With the retirement of Black Prince in October 2009, the ship of the Fred. Olsen fleet that operated from northern ports, such as Liverpool and Greenock, her sister-ship Boudicca is scheduled to operate from more regional ports in 2010.
Fred. Olsen offers a choice of cruises from two Scottish ports in 2009 – Black Prince cruises out of Greenock during May and June, while Boudicca is based in Leith from late June to early August. Both ships operate a programme of northerly cruises to Norway, Iceland, the Baltic and the North Cape, as well as cruising closer to home, around the UK and Ireland.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has just launched its latest Captain’s Collection brochure, featuring 64 cruises departing in 2009 at very competitive prices. The cruises include all five ships and a wealth of different destinations.

In line with the falling price of oil in recent weeks, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has reviewed its policy regarding fuel supplements.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has announced it will retire its vessel Black Prince in October 2009. The 441 passenger ship, which was built for the company by Flender Werft in Lubeck in 1966, will operate a series of four Farewell Cruises starting on 9th September from Liverpool, and ending on 16th October in Southampton.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is to introduce a totally smoke free indoors environment on all five vessels in the fleet beginning early in 2009.
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.
