Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm booking a Northern Lights cruise. Okay, that makes sense. I'm paying a fortune.

They say in search of the northern lights. That's exactly how they do it.

The premium for doing those ones is roughly about 30% above and higher price than the the light for light cruise either side of it.

If you don't see it, you get another cruise for free. But they might not do that anymore.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider if the premium for an event cruise is worth the potential for not seeing the event due to weather.
βœ“Check the specific terms and conditions for guarantees and compensation before booking an event cruise.
