Sip and Sail - Free Champagne Afternoon Tea for Teachers with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines!

Complimentary Champagne Afternoon Tea for Teachers on Select Fred. Olsen Cruises This Summer

Calling all teachers! School’s (almost) out, and as an ex-college lecturer I know the school year can be a whirlwind, and planning a getaway during the summer holidays often means dealing with sky-high prices. Well, here’s some fabulous news to brighten your day: Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering a free champagne traditional afternoon tea for two on select sailings in July and August! Yes, you read that right—free bubbly and delicious treats just for you hardworking educators.

Clare Ward, Director of Product and Customer Service at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, understands the struggle: “At Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, you won’t see us hike up our cruise prices during the school holidays. We’re not targeting ourselves towards those with young families, making us a fantastic option for teachers looking to unwind outside of term-time.”

This delightful offer is available on certain cruises of six nights or more in July and August 2024 and 2025. Imagine exploring the stunning Norwegian Fjords, the volcanic beauty of the Azores, the picturesque French rivers, or the rugged landscapes of Iceland—all while enjoying a complimentary champagne afternoon tea.

To take advantage of this offer, just book by 31st July 2024, call the Reservations Team, and quote code TEACH245. Don’t forget to have your Teacher Reference Number (TRN) handy!
