Fred Olsen Unveils 2027 Cruises with Northern Lights, Morocco & Caribbean Adventures
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has unveiled new autumn and winter adventures for next year, featuring 20 sailings departing between October and December 2027.
Guests will have the opportunity to:
- Witness the Northern Lights in Northern Norway
- Explore the cultures of Morocco and the Mediterranean
- Enjoy a festive escape from Christmas markets to Caribbean island-hopping
Guest demand for shorter, more destination-rich itineraries has seen Fred. Olsen deploy Balmoral on a dedicated Mediterranean program offering fewer sea days and more time to explore iconic and lesser-visited destinations across the Greek islands, Italy, Croatia, and the French and Turkish rivieras.
Four Maiden Calls for Fred. Olsen
The Mediterranean program includes four maiden calls for Fred. Olsen, including:
- Milazzo (Italy)
- Taranto (Italy)
- Golfo Aranci (Sardinia)
- Alanya (Turkey)
Guests will also have the chance to explore many ports that are only accessible to smaller ships, including:
- Mahon (Menorca)
- Propriano (Corsica)
- Ermoupoli (Greece)
- Agios Nikolaos (Greece)
Breadth of Experiences from Shorter Sailings to Longer Voyages
The 2027 cruise programme offers exciting breadth of experiences, from:
- Shorter sailings perfect for those new to cruising or looking for a quick escape
- Longer voyages for those seeking something more immersive
Guests can:
- Soak up the cultural wonders of Morocco
- Explore Europe’s most iconic landmarks, from Rome’s Colosseum to Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia in Barcelona
- Enjoy a shorter-than-usual cruise to Northern Norway going in search of the Northern Lights
- Take a five-night Mystery Cruise for something a little different
- Embark on a longer voyage to enjoy the warmth of the Caribbean in winter
Mediterranean Fly-Cruises Driven by Strong Demand
Fred. Olsen’s Mediterranean fly-cruises are driven by strong demand and take guests straight to the destination, with more time ashore to explore regions such as:
- The Greek islands
- Italy
- Croatia
- The French Riviera
- The Turkish Riviera
One standout itinerary visits six islands in just 10 nights, maximising time ashore and minimising sea days.
Why the 2027 Programme Stands Out
The 2027 programme stands out for several reasons:
- 20 sailings between October-December 2027 covering autumn and winter adventures
- Northern Lights journeys to Northern Norway for a unique winter experience
- Morocco and Mediterranean exploration combining culture, history and cuisine
- Festive escapes from Christmas markets to Caribbean island-hopping
- Dedicated Mediterranean program with Balmoral offering fewer sea days and more exploration time
- Four maiden calls including Milazzo, Taranto, Golfo Aranci and Alanya
- Smaller ship access to ports like Mahon, Propriano, Ermoupoli and Agios Nikolaos
- Shorter and longer voyages catering to both new cruisers and immersive travellers
- Mediterranean fly-cruises taking guests straight to the destination with more time ashore
- Six islands in 10 nights itinerary maximising island exploration
For travellers who want autumn and winter adventures with Northern Lights, Mediterranean culture, Moroccan exploration and Caribbean warmth, Fred. Olsen’s 2027 programme delivers a breadth of experiences perfect for every cruising preference.
