Nieuw Amsterdam - biggest Holland America ship yet?

[daveyboy]

Wanted to know if Holland America's upcoming ship, Nieuw Amsterdam, is going to be their largest yet. Seems like they aren't really pushing for super large ships like some of the other cruise lines have been lately. That might not be a bad thing, but I thought I'd ask. By the way, can't they be a little more original and give the ship a name that they haven't used yet. OK, they inserted the world Nieuw in it, but come on! Plus, they already have a ship named Amsterdam now - is that leaving the fleet or something?
