MS Koningsdam is Holland America's Pinnacle Class-class flagship, tied for #2 ship in the Holland America fleet by size, built in 2016 and given a technical and cosmetic refresh in early 2023. Across 12 passenger decks, music sets the tone, from piano sing-alongs at Billboard Onboard and live rock hits in the Rolling Stone Rock Room to classical and blues at Lincoln Center Stage BB Kings Blues Club. The World Stage theater wraps its shows in immersive LED screens. Of the 9 dining venues, Pinnacle Grill serves Prime steaks and Rudi's Sel De Mer is a French-inspired seafood brasserie, while Tamarind, Nami Sushi and Tamarind Bar share an Asian-inspired corner aft on deck 10. Wine lovers can blend their own vintage with a sommelier at Blend, and children and teens have Club Hal.
With five sea days on this sailing, there's time for World Stage, Sliding Dome Cover and Nami Sushi.
