Excerpts from Holland America's Website
about the Zuiderdam

When Holland America's elegant ms Zuiderdam begins her inaugural season December 14, 2002, all eyes will be upon her. For she will be the first of a new class of cruise ships aptly called the Vista Series - forward-looking in both design and spirit. The new ms Zuiderdam is the first of five spacious Vista-class ships from Holland America. With more private, airy verandahs. More ample ocean-view staterooms. More space per guest than any other ship in a fleet already renowned for spacious comfort. And more delight: expanded spa facilities, three sparkling pools, and blissful 7-day cruises through the Eastern Caribbean.
