MS Noordam is a Vista Class-class ship built in 2006 and the #6 ship in the Holland America fleet by size, with 11 passenger decks. Its 2019 Signature of Excellence overhaul was followed by 2024 work that added Starlink for steadier connectivity in places like Alaska and the South Pacific. Evenings revolve around music: BB Kings Blues Club brings Memphis blues, Billboard Onboard hosts piano sing-alongs, Lincoln Center Stage offers classical and chamber music, and the World Stage wraps its shows in sweeping LED screens. For dinner, Pinnacle Grill serves USDA Prime steaks and seafood, while Canaletto does Italian dishes made for sharing. The Lido Pool sits beneath the Sliding Dome Cover, adults can retreat to the Sea View Pool at the aft, and kids and teens have Club Hal.

With five sea days on this sailing, there's time for Lido Pool, Northern Lights Nightclub and World Stage.
