Fred Olsen names fifth ship Balmoral
Balmoral has been chosen as the name for Fred Olsen Cruise Lines’ fifth ship.
The 34,242-ton vessel, currently operating as Norwegian Crown for Norwegian Cruise Line, is to transfer to Fred Olsen next autumn and enter service under its new name in January 2008.
Fred Olsen managing director Mike Rodwell said: “The choice of the name Balmoral is ideal for this elegant ship – like our fourth ship Boudicca she has been named to reflect our commitment to our British customers.”
