Polarlys is Norwegian for `polar light´, and refers to the natural Arctic phenomenon we pursue in winter.
Hurtigruten ships are working vessels operating a regular service to a set timetable. The ships carry goods, vehicles and passengers between ports, by night and day, as an integral part of Norwegian∘ daily life. The ships are calling at ports around the clock. You may expect some noise and vibration in a few cabins during loading of goods. This varies depending on the location of your cabin and the type of ship. Also, noise affects people differently∘ and what may be a problem for one person may not be a problem for another. Please ask the reservation team for advice on the best cabin location for you.
