Two coming polar departures
of G Adventures’ wholly owned
expedition vessel MS Expedition
have been cancelled in order for
the ship to undergo maintenance.
Scheduled for spring, the ship
will be taken out of service to be
fitted with new engines.
A departure of ‘Arctic Highlights’
on 02 Sep and the ‘Falklands,
South Georgia and the Antarctic
Islands’ on 29 Oct have been
axed, with 54 pax in total affected.
The firm’s Australia managing
director Belinda Ward told Cruise
Weekly fitting the new engines
was “a significant undertaking”.
“The investment in new
engines, we believe, will allow
the G Expedition to continue to
provide an on-going first-class
expedition service,” Ward said.
Affected pax have been offered
a refund or rebooking assistance.
