Follow on Google News | Get in the ‘red, white and blue’ spirit on a Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ Diamond Jubilee cruiseAs a British cruise line attracting predominantly British guests, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines plans to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee in typical patriotic style.
By: Rachael Jackson Nathan Philpot, Sales and Marketing Director for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: “Her Majesty The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee is certainly something to celebrate, especially as we are a British cruise line and serve the mainly British cruise market. I am sure that all our guests will get behind our Diamond Jubilee celebrations with their usual enthusiasm and will welcome the opportunity to join together with the ship’s crews for a very special ‘street party’ atmosphere on board, with a huge variety of themed activities, meals and entertainment on this unique occasion.” Cruise guests will be invited to get into the ‘Street Party’ spirit with plenty of Union Flags and bunting, and will have the chance to play traditional games and join in a rousing British sing-along. There will be specially-themed menus, and each ship with serve a ‘Jubilee Cocktail’ in the bars created by the onboard ‘mixologists’ Plans also include a ‘Grand Tea Dance’ with complimentary sherry and cakes, as well as a prize for the best cake. Guests visiting the beauty salon can expect to be offered special pampering packages, to make them ‘Feel Like a Queen for the Day.’ In the public lounges, TV coverage of the Jubilee events will be screened, so those away from home will not miss out on any of the action.
