VOLENDAM against its type

Built in 1999, it is 11 years older than the median cruise ship on this register, which was built in 2010 (195 vessels with a known build year). At 61,214 gross tonnage it is smaller than 63% of the other 177 cruise ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 7 cruise ships here under the Netherlands flag, 3.5% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 132 other vessels here, 60 of them cruise ships. Holland America Line is linked to 17 vessels on this register. The returns for 2020–2025 all give Rotterdam as port of registry.

Its 17,755 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 43% below the median of 31,269 t among the 200 cruise ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 632.2 kg CO₂, 23% below the type median of 821.3 kg. It logged 1,917 hours at sea against a median of 3,133 hours for its type that year. 8.7% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for cruise ships was 15.1%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2025 (17,755 t) and the lowest 2023 (618 t). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 1,824.8% higher than in 2020, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 66.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 11.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
