National Geographic Venture Sister to National Geographic Quest, which launched in 2017, National Geographic Venture will be purposebuilt to maximise wildlife viewing in Alaska. Wide open decks and viewing area can accommodate all 100 guests at once will mean that you never miss a thing. A mud room provides the perfect place to change in and out of your expedition gear when you leave or return to the ship, and twin Zodiac landing stations will reduce the time it takes to get ashore. Itineraries aboard this new ship begin in May 2018.
Norwegian Bliss
A new ship launch is always an exciting event in the cruising world and we are set to be positively spoilt in this regard during 2018. Here are some of the new vessels that will be making their debut over the next 12 months.
Roald Amundsen Hurtigruten’s newest ship will help shape the future of cruising. Roald Amundsen, named after a legendary Norwegian explorer, is the first of two vessels that will incorporate electrical power to show that hybrid propulsion is possible for these cruise ships. This, along with conservative use of electricity on board, will cut emissions by 20% and help protect the remote regions of the world that Hurtigruten visits. Features include a state-of-the-art activities centre where guests can learn about the areas they visit, an infinity pool and a Norwegian fine dining restaurant. The first sailing takes place in October 2018.
Symphony of the Seas℠ For the last few years, Royal Caribbean have been having a competition with themselves to build the largest cruise ship in the world. Allure of the Seas℠ earned this accolade before she was surpassed by Harmony of the Seas® in 2016, and now Symphony of the Seas℠ 14 Cruising Magazine
will take over the mantle in the spring. The ship will feature the popular ‘neighbourhood’ layout found on her Oasis Class sisters, along with a few new additions. There’s the chance to play laser tag, a new high-flying show will grace the AquaTheatre and the impressive Ultimate Family Suites include a slide between the two levels.
Celebrity Edge℠ Celebrity Edge℠ will be the first in a whole new class of ship for Celebrity Cruises. The innovative design blends outside with indoors, bringing you closer to the view gliding past. Open spaces and giant windows help to flood spaces with natural light and will give a feeling of relaxation wherever you go on board. Stand out features include the Magic Carpet, the first ever cantilevered, floating platform at sea; Eden, an entertainment and dining venue designed to look like an indoor garden; and brand new Edge Villas,
Having launched Norwegian Joy exclusively for the Asian market in 2016, Norwegian Bliss will bring some of her exciting features to the rest of the world, along with a whole host of favourites that we all know and love. A go-kart track and laser tag will be found on the top deck, whilst the Haven, Waterfront and 678 Ocean Place are back and better than ever. Designed for exploring Alaska and the Caribbean, observation areas have been taken to a new level. As well as brand new restaurants, new performances from Jersey Boys will keep you entertained. Norwegian Bliss will set sail in the summer.
MSC Seaside Launched in December 2017, MSC Seaside is the first of two new SeasideClass ships to be commissioned - the second, set to launch in June 2018 will be called MSC Seaview. MSC Seaside, their first ship with an English name, will be christened at her home port in Miami, which is the first time the European operator has done so in the U.S; possibly underlying MSC’s intention to cater for a more Englishspeaking market. This 160,000 ton ship is set to hold 4,134 passengers.
Adventure to Antarctica
Highlights of the Frozen Continent Get ready for a rare adventure! Taking an expedition to Antarctica with MS Midnatsol is sure to rank among the most exciting things you’ll ever do: exploring the most remote place on earth. The adventure starts as we sail the famous Drake Passage before arriving in remote Antarctica. Things quickly become even more interesting – behind every new iceberg a new highlight appears. On board, you’ll have fun opportunities to learn and share discoveries with family and new friends in a relaxed way.

The explorer deck is where you can meet fellow adventurers for scientific fun with the engaging Expedition Team, no matter what age you are. The goose bump factor is huge. The wildlife of Antarctica is a chapter in itself. You will see whales, meet thousands of penguins and even some seriously cute seals. And the icebergs drift by in fantastic variety, in all shapes and colours. The horizon seems endless and blue-white, the oceans are full of icebergs and whales. Even more awe-inspiring, we will have our first encounters with huge colonies of penguins. Most importantly, you will explore ashore and in small craft through iceberg-rich waters to feel like a real polar explorer.

Chef de Par Q&A with Dirk Helsig Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ Executive Chef Where were you born, and where do you live? I was born and grew up in Germany, but I married an English girl, so now I live in Southampton, which is really handy for joining the ship.
How did you come to be a Chef on a cruise ship?
Back in 1986, I was working in London to improve my English. During that time, I worked at several different restaurants, including The Ivy, which was a great experience. I wanted to travel and the agency I worked for offered me three options – one was to work on an oil rig, the second was to go to Kuwait, and the other was to join a cruise ship. I chose the cruise ship, and have been at sea ever since. Coincidentally, the ship that I joined initially was the Royal Viking Sky, which is now Fred. Olsen’s Boudicca, so I have come full circle. 16 Cruising Magazine
Why Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines?
have to say that I’ve travelled around the UK quite a lot and there are some lovely places here, too. I love visiting castles, and I really like all the history here.
I have worked for several different cruise lines, including Royal Viking Line, Holland America, Cunard and Seabourn. I joined Fred. Olsen in 2005 because I really like working for a smaller company, and on smaller ships. They are much friendlier, and I also like the fact that we cruise mostly in and out of the UK and have mainly British guests. As far as I know, most cruise lines have special menus or indications on I am not a fan of these huge, their menus for healthy dishes. Lots modern ships that look like of cruise ships offer fitness instructors floating blocks of flats. or nutritional experts, who will advise the guests on healthy eating.
Are cruise lines moving more towards healthy eating?
What are your favourite meals and destinations?
I love anything spicy, particularly Thai and Indian food, but my wife will kill me if I don’t say that my favourite is her Shepherd’s Pie! I have been really lucky and travelled to most places in the world. I have spent a lot of time in Thailand, and would love to travel around India some time. I went to Tanzania on honeymoon and would love to do more safaris, as that was an amazing experience. Other than that, I
But do cruise guests really want to be healthy? I think that this depends upon the individual guest; lots of our guests cruise with Fred. Olsen to enjoy the experience, to be cooked for and be well-looked after, and they like to relax after lunch with a book. However, we also have guests who make good use of the gym and go for runs around the deck. It is a matter of individual choice.
rty
Is catering for allergies and dietary requirements on board important? Does it encourage more guests to cruise with you? It is very important to look after the guests with special dietary needs; they should not feel that they are being discriminated against if they are Coeliac, diabetic or have allergies. We will receive, weeks before a cruise starts, a dietary request list; then, on the first day of the cruise, the guests will receive an invitation to our Dietary Meeting with the Executive Chef, where he/she will explain how the food is prepared on board and how the dishes can be adapted to meet their needs. We ask guests who have specific allergies to have a private talk with the Executive Chef after the meeting. Allergy training for our Chefs and Waiters is vital. If we have all the information from the guest about their allergies, it is very
straightforward, and it is very important that the communication is clear between the guest and the waiter, when the order is taken.
What about the crew on board – is there a move to ensure that they eat healthily, too, especially as this should help them perform better? The food that we serve crew members on board is the ‘oil that keeps the ship going’; as I always say, ‘variety of good fresh food = happy crew = happy guest’. This is a very simple calculation. We have crew members who are vegan, vegetarian or have other dietary needs, and this needs to be taken into consideration. Many crew members use the gym to keep fit and, with a variety of fresh salads, vegetables and fruit, they have a healthy lifestyle on board.
What new challenges come with any move towards healthy food – e.g. sourcing organic and healthy, fresh food? A big challenge is the price of healthy, fresh food, as this can be very weather-dependent, and costs continue to go up. The Fred. Olsen Purchasing Department is doing a fantastic job, sourcing excellent, high-quality food items and ingredients, but this takes a great deal of time and commitment. As for cooking methods, all the cruise liners have combi-ovens, which are energy- and time-efficient, and they are great for slow cooking, roasting and poaching. Our Executive Chefs are constantly training and improving their skills; it is a 24/7 job – although there is a highly-skilled Galley team to support them.

Cruising Magazine 21
We can show you the world In the words of Aladdin, the world is full of ‘unbelievable sights and indescribable feelings.’ And we can help you discover them as part of a world cruise. And, hold your breath it gets better, you get to relax in the lap of luxury whilst sailing from highlight to highlight aboard one of the industry’s sumptuous ships. Typically scheduled for the beginning of the calendar year, a world cruise provides an extended sailing that will take you to a wide range of destinations across multiple countries and even continents. If you are in the enviable position of being able to sail away for anything up to four months, there is no better way to see a hundred thousand things in the dazzling places you never knew.
Cruise Further Afield A world cruise, specifically one sailing from the UK, is a fantastic, stress-free way to travel the world in one trip. Seven or 14-night itineraries are great, but you only ever get the chance to explore a small region of our vast planet before you have to sail home again. In contrast, an exciting 90-night
sailing will take you further afield, allow you to experience countries in much more detail and even take you across hemispheres. The shorter journeys will focus on an area such as South America, whilst longer cruises could see you visit Australia, China and Dubai all in one holiday.
Escape The Winter Blues The fact that most world cruises occur at a time of year when we all feel like we could do with a holiday is a big reason to consider one. Not only will you escape the cold weather in the UK and start the New Year in style, it’s also the perfect way to relax after a busy and often stressful festive period. When you return, spring will almost be here and you can ride the wave of those amazing memories all the way to the summer holidays.
Stay Longer In Port Overnight stays in port are a highlight of any cruise, allowing you to
experience a destination once the sun goes down as well as during the day. World cruises usually feature a higher number of these and sometimes even include two nights in a specific port, giving you the chance to really explore and get an in-depth look at the city. Along with this, the ship will typically stay in port later, so you can venture further away from the port without worrying about missing the departure time. In short, more time in port means more unforgettable experiences can be enjoyed.
Celebrate In Style If you have a big birthday on the horizon or you and your loved one are about to celebrate a milestone anniversary, a cruise around the world is the ultimate way to mark the occasion. The relaxing nature of cruising combined with the amazing sights you will wake up to every morning will mean that this is a holiday you will remember forever. It’s also a great way to sail
off into retirement. Your travel list is likely to be full of destinations you have always wanted to visit and what better time to do it than when you finally say goodbye to full-time employment?
Select A Sector You may be thinking that all of this sounds great but you just don’t have the luxury of taking that much time off from work or away from home. Fear not, though, as you can still experience a significant chunk of a world cruise. Many cruise lines break their round-the-world itineraries up into smaller parts, known as sectors. These are ideal for anyone looking
for something closer to 40 or 50 nights, rather than a sailing which lasts for twice that length. You can simply fly out to meet the ship, explore the ports in your chosen part of the world and then fly back home as the ship continues on its journey. This is also a good option if you have already visited many of the destinations listed on the world cruise itinerary, but there’s a big chunk of places in the middle that you’ve always wanted to see.

Hawai’i If you really want to experience the Aloha-spirit of Hawai`i, we recommend Norwegian Cruise Line and their U.S.-flagged ship, Pride of America. Why? Because they’re the only cruise company to sail to all four main Hawaiian islands in just one week, giving you more time to explore the spectacular scenery, active volcanoes and beautiful beaches. What’s more, your cruise will be as relaxing and indulgent as the paradise islands themselves, thanks to Norwegian’s Premium All-Inclusive with so much now included in your cruise fare.

5 Wonderful Things About Cruise Ship Dining
Food is one of the best parts of any holiday but, when it comes to cruising, dining out on delicious dishes is a definite highlight. With a wide range of options, from fast food to gourmet delights, there’s something to satisfy your hunger whatever time of the day it is and whatever you’re in the mood for. Here are some great things to know about cruise ship restaurants.
The Main Dining Room Offers Great Choice And Quality Sometimes dismissed as boring or unoriginal, the main dining room on a cruise ship is actually a great place to taste a range of different flavours. The quality is typically high and the food tends to be influenced by the region through which you are sailing. Plus, the best part is, these multi-course dinners are almost always included in your cruise fare.
Luxury Cruise Lines Are Great For Real Foodies If you have a real taste for Michelinstarred dining and consider yourself a true foodie, it’s worth opting to sail with one of the luxury cruise lines.
Companies such as Oceania Cruises, Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Seabourn Cruises source the finest ingredients which are turned into masterpieces by expert chefs. You can look forward Champagne and caviar on the beach (Seabourn), Gourmet canapés brought to your suite every night (Oceania), and authentic Italian specialties paired with fine Italian wines (Regent Seven Seas).
Speciality Restaurants Add Some Themed Fun As well as the main dining area, ships also offer a number of speciality restaurants. These typically incur a small surcharge but some are included, especially if you are staying in a higher grade of accommodation. Prices start from as little as just a few pounds and it’s a great way to vary your dinner options. Many speciality restaurants are either themed around a certain country’s cuisine, have a celebrity chef’s name attached to them, or offer something different to the typical dining experience. For example, Royal Caribbean’s Wonderland makes you question your perceptions with its molecular gastronomy.
Steak At Sea Is Delicious Don’t ask us why – it just is. The majority of ships will have their own steakhouse, where hung and aged prime cuts are served alongside delicious, fresh seafood. There’s something about eating steak at sea that never disappoints. Our favourite steakhouses include Norwegian Cruise Line’s Cagney’s, Celebrity Cruises’ Tuscan Grille and Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ brand new Black Watch Room.
You Can Eat Around The Clock As we alluded to earlier, you never have to go hungry on board a cruise ship. From Early Riser breakfasts to late night buffets, there is food available at whatever time of day those hunger pangs hit you. Just got back from a shore excursion and feeling peckish? Afternoon tea is waiting. Sitting by the pool and need a quick lunch? Try a counter service poolside restaurant. All that nightclub dancing got your stomach rumbling? Head to a somewhere like Royal Caribbean’s Sorrento’s for some after-hours pizza. Cruising Magazine 39
