Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines launches new 'Worldwide Cruises' Brochure for 2013/14

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has launched its new brochure of 'Worldwide Cruises' for 2013/14, on sale from 27th June 2012.

2012-08-10

August 10, 2012 (Press-News.org) The brochure features a comprehensive programme of ex-UK cruises, from early 2013 to Spring 2014, aboard the cruise line's fleet of four smaller, traditional style ships - Balmoral, Braemar, Boudicca and Black Watch. The itineraries are truly international, with cruises visiting a total of 240 different ports, in 77 countries and islands, worldwide. Of these ports, there are no fewer than 12 brand new or 'maiden' ports over the cruise season.

Fred. Olsen's new 2013/14 programme includes an enormous choice of cruises, ranging from a mini-cruise of just two nights, to an epic world 'Grand Voyage'; the longest-ever undertaken by the cruise line is Black Watch's 'World Cruise' of 114 nights, departing in January 2014.

New to Fred. Olsen for the 2013/14 cruise season are:

- Haugesund, Norway
- Bronnovsund, Norway
- Yangon, former capital of Burma (now Myanmar)
- Osaka, Japan
- Hiroshima, Japan
- Nawiliwili, Hawaii
- Peurto Vallarta , Mexico
- Boulogne, France
- Vaasa, Sweden
- Húsavik, Iceland
- Townsville, Australia
- Melilla, a Spanish enclave in Morocco

Nathan Philpot, Sales and Marketing Director for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

"Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is renowned for offering a wide choice of regional ex-UK departures, and for 2013/14 there will be an even greater choice than ever, with the addition of three new convenient departure ports: Belfast, Harwich, and a welcome return to Liverpool.

"These ports join the existing line-up of Dover, Southampton, Portsmouth, Newcastle (Port of Tyne), Greenock (Glasgow) and Rosyth (Edinburgh), meaning that 90% of the UK population will be within an hour's drive of a Fred. Olsen departure port."

In addition to the great choice of ex-UK cruises, Fred. Olsen's 2013/14 programme includes the cruise line's first-ever season of Canaries fly-cruises, with Braemar based in Tenerife for a winter season in 2013/14, offering exotic departures to the Canary Islands, Cape Verde and West Africa.

Cruise prices for the 2013/14 programme start from GBP199 per person, for a two-night mini cruise on Boudicca, D1324, departing from Belfast on 15th October 2013, visiting Liverpool, and returning to Belfast. The price is based on two adults sharing an inside, twin cabin Grade 'I'.

Starting price for the longest cruise in the programme, Black Watch's 114-night 'Australia & South America World Cruise', W1401, departing from Southampton on 14th January 2014, is GBP9,399 per person, based on two adults sharing an inside, twin cabin Grade 'I'.

Cruise prices include ensuite accommodation, all meals and entertainment on board, and port taxes.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Line operates in the UK with four intimately sized ships for a more personal cruising experience.
