Holland America Line launched a contest on Facebook that will award one fan a seven-day Alaska cruise for four, including two veranda staterooms. The sweepstakes runs through November 30, 2011 and the winner will be selected in December 2011.

To enter the contest, new visitors to Holland America Line’s Facebook page must become fans and answer a few questions to be entered. Existing Holland America Line fans simply fill out the form for their chance to win the cruise. The sweepstakes is limited to legal residents 18 years of age or older from the United States, District of Columbia, Canada — except Quebec — and the United Kingdom.

The contest is just one of the cruise line’s latest Facebook initiatives. To further enhance its interactivity, three new Facebook tabs, Connect, Plan a Cruise and Roll Call, enable Holland America Facebook fans to access the line’s other social media platforms, plan a cruise vacation and find fellow guests sailing on the same cruise.

Using the Connect tab, fans can view Holland America Line videos on YouTube, check the latest Twitter and Holland America Blog posts, and flip through numerous photo albums — all without leaving Facebook. The Connect tab also lets fans create a pre-cruise message to post on their wall, while the Roll Call tab enables fellow travelers on the same upcoming cruise to connect with each other.
