The Norwegian line will bring back all but two of its 16 ships during August and September, having reintroduced MS Finnmarken as the world’s first ocean cruiser to return to sailing in mid-June. Currently, Hurtigruten has five ships operating international and domestic itineraries with limited capacity and strict hygiene measures.

The UK itineraries will be on the hybrid-powered MS Roald Amundsen. They will depart Portsmouth on 2 September, Liverpool on 7 and 17 September, and Glasgow on 12 September. Off-the-beaten-track destinations will include the Isles of Scilly, Fowey, Rathlin Island, Fort William, Oban, Fishguard and Waterford.
