Another exciting week at TIC. We bring you more amazing industry cruising rates – close to home. Australia, New Zealand, Transpacific and circumnavigating Australia – October to March sailings including Christmas and New Year. There are more substantial industry discounts for TIC from Holland America Line.

This summer Holland America Line is bringing 2 ships down under. We have already introduced you to the very popular Westerdam and her itineraries (so many bookings received to date) and now we have a series of sailings available to you on the Noordam. Holland America, known for its elegance,  is a 5-star cruise line with medium-sized ships (just under 2000 at maximum capacity) and its generous offer to TIC includes suites as well as verandahs. Cruising is about the destinations visited but it is also the unique lifestyle you experience onboard. On Holland America, there are so many onboard activities from which to choose and whatever you do, you will enjoy the pampering service at all levels.

The Noordam brings an interesting Australia Circumnavigation itinerary for 35 days. The whole sailing around Australia begins in Sydney, sails the East Coast northwards, around the Top End, West Coast, South Australia, Tasmania and back to Sydney. If you are interested in doing half you can begin in Sydney and finish in Perth (21 days) or start in Perth and end in Sydney (14 days). In-depth itineraries like these are not common so here is an opportunity for something different – minimal, if any, airfare costs to join your cruise.

There are Christmas and New Year sailings amongst these new offers from HAL. For those who enjoy a longer holiday at sea, the Noordam’s  South Pacific crossing from San Diego is an amazing value and a great itinerary sailing via Hawaii, Christmas Island, Tahiti, Cook Islands, Tonga and Norfolk Island. There are even more options now for Travel Industry Club members.
