Are children charged a full fare on Holland America Line?
Children can cruise at a reduced rate when traveling with two adults in the same stateroom.
When you plan a family sailing with Holland America Line, pricing is typically built around who is sharing one stateroom, and that is where extra savings may appear. On select cruises, you may also see our Kids Cruise Free promotion.
Taxes and fees apply to every guest, including children, so you will still see those line items in the breakdown. For effortless clarity, the right-hand “Your Summary” area shows the full fare details for each guest before checkout.
How to add children or infants during booking
You can add children while you are selecting your stateroom, which keeps everything in one place:
Children (ages 2 to 17): Select ‘Edit’ under Number of Guests, then add the number of children.
Infants (ages 6 to 24 months): Select ‘Edit’ under Number of Guests, then add the number of infants.
