Holland America Line has introduced a new EZpay feature that will give guests more flexibility when paying for their cruise over time.
The cruise line announced Wednesday that the new feature will spread out guests’ cruise balance into equal, interest-free monthly payments leading up to final payment. Guests can opt out at any time without penalty.
Following the initial deposit, EZpay will charge a supplied credit card once a month to pay for the cruise balance in full by the final payment deadline. There are no additional fees. Guests can even choose the date of the monthly charge.
Holland America Line will send confirmation following each payment. Guests can add extra funds to a payment and, afterward, the remaining balance will be recalculated into equal amounts.
Nearly all of Holland America Line’s worldwide itineraries are eligible for EZpay as long as they are not within the final payment deadline, the cruise line said.
Guests looking to take advantage of EZpay can request it when booking through a travel advisor or a representative for the cruise line. You can sign up at any point prior to final payment.
“We continually look for ways to enhance our guests’ experience even before they step foot on one of our ships and EZpay allows the flexibility to pay off their cruise at their own pace,” said Holland America Line president Orlando Ashford in a statement. “Cruising is the best vacation value there is and EZpay makes it possible for our guests to book their dream vacation now and conveniently budget it over an extended period of time.”
Earlier this month, Holland America Line launched a free mobile app allowing guests to personalize their cruise experience from anywhere on the ship.
