Traditional all passenger ships of the HAL carry a Dutch name with the "- dam" suffix. At the time the company operated freighters these ships were given the "-dijk" suffix to their Dutch names. |

| May 4-2019 De Oosterdam moest met zijn kont tegen het al aangemeerde Nieuw Amsterdam komen te liggen, in het Canadese Vancouver. Bij het ‘inparkeren’ ging het mis: de Oosterdam raakte de Nieuw Amsterdam, waardoor zes balkonhutten van het laatstgenoemde schip beschadigd raakten. De schade aan de Oosterdam is aanzienlijk kleiner. Bij het ongeval zijn geen gewonden gevallen.Volgens de HAL heeft de ‘familiebotsing’ geen gevolgen voor de zeevaardigheid van beide schepen, de schade beperkte zich tot ver boven de waterlijn. |
