Rotterdam (the seventh HAL ship to carry the name) entered service in July 2021 as the newest Pinnacle-class ship and HAL's current flagship. She operates Caribbean and Panama Canal sailings from Fort Lauderdale in winter and Northern European programmes from Amsterdam in summer.
Rotterdam VII carries the most complete Pinnacle-class product yet built — expanded Music Walk, the Rolling Stone Rock Room, and a refined Pinnacle Suite complex with Club Orange dining and the Neptune Lounge.
She is HAL's designated Grand World Voyage flagship in alternating years with Zuiderdam and consistently sells out the annual circumnavigation years in advance.
