale departing Dec. 11, 2027.
Guests booked on previously scheduled inaugural cruise and first transatlantic voyage in December 2027 can move to the corresponding new cruises. The new voyages will be open for sale in early October.
