“Britannia and Azura have had a very successful season in the Caribbean from Barbados and Iona has spent her maiden winter months in the Canary Islands and northern Europe and will soon head up to the spectacular Norwegian fjords for the summer of scenic cruising and thrilling adventures,” said Ludlow.
“It is evident that our guests are reassured by the steps we have taken to protect their health and wellbeing and that they are delighted to be back onboard reigniting their passion for travel.”
