For the very first time, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering guests the chance to visit film locations featured in top blockbusters and hit TV shows, including James Bond’s Skyfall, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Braveheart, Game of Thrones, Broadchurch and Poldark, on a ‘UK set-jetting’ cruise, entitled ‘UK Scenes from the Silver Screen’
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering guests an unbeatable deal following the recent launch of its new 2017/18 cruise programme, whereby guests booking a new 2017/18 cruise – from just two nights and above – are entitled to a massive 50% discount on a cruise holiday of up to 32 nights in Q4 of 2016…an opportunity far too good to miss!
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines will be commencing its first-ever cruise season from Falmouth in April 2016, offering two unique, great-value holidays on board its elegant 880-guest ship, Boudicca. Guests can choose from a 12-night ‘Canary Islands & Portugal’ cruise, or a 10-night ‘Around the UK’ sailing from Land's End to John O’Groats.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is proud to be supporting the work of cancer charity Sail 4 Cancer, which provides much-needed respite holidays for cancer sufferers, their families and carers. Since the partnership began in 2009, the charity has sent 168 cancer patients and their family members on Fred. Olsen cruise holidays, and the cruise line has donated nearly £12,000 in charitable fundraising.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is reinforcing its reputation for the greatest choice of ex-UK departures to cruise guests in 2017/18, with its fleet of four smaller, more intimate ships – Balmoral, Braemar, Boudicca and Black Watch – sailing from ten convenient regional ports: Southampton, Dover, Tilbury, Harwich, Falmouth, Liverpool, Newcastle, Greenock (Glasgow), Rosyth (Edinburgh) and Belfast.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines saw its most successful sales day on record on Tuesday 15th March 2016, following the launch of its exciting new 2017/18 cruise programme to its top tier of Oceans loyalty club members. Nearly 50% more revenue and 31% more guests were booked on the first day of Fred. Olsen’s new 2017/18 cruise itineraries going on sale than on the first ‘on sale’ day last year.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines was delighted to unveil its new range of 2017/18 worldwide itineraries in the elegant setting of The Balmoral Hotel, Edinburgh, on 10th March 2016, at its first-ever dedicated Scottish Launch event.
In its new 2017/18 cruise programme, on general sale from 18th March 2016, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has highlighted the following ‘Top Ten’ experiences, representing outstanding destinations and a ‘different way’ to see the world!
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is excited to announce that, in 2017/18, its fleet of four smaller, more intimate ships – Balmoral, Braemar, Boudicca and Black Watch – will be visiting no fewer than 220 destinations in 70 countries around the globe, plus 118 areas of scenic cruising. The new 2017/18 itineraries will go on general sale from 18th March 2016.
To make cruising with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines even more attractive to solo travellers, the cruise line has introduced some great ‘twin-for-sole occupancy’ discounts on a range of cruise itineraries in 2016/17. These special deals mean that a solo guest, occupying a twin cabin, will either pay no single-supplement or receive up to 50% off the supplement cost, depending on the selected cruise
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines gave its top agents - the ‘Viking Masters’ - a ‘fam trip’ with a difference from 29th January to 4th February 2016, with visits to Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Durban, in South Africa.
At Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines we are very proud of our smaller ships – Bolette, Borealis and Balmoral - and the imaginative and unusual itineraries they allow us to offer. Every cruise is hand-crafted from scratch by our team of in-house Journey Planners to make sure you are not only visiting the best destinations, but at the best time to experience them.
For us, it’s not just about where we go but how we take you there. We put as much time into planning scenic cruising as we do in choosing the destinations themselves. On board, our Signature Experiences showcase the history, culture, nature and flavours of the destinations you’ll visit – from Treats of the Region, where you can enjoy local delicacies, to our Sky at Sea star-gazing sessions where you can relax with a hot toddy out on deck while our astronomer talks you through the night sky.
Plus, with each ship carrying 1,300 guests or less, our ships are small enough for us to offer a warm, friendly and personal service where nothing is ever too much trouble, as we visit a host of exciting ports in every corner of the globe.
