Fred. Olsen Rolls Out Interactive TV to Braemar

The service personalised to Fred. Olsen, has been branded FOi (Fred. Olsen Interactive.) Passengers using it can investigate future cruises, shore excursions and cabin shopping. They can place orders, from the comfort of their cabin, for breakfast room service, wine with dinner, duty free shopping, order a film, book excursions or even book another cruise.

The service has proved extremely popular with Balmoral customers and the facility has reduced queues at the shore tours desk and future cruise sales office, although those who prefer a face-to-face experience can still make their bookings in person.

With the service well-established on Balmoral, it has now been rolled out to the newly lengthened and refitted Braemar which re-entered service in July 2008. In due course there are plans to offer this very efficient service across the whole fleet.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

At Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines we are very proud of our smaller ships – Bolette, Borealis and Balmoral - and the imaginative and unusual itineraries they allow us to offer. Every cruise is hand-crafted from scratch by our team of in-house Journey Planners to make sure you are not only visiting the best destinations, but at the best time to experience them.

For us, it’s not just about where we go but how we take you there. We put as much time into planning scenic cruising as we do in choosing the destinations themselves. On board, our Signature Experiences showcase the history, culture, nature and flavours of the destinations you’ll visit – from Treats of the Region, where you can enjoy local delicacies, to our Sky at Sea star-gazing sessions where you can relax with a hot toddy out on deck while our astronomer talks you through the night sky.

Plus, with each ship carrying 1,300 guests or less, our ships are small enough for us to offer a warm, friendly and personal service where nothing is ever too much trouble, as we visit a host of exciting ports in every corner of the globe.
