CRUISE passengers setting sail from Rosyth will be able to take advantage of a Freedom Fare Price promise as Fred Olsen Cruise Lines announces its itinerary for summer 2026.

The summer itinerary for 2026 starts on May 27 and the programme including specially-timed sailings to coincide with the solar eclipse in August 2026, with Bolette and Balmoral sailing to Iceland and Borealis heading for Spain.

In addition, there will be chances to witness waterfalls at their most powerful in Norway, British Isles cruises which take in summertime views of remote isles and rugged coastlines and short five-night cruises to coincide with British bank holidays and are perfect for the first time cruiser.

Guests are being invited to book up early to ensure they get the best value for their cruise.

The Price Promise assures guests that anyone who books a Freedom Fare within the first four weeks of a cruise going on sale will receive either a cabin upgrade or credit to spend on board, should an equivalent cabin on their cruise be reduced at a later date.

Doug Glenwright, Guest Experience Director at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: “Our Freedom Fare Price Promise has been created with our guests in mind, following feedback that they weren’t sure when the best time to book was to get the best value for their cruise.

“Our new Price Promise means that if guests book a Freedom Fare within the first four weeks of a cruise going on sale, they will not get better value for money.

“If the price of an equivalent cabin on their cruise is reduced, we promise they will receive either a free cabin upgrade or credit to spend on board.

“We want our guests to know that they are getting the best value for their money by booking early with us.”

Martin Lister, Head of Product Innovation at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, added: “There are many highlights from our new summer 2026 itineraries, but undoubtedly, the special sailings for August’s total eclipse of the sun, are particularly exciting.

“In Iceland, guests on board Bolette and Balmoral will experience whales, waterfalls and geysers, all while being in the place where the sun will cover the moon for the longest period, while those aboard Borealis will discover the old towns and promenades in Spain, plus a full eclipse before the sun sets.

“All of our new itineraries have been curated to allow guests to embrace the local way of life, seek out native wildlife and witness spectacular natural wonders and breathtaking scenery."
