A 94-day trans-Pacific voyage operated by Holland America Line is returning after a decade in 2024.
The departure from the US west coast to Australia and New Zealand comes as the line continues to bolster its longer itineraries departing from North America.
The voyage by the ship Volendam is scheduled to depart from San Diego on January 3, 2024.
The cruise includes 43 ports of call, including 17 around the Australian continent, overnight calls in Fremantle, Sydney, Auckland and Papeete in Tahiti and evening departures from Honolulu and Brisbane.
Two shorter segments are available – 58 days from San Diego to Sydney and 36 days from Sydney to San Diego.
A 3% discount is available for those booking the full 94-day cruise along with amenities valued at up to $4,770 per person, according to the company.
Chief commercial officer Beth Bodensteiner said: “Australia continues to be a sought-after cruising destination, and by offering it as a Grand Voyage we’re able to take our time and feature other beautiful locales like the islands of the South Pacific, New Zealand and the Great Barrier Reef.
“It’s been more than 10 years since we’ve offered this Grand Voyage itinerary, and we listened to our guests who requested that we bring it back.
