Relax and Book With Confidence

Relax and Book with Confidence

We understand there is a little uncertainty around at the moment, however, it still remains a great time to book your future travel plans. Prices are rising quickly and availability is getting more difficult, particularly in key destinations. Despite this, we are still seeing some great deals for holidays travelling in 2022 and even 2023! 

Many of the operators that Polar Routes work with have introduced a number of flexible booking measures, so you can relax and book with the reassurance that if the circumstances change, you'll have options to change your plans.

Each operator has their own policy and we have listed a number of them below, however, when you place an enquiry with us, your Travel Specialist will advise you on the information specific to the cruises you are considering. Then you can make your decision based on what works for you.

In addition, on all new bookings made between 13 March 2020 until 31 December 2021, Polar Routes will waive their amendment and cancellations fees, so you can relax and book with confidence
