Holland America Have It All: Is It Worth It for Australians?
Join Shane as he breaks down Holland America Line's Have It All package for Australian cruisers and answers the big question: is Have It All actually worth paying for? 👉 Search Holland America cruises: https://reserve.swblack.com.au/swift/cruise?siid=1180897&lang=7&cruiseline=5&destinationtype=All&sortColumn=departureDate&sortOrder=asc 🚢 Holland America's Have It All package bundles drinks, Wi-Fi, specialty dining and shore excursion credit into one package. For Australians, the standard pre-cruise price is currently AU$90 per person, per day, but whether that's good value depends heavily on how you actually cruise. In this video, I break down exactly what you get with Have It All, what each inclusion is really worth and the types of cruisers who are most likely to get their money's worth. What Does Holland America Have It All Include? 🍹 Signature Beverage Package Enjoy cocktails, wine, beer, spirits, specialty coffees, mocktails and soft drinks, with eligible drinks valued at up to US$12 each and a limit of up to 15 beverages per day. 📶 Surf Wi-Fi Stay connected for everyday browsing, messaging, email and social media while you're onboard. 🍽️ Specialty Dining Depending on the length of your cruise, Have It All includes up to three specialty dining experiences at venues such as Pinnacle Grill, Canaletto, Tamarind and Sel de Mer, where available. 🌎 Shore Excursion Credit Receive up to US$300 per person in shore excursion credit, depending on the length of your cruise. How the Benefits Change by Cruise Length 🚢 4 to 9 days: Up to US$100 shore excursion credit per person 1 specialty dining night Signature Beverage Package Surf Wi-Fi 🚢 10 to 20 days: Up to US$200 shore excursion credit per person 2 specialty dining nights Signature Beverage Package Surf Wi-Fi 🚢 21+ days: Up to US$300 shore excursion credit per person 3 specialty dining nights Signature Beverage Package Surf Wi-Fi In the video, I look beyond the headline inclusions and work through the value of the package from an Australian perspective. Is it worth paying for if you only have a couple of drinks each day? How much value are you actually getting from the Wi-Fi, specialty dining and shore excursion credits? And most importantly, when are you better off skipping Have It All and simply paying for what you use? 💡 Current Have It All Offer Holland America currently lists Have It All at AU$90 per person, per day when purchased pre-cruise. For eligible sailings between July 2026 and February 2027, Have It All is currently available for AU$85 per person, per day. Pricing and inclusions can change, so always check the applicable fare and terms for your particular sailing before booking. So, Is Have It All Worth It? For the right cruiser, Have It All can offer excellent value, particularly if you'll use the drinks package, Wi-Fi, specialty dining and shore excursion credit anyway. But it isn't automatically the best choice for everyone. Watch the full video before adding Have It All to your Holland America cruise and work out whether the numbers actually stack up for the way you travel. 📌 Do you normally book Have It All when cruising with Holland America?
