Fred Olsen Cruise Lines is set to return to its homeland of Norway on Tuesday (16 November) after new ship Borealis departed in search of the Northern Lights.

Martin Lister, the line's head of itinerary planning and destination experience, said Fred Olsen is "proud to sail its own course"

It’s the line’s first voyage to Norway since it resumed sailing in the summer, and marks the start of a programme of cruising to the region, with 22 sailings in 2022. 
 
Fred Olsen’s journey planners have designed the Norwegian sailings to "maximise the benefits" of their smaller ships, which allow them to sail size restricted waters such as Lysefjord, Akrafjord and Fjaerlandsfjord.
 
Martin Lister, the line’s head of itinerary planning and destination experience, said Fred Olsen is "proud to sail its own course".
 
"This is especially true in the fjords, where we frequently travel away from the well-sailed route," he added.
