This is a fabulous Southern Caribbean itinerary and demand is very high. Please note that prices and availability are subject to change until time of booking. Some of the categories may be "guaranteed" only, meaning your cabin may be assigned by Celebrity at some point before the cruise.

Hurtigruten Expeditions celebrated a milestone when the Fridtjof Nansen became the first ship to connect to shore power at Midtbakki Terminal, in Reykjavik, on June 9.
While docked at the Midtbakki terminal, the Fridtjof Nansen will utilize Iceland's renewable electricity, thereby reducing emissions during its port stays in Reykjavik.
“The availability of sustainable shore power at the Midtbakki Terminal in the Icelandic capital is an important step in our efforts towards more sustainable shipping. We are proud to be able to supply another of our expedition ships, MS Fridtjof Nansen, with emission-free power in the harbor of Reykjavik,” said Claus A. Andersen, director of fleet operations at HX. “Using shore power is an important part of our strategy to make our expedition voyages climate-neutral by 2050.”

We still have availability for a 9-night Antarctica expedition cruise, departing Ushuaia, Argentina, January 15, 2025 aboard The Atlas World Navigator. My wife Kerrieann and I will be hosting this epic adventure and we have negotiated fantastic group fares, thousands below what is currently being offered, if you were to book directly with Atlas.
Folks this is literally the trip of a lifetime, and you don't want to miss out! The ship is selling out and I can't guarantee you a cabin, only the great fares for remaining availability. Ask me for more information, if you are interested.
Here is a list of what's included with your fare. If you are interested, please email me at [email protected]

YOUR MEMORIES AWAIT
Serving My Country - I have spent 37 years in the field of aviation. I started as a pilot in the Royal Canadian Air Force, flying both jet aircraft and helicopters. I served my country during two peacekeeping tours in the Sinai Peninsula; helping enforce the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel. After 10 years in the air force, I became a civilian air traffic controller where I spent 27 years providing safe and professional services at, among others, Lester B. Pearson International Airport; Canada’s busiest. The last 10 years of my career, with Nav Canada, were spent in various positions where I applied my experience and knowledge as a pilot and air traffic controller to computer modelling, simulation, training, and technical system development. I retired as an Airport Ground Surveillance Radar Specialist.
Working as a Team - Whether I was flying HRH The Prince of Wales, performing in an airshow, medevacing a wounded soldier out of the desert in the middle of the night, or dealing with an aircraft emergency at Canada’s busiest airport; I was always part of a high-performance team where focus, planning, and attention to detail were critical to getting the job done.
Passion for Travel - Having travelled extensively in my professional career I am passionate about travel and all it brings to a fulfilling lifestyle. In these travels, I discovered cruising and fell in love with my idea of the perfect vacation! A cruise is the ultimate escape to adventure; the adventure that waits for you at every port and every destination. Now I have taken my love for travel, my passion for cruising, the lessons that I learned in an amazing career in aviation, and turned them into a business where I serve my clients as a trusted cruise counsellor.
Certified Cruise Counsellor - My attention to detail translates into planning cruise vacations and giving timely advice and guidance to my clients, every step of the way. After undertaking extensive cruise industry training, I have been certified by at least a dozen cruise lines as a specialist. I received my “Certified Cruise Counsellor” designation from Cruise Lines International Association; the industry’s leading professional association. I take the time to ask questions; to learn what types of travel experiences make a cruise memorable for my clients; to really get to know my clients so we can build a long-lasting relationship together. I use my experience, training, and professionalism, to research and plan (or help you plan) the perfect cruising vacation.
My Promise to You - My desire to serve others is rooted in everything I do. From serving my country, my fellow airmen, or the flying public, I am ready to serve the needs of my clients as they prepare for, and embark on their own voyages.
My client’s needs are not my top priority. They are my only priority!
