Read moreHow our discounts work
On all cruises we set aside a number of cabins within each level at a discounted fare, with the highest discount of 35% for ocean cruises and 25% for river cruises available on selected levels. These cabins are sold on a first come, first served basis. As cabins are sold, the discount begins to reduce, and continues to reduce until those selected cabins are sold.
This means that the earlier you book, the higher the chance of securing a greater discount. Our price panels clearly show the full cruise price, along with the current discount fare.
Please note: During busy periods for holiday bookings, the early booking discount can reduce rapidly. We recommend that you book early to benefit from the best booking discounts and to secure your preferred cabin.
When promoting new cruises for the first time, we contact customers on our Advanced Registration list first, allowing then to secure the cabin of their choice and benefit from the best savings. Our brochures are then sent out to loyalty club members first, followed by past cruise goers and then everyone else.

Explore Norway’s fjords
Enjoy a scenic 7-night cruise to Norway in 2026 and take time to appreciate the incredible natural scenery under the light of the summer sun. Nestled on the edge of Gandsfjord, visit Sandnes, and perhaps learn more about the history of the region at its combined museum and science centre in the heart of the city. From here, you can also venture to the city of Stavanger where the cobbled lanes of the old town are lined with white-painted wooden cottages and boutique shops.
Enjoy a scenic cruise to Eidfjord, along the Hardangerfjord – the ‘Queen of Fjords’. Set at the head of the fjord, Eidfjord is surrounded by towering mountains and cascading waterfalls. Arguably, the most impressive of which is the Vøringsfossen, a thundering waterfall surrounded by walkways offering different views of this natural spectacle which tumbles some 182 metres into the fjord below.
Continue your cruise across Hardangerfjord to Ulvik, situated on the Ulvikafjord, surrounded by a mountainous landscape that includes fruit orchards and verdant pastures. A variety of marked hiking trails through the area offer the ideal opportunity to see more of the incredible surrounding scenery. Finally, your exploration of Norway’s fjords concludes with a visit to historic Bergen, where the waterfront, UNESCO-listed Bryggen, is graced by colourful gabled buildings that hark back to its days as a member of the Hanseatic League.
