The Volendam, meanwhile, embarked on a 74-day voyage to South America and Antarctica. The itinerary includes a complete circumnavigation of the subcontinent, as well as a four-day cruising experience.

During the course of the cruises, the vessels are set to serve over 900,000 meals, Holland America said, in addition to 35,000 specialty coffee drinks, 29,000 gallons of ice cream and 155,000 cocktails.

The company also expects the passengers to consume 81,00 bottles of champagne and wine, with over 1 one million eggs being used by the staffs of the two ships.

The 202 days of cruising will also see over 2,500 live performances by the entertainment teams of the Zuiderdam and the Volendam.
