Holland America Line to Add Arcadia in 2029
The Vista Class ship will transfer from P&O Cruises as Queen Anne moves from Cunard to P&O Cruises.
Holland America Line plans to add Arcadia to its fleet in 2029, increasing its fleet to 12 ships. The vessel will transfer from P&O Cruises and provide capacity for more than 2,000 guests, according to Holland America Line.
Arcadia is built on the same Vista Class platform as Holland America Line’s Oosterdam, Noordam, Westerdam and Zuiderdam. The cruise line said the addition will provide greater flexibility across its global deployment and serve as another ship for its ongoing Holland America Evolution transformation program. Venues and features planned for Arcadia have not yet been finalized, with decisions expected over the coming months.
As Arcadia moves to Holland America Line, P&O Cruises will receive Queen Anne from sister brand Cunard. The 3,000-passenger ship is scheduled to undergo extensive design changes in 2029 to align it with the P&O Cruises fleet.
