Just six months after recording its largest booking day, Holland America Line surpassed that mark January 16, 2024, to set a new single-day sales record. The January 16 bookings topped the previous record from July 11, 2023, by 18%, making it the biggest sales day in the 150-year history of Holland America Line.

The cruise line also set a record for the week ending January 19, achieving its largest-ever bookings week during a "wave" season, a traditionally high booking period for the cruise industry between January and March.
