Norse Atlantic has announced a new air cruise partnership with P&O Cruises.
The deal will allow the airline to operate charter services from the UK to Antigua and Barbados this winter.
Between November 2024 and March 2025 there will be weekly Friday flights from Manchester to Barbados, and weekly Saturday flights from Gatwick and Manchester, alternating between Antigua and Barbados.
In December Norse put flights on sale for its 2024-25 winter season, including routes from London to Bridgetown in Barbados and Montego Bay in Jamaica.
But an airline spokesperson confirmed that Norse will not operate flights to the Caribbean on its own network this winter, leaving only the charter services detailed above.
Commenting on the news, P&O Cruises president Paul Ludlow said the partnership “enables us to deliver a personalized onboard experience that reflects the consistently high standards our guests expect from a P&O Cruises holiday.”
Meanwhile, Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO and founder of Norse Atlantic Airways, said:
“We are delighted to partner with P&O Cruises for the 2024/2025 winter air cruises to the Caribbean. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to providing exceptional travel experiences to our customers.
“Our modern aircraft and class-leading product will provide passengers with a comfortable and memorable journey from the moment they step on board. “We look forward to welcoming P&O guests next season and contributing to the success of their Caribbean holiday.”
Norse Atlantic recently announced plans for its first flights from the UK to South Africa, with a three-times-weekly service between Gatwick and Cape Town launching on 28 October.
