Fleet of the Holland-America Line

  • Twin screw Steamship “Nieuw Amsterdam”
  • Twin screw Steamship “Noordam”
  • Twin screw Steamship “Ryndam”
  • Twin screw Steamship “Potsdam”
  • Twin screw Steamship “Statendam”

Ranging from 10,500 to 17,500 tons net register, and the New Twin Screw Steamship “Rotterdam” of 24,170 tons Register, 37,190 tons Displacement.

All steamships are of enormous tonnage, and splendidly equipped for the safety and comfort of passengers. They are all provided with the latest improvements, have bilge keels, superb decks, halls, saloons and large staterooms, and are fitted with the Marconi system for wireless telegraphy and the Submarine Signal Receiving Apparatus. They carry the U. S. and Royal Netherlands Mails and maintain a regular weekly service between New York and Rotterdam, stopping both ways at Boulogne-sur-Mer for the landing and embarking of passengers.

For full information, sailings, and rates, apply to the General Passenger Agencies of the Holland-America Line, or to its local agents.

Information for Passengers

Berths and Staterooms should be reserved as soon as possible in order to secure the most favorable location, especially during the summer season, when all available rooms are usually engaged considerable time (sometimes months) previous to departure of the steamship. When applying for accommodations, e-ither by mail or telegraph, the name of steamship, date of departure, number and sex of passengers, and desired class of accommodations, should be stated.

Berths are not considered engaged unless secured by paying a deposit of $ 25.00 per berth for the first cabin and $ 10.00 per berth for the second cabin accommodations The balance of passage money must be paid not later than two weeks before sailing; if this has not been paid on or before that time, the Company reserves the right to resell the allotted accommodations. Deposit moneys are refunded only if notice of cancellation is given not later than two weeks before sailing.

Passengers who do not sail on steamship for which they have engaged accommodations or purchased a ticket, will forfeit fifty percent of the passage money, unless notice is given not later than two weeks previous to sailing.

Return and Prepaid Tickets entitle holders to passage only during the season and for the accommodations for which they have been issued. If used at any other season or for other accommodations than the face value indicates, holders will be required to make additional payment, or will be refunded any eventual difference in accordance with rates and rules in effect.

Return or Prepaid Tickets are good for one year from date of issue and are not transferable. Upon application to one of the Company’s Passenger Offices, they may be extended by paying the difference between the rate in effect at the date of issue and time of sailing, in accordance with the conditions on passage contract.

Return Accommodations may be secured through the Company’s Passenger Offices or Agents. They should be engaged when securing berths for the outward trip, or as soon thereafter as possible. If a passenger is prevented from sailing on a steamship for which return accommodations have been secured, a transfer to an earlier or later steamship can be made by applying to either of the Company’s Offices or Agencies, provided application for the transfer be made not later than two weeks previous to departure of the steamship on which berths had originally been reserved.

If Unused Return Tickets are offered for cancellation, the amount paid for the round trip, less full outgoing fare and agent’s commission, will be refunded against delivery of the return certificate to one of the Company’s General Passenger Offices after authorisation has been received from Company’s General Passenger Office at Rotterdam.

Through Checking of Baggage for Paris. — Baggage of cabin passengers from New York, to Paris via Boulogne-sur-Mer, can be checked through at our docks in Hoboken before embarkation.

All Baggage should be forwarded so as to be delivered at Company’s dock not later than one hour before departure of the steamship. If the baggage is sent in advance, passengers will please inform the HOLLAND-AMERICA Line, by letter stating by what Railroad or Express Company the baggage has been forwarded, whether anything is to be paid for passengers’ account upon receipt of said baggage and by what steamship passengers intend to leave. The baggage must be claimed from the baggagemaster on the pier previous to embarkation, in order to prevent errors.

No baggage will be forwarded unless appropriately labeled and entered in the baggage manifest on the dock.

Steamer Trunks should not be higher than 13 inches, and of the usual width and length, so that they can be placed under the berth or sofa in the stateroom.

Larger Pieces of Baggage are not permitted in the staterooms, but are stowed away in the baggage hold.

All pieces of baggage destined for staterooms must be marked “wanted”, those for baggage hold “not wanted,” and must bear passenger’s name, destination, number of berth and name of steamship; tags may be had at all Company’s offices and agencies or, on board, from the Purser. Eastbound Passengers from the interior should have their baggage checked to the HOLLAND-AMERICA LINE dock, Hoboken, N. J., by the baggage express agent on the train, previous to arrival in New York, Jersey City, etc.

Custom House Examination. — The baggage of passengers leaving the steamship at Boulogne-sur-Mer, will be examined by the French Custom House officers at the Gare Maritime at said port, or, if checked through to Paris in New-York or on board, on arrival at Paris. The examination by the Holland Custom House officials will take place either on board, two or three hours previous to arrival at Rotterdam, or at the Hook of Holland, at the new pier of the HOLLAND-AMERICA LINE, built at the “Hook” in 1903, and which pier may be used as a landing place for passengers and their baggage whenever tide or other circumstances may prevent the steamship from proceeding at once to Rotterdam.

Orders for Delivery of baggage free of charge at the railway depots in Rotterdam and Boulogne-sur*Mer are taken by Company’s employees on board the ship or at the Hook of Holland.

Bicycles, provided properly crated, will be taken as baggage at owner’s risk, at a fixed rate.

Steamer Chairs, of improved construction, may be rented at the different offices of the Company, or on the dock, for one trip, at a fixed rate.

Valuables may be placed in the custody of the Purser during the voyage, without, however, any guarantee or responsibility on the part of the Company. Inflammable or explosive articles are not allowed on board. SS Rotterdam and “Nieuw Amsterdam” are provided with a safe deposit which is at the disposal of passengers.

Arms must be surrendered to the purser during the voyage.

Seats at Table. — Seats at table are allotted immediately after sailing.
