Orion Expedition Cruises has reported
“extraordinary” bookings for its ship acquired
recently by Lindblad Expeditions.
“Despite as yet having only been released to
past passengers, the advance bookings have
been unprecedented (in particular the new
itineraries) and sailings are filling up fast,” chief
operating officer Joel Katz wrote in a message
to Orion customers.
“As an example, in one week we took 57
deposited bookings for the first three sailings”.
All voyages are now open for sale to non-past
passengers.
In March 2014, Orion will be renamed
National Geographic Orion to reflect the
alliance between Lindblad and the National
Geographic Society.
For the rest of 2013, Orion and Lindblad will
share resources “with a view to establishing
a seamless, integrated operation ashore and
afloat”, Katz said.
