  • NO Name.Indd
    WHAT’S IN A NAME: VISTA SHIPS REFLECT TRADITION While its newest ship, the ms Noordam, is a reflection of the latest trends and advancements in cruising, Holland America Line has remained dedicated to its Tradition of Excellence and continues to name its ships to reflect a rich seafaring history. Holland America Line’s Vista-class ships are the largest, most advanced and luxurious vessels ever built for the line. The ships of the Vista-class are named after the points of the compass, the ms Zuiderdam (south) was the first Vista-class ship introduced, setting sail in 2002, Oosterdam (east) began service in July 2003, Westerdam (west) began service in April 2004 and the fourth Vista class ship entered service in January 2006 as the ms Noordam (north), completing the compass. Over the years, many of the names of Holland America Line ships have carried historical importance. The following information provides some insight into the history behind the Vista-class ships. ms NOORDAM The new 1,918-passenger ms Noordam is the line’s last Vista-class ship and the fourth Holland America Line vessel to sail with the prestigious name. The first ms Noordam joined the Holland America Line fleet in 1902, sailing the Rotterdam-New York run until being damaged by a mine during World War I. In 1938 the Noordam name was then given to one of two new passenger-cargo ships, which offered exclusively first-class accommodations for 148 passengers. During World War II, the second Noordam was leased to the Americans and refitted to carry troops, cargo and provisions.
