Fred Olsen Cruises
Her casino was stripped out and the resulting space allowed the ship to build in an internet café, an excellent library and a first for Fred Olsen – a pub! There are some concerns being expressed by disabled passengers about this ‘stretched’ ship – wheelchair access is quite difficult to some areas and there are only 4 lifts for 1300 passengers, also some of the older cabins have immovable beds and you need to ask extremely clearly about this if having a queen-sized bed is important to you.
On the other hand, the new cabins with balconies have a universal thumbs-up and the pub seems to be a very popular innovation. Passenger age is similar to other Fred Olsen ships as far as can be told this early in her career and there are no more facilities for children than usual.
