Holland America Line has opened bookings for its 2026 Alaska cruise season.

From April through September, six ships will offer a variety of itineraries ranging from seven to 28 days, featuring glacier viewings, wildlife sightings, cultural programming and destination-focused dining.

“We continue to build an Alaska program that is unlike any other in the industry, that is deeply immersive, putting a spotlight on all the splendor that brings cruisers to Alaska,” said Dan Rough, vice president of revenue management for Holland America Line. “Whether it’s talking to a park ranger while observing a glacier calve in Glacier Bay, joining a whale-watching tour or enjoying the freshest local fish that was just brought on board, we want our guests to return home from vacation feeling inspired.”

Guests can sail roundtrip from Seattle, Washington; Vancouver, British Columbia; or between Vancouver and Whittier (Anchorage), Alaska. Highlights include the monthlong “Alaska Arctic Circle Solstice” cruise and a new 14-day roundtrip option from Seattle.
