Faq Question: What if I have food allergies?
Faq Answer: For guests with food intolerances or allergies that are not life-threatening, please contact our Ship Services Department at (800) 541-1576. For guests with life-threatening food allergies, we ask that guests provide detailed information to our Guest Accessibility Department by completing a Special Requirements Information (SRI) Form. Guests should indicate on this form which foods may potentially cause a severe reaction. Guests with a variety of severe food allergies sail with Holland America Line regularly. Our galley staff on board is accustomed to and experienced in dealing with these types of needs. The galley itself has many different areas of food preparation, which can help reduce the possibility of cross-contamination. It is important to note, however, that meals are prepared in mass quantities on board, thus there is always the possibility of some cross-contamination. As such, Holland America Line cannot guarantee that a guest will not come in contact with those items. Although our Guest Accessibility Department will provide the ship with an advance notice of all food allergies detailed on an SRI submitted to them, it is recommended that guests also contact the Dining Room Manager upon boarding to review the details of these special dietary needs.

Faq Question: Is there a dress code?
Faq Answer: Yes. Shirts/cover-ups and footwear are always required indoors. We also have several levels of suggested attire in the evenings

When suggested attire is Casual smart casual attire is appropriate. Shorts, pool/beachwear, distressed jeans and men’s tank tops are best left to the daytime and are not permitted in table service restaurants.

When suggested attire is Dressy we take it up a notch and recommend slacks, skirts, dresses, blouses, collared shirts and jackets.

faq3

Faq Question: What about ladies’ dressy attire?
Faq Answer: Dressy attire is appropriate. Dresses, skirts, and slacks are all acceptable.

faq4

Faq Question: Are a jacket and tie required for men?
Faq Answer: A jacket and tie is the preferred attire in all fine dining restaurants on Dressy nights, though this is not required. Guests without a jacket and tie have always been allowed in fine dining restaurants, so this is not a policy change.

faq5

Faq Question: Are jeans allowed?
Faq Answer: Jeans without holes, tears or embroidery are welcome on most evenings in all restaurants, but on Dressy nights jeans are only allowed in casual dining restaurants.

faq6

Faq Question: Can I wear shorts in the main dining room?
Faq Answer: Not at dinner. The dining room is considered a fine dining restaurant and shorts are not permitted.

faq7

Faq Question

Is the dress code the same on Grand Voyage?

Faq Answer

Yes. The policy applies to all Holland America Line voyages. On Grand Voyages we also add an occasional Formal night where suits and dresses are recommended.

faq8

Faq Question: Why the change from “Gala Attire” to “Dressy”?
Faq Answer: To many, the term Gala was either confusing or misleading, implying a specific type of dress (black tie or tuxedo) which has never been a requirement. We felt the term Dressy was a bit less stuffy and a bit more festive, which is what a dressy evening should be: a chance to get dressed up and enjoy the evening while still being comfortable.

faq9

Faq Question: What dining options are available for kids?
Faq Answer: Children are welcome in any of our dining venues. A special kids’ menu is available at each venue, and we can accommodate a variety of dining restrictions and preferences. Our kids’ menu includes favorites such as pizza, chicken strips and mac and cheese, as well as salads, soups and fresh fruit. Menu items from the daily menu are also available in half portions upon request. And if your child is celebrating a birthday on board, ask our dining crew for a special, personal-sized cake! Children 12 or under receive half off in our specialty dining restaurants or can select items from the kids’ menu for free.
