Northern Latitudes – Norway, Iceland & Halifax

About this cruise

Somewhere around day five the ship stops being transport and starts being home. This 14-night sailing from Southampton on September 19, 2026 visits Stavanger, Haugesund, Skjolden, Reykjavik, Halifax and New York. You get off in New York, which is a good excuse to tack on a few days on land. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. Crossing 4 borders through the Northern Europe & Scandinavia: Norway, Iceland, Canada and United States. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Majestic Princess takes the food seriously, with 9 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. By night three you start recognising faces; by night ten you're swapping numbers. That's the magic of a longer sailing. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Southampton has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. 14 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
