Creating lasting memories in destinations around the world
Discover the world on Fred. Olsen’s smaller, friendlier ships
The
Chairman’s
Welcome
I am very pleased to introduce our carefully-crafted new fly-cruise programme for
2020/21. Inspired by my passion for exploring the world, our new collection gives you
the opportunity to explore some of the world’s most inspirational destinations with ease.
A particular highlight for me is the chance for an in-depth exploration of Japan.
You’ll have the opportunity to really delve under the skin of this amazing country,
experiencing the culture, history and local way of life.
Each year, I travel with our ships to far-flung destinations. I ensure our ships always deliver
first-class service and give you an authentic insight into the culture and traditions of the
communities you are exploring – so you return home with long-lasting memories.
Whichever part of the world you choose to explore with us, may I wish you the
holiday of a lifetime.
Fred. Olsen Jnr.

Fly-Cruises
2020-21
Our 2020-21 programme of Fly-Cruises encompasses
inspirational destinations in continents across the globe.
Each itinerary is a journey of discovery rich in enlightening
and exhilarating experiences. There is a world of choice
within the pages of this brochure; step aboard our smaller,
friendlier ships for an unforgettable holiday you’ll treasure
for years to come.
Japan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore –
including a visit timed specially to celebrate New Year’s Eve
– India, South Africa and the Indian Ocean islands are just
some of the countless highlights from Boudicca’s 2020-21
adventures. Sister ship Black Watch will encounter iconic
and idyllic highlights in Australia, French Polynesia, the Far
East and more.
You could opt to join Balmoral to explore a part of
intoxicating South America, from the glistening fjords of
Chile, to the landmarks of Rio de Janeiro, to the endemic
wildlife of the Falklands. Or perhaps you may find a
Braemar Caribbean cruise just the ticket. Take exploration
to the next level as you uncover the authentic essence of
islands spanning the entire region: the Windward Islands
(including St Lucia, Grenada and Barbados); the Leeward
Islands (including Tortola, St Kitts, St Maarten and Antigua);
and the Leeward Antilles (Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao).
These classic destinations are often complemented by the
likes of Cuba, Mexico and Colombia, too. There is a variety
of durations to choose from throughout this brochure,
including a selection of longer adventures (42 nights or
more) that pack in even more highlights.
At Fred. Olsen we make it easy every step of the way. With a
choice of airports located conveniently around the UK, we
can take you straight to all these fascinating destinations
with ease. Whichever region you choose to explore, our
caring staff will ensure you feel welcome from the moment
you step on board. You’re in for a special experience,
whether you’re a first-time cruiser or a Fred. Olsen regular.
Fred. Olsen’s Brexit Promise
We’re so confident that Brexit won’t affect your Fred. Olsen
cruise, should the cruise be cancelled due to the UK
leaving the EU, we will give you a full refund and a free
cruise♦. Rest assured, you can’t lose. With Fred. Olsen you
can always book with confidence. See the back cover for

Award-winning cruises
Our friendly staff and crews always work hard to give you the holiday
of a lifetime. Pleasingly, this has been recognised by Fred. Olsen winning
a number of high-profile awards over the past few years, including ‘Best
Ocean Cruise Line’ for three years running at the Silver Travel Awards and
Cruise Critic’s ‘Best for Itineraries’ for four consecutive years.
Equally reassuring is that from over 32,000 independent guest reviews on
Feefo, Fred. Olsen has a guest experience rating of 4.5 out of 5; the latest
reviews can be found on our website. Meanwhile, from over 14,000 guest
surveys in 2018, for destinations, dining and overall experience the average
rating was 90% and above. The highest score of all was achieved by the
crew – 97% of guests rated them as ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’. Perhaps that’s
why people who try us once so often choose to cruise with us again.

More than half the guests who sail on our ocean-going ships choose our
All Inclusive Drinks Upgrade, which covers a selection of house beers,
wines, spirits and soft drinks, all for one fixed price. From only £19 per
