Holland America rewards frequent cruisers
SEATTLE – Holland America Line’s Mariner Society Rewards programme provides past guests with new benefits, including onboard discounts while sailing, special rates on select cruises and reduced or free third and fourth rates when booking future cruises.
Benefits are tiered and reflect a guest’s cruise history.
Based on past cruises recorded as cruise days, members now enjoy Star memberships with four different levels.
Guests automatically collect additional cruise day credits based on their onboard spending or through the purchase of one of the premium line’s suite options.
Guests who complete their initial cruise with Holland America Line are enrolled in the Mariner Society’s first level, earning cruise days towards future cruises.
Two Star and Three Mariners earn additional privileges while those with 200 cruise days earned move to Four-Star status.
Four Star Mariners enjoy the benefits of all Star levels below and the bonus of free fare for third and fourth guests on select sailings; complimentary wine tasting and laundry/pressing; a 50 percent discount on all wine packages, mini-bar purchases; priority tender service and check-in; and priority shore excursion pre-booking.
The new Mariner Society Rewards programme will roll out to the entire fleet by October 18.
