A big thank you to our guests from the RNLI.
Donations from Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines' passengers through the years have played a valuable part in supporting the RNLI; and our Oceans members have donated an overwhelming £77, 000 for this worthy cause this year, meaning our target of £150, 000 for a new Atlantic 85 lifeboat for the Kyle of Lochalsh station in Scotland has been reached.
Black Watch dry dock for further improvements.
Black Watch will be taking a well-earned short break to head to dry dock in December for a pampering treatment of her own. Improvements will include new soft furnishings in the Neptune Lounge, Pipers Bar, Glentanar Restaurant & Observatory Lounge. More extensive changes will be made to transform the Garden Cafe into the Braemar Garden.
Farewell to an old friend: Black Prince.
This October, after sailing approximately 4.5 million nautical miles and carrying 629,000 passengers, beloved Black Prince spent her last days as a Fred. Olsen cruise ship. After 43 years of service, we shall be sad to see Black Prince go, but at the same time, pleased that this popular ship will continue to sail, with 3 and 4 night short break holidays from Venezuela.

To discover how enjoyable it can be to cruise in a suite, we have great free upgrade offers on selected cabin grades to tempt you to experience it for yourself. Please refer to the attached brochure for cruise and complimentary upgrade details.
Suite passengers
Those guests who have booked a suite can now choose to check-in early and join us for an exclusive complimentary lunch on-board*. By the time you have finished your meal, your suite will be ready for you.
*This benefit is not available on Junior Suites (BJ & JS grades).
