HX Is going all-inclusive fleetwide
HX (Hurtigruten Expeditions is rolling out an ‘all-inclusive’ onboard offering as standard across the whole fleet.
This will be introduced later this year, covering all destinations.
As part of a phased approach, HX will start with Antarctica & Galápagos expeditions departing in October 2024.
The ‘all inclusive’ offering includes expert-led daily expeditions, access to science-led activities both on board and in the wild, as well as drinks.
The changes are part of a larger project to enhance the overall expedition cruise experience, as well as simplifying the product for travel agents.
Alex Delamere-White, HX Chief Commercial Officer, said: “Expedition cruises can be a complex product for agents to sell, given the unique destinations we visit and varying experiences by operator.”
“We’re confident that by including so many elements as standard in the price, we can simplify life onboard and enhance our trade-friendly focus.”
For guests booking a HX expedition, starting with Antarctica and Galápagos expeditions, their regular grade cabin will now include expeditions and activities such as hikes, community visits and talks, full board dining with house wine and beer, free Wi-Fi and gratuities.
