HX HAS launched its 2026-2027 season, during which the line will celebrate 130 years.
New itineraries has been unveiled for Antarctica, Alaska, Greenland, Norway, and the Galapagos Islands, with one of the highlights of the season to be HX’s ‘Solar Eclipse Expedition’.
Travellers will witness a total solar eclipse over East Greenland on 12 August 2026.
A new seven-night ‘Ultimate Norway’ expedition will also launch in January 2026, embracing the national concept of “friluftsliv” or “free as life” – in line with the company’s new campaign platform of adopting its “Norwegian-ness”.
Guests will travel to the Lyngen Alps, Lofoten, Vesteralen, and Senja while experiencing polar nights and the Northern Lights.
A special ‘Ultimate Norway at Christmas’ voyage will also be available in late 2026, marking a truly festive journey.
Two distinct voyages will offer unparalleled access to Alaska: the nine-night ‘Fjords of the Great Land’, providing a condensed exploration ideal for travellers seeking a shorter adventure from Vancouver to Seward.
Meanwhile, the 12-night ‘Where the Mountains Meet the Sea’ voyage begins in Seward, visiting Prince William Sound, and crossing the Gulf of Alaska to follow the Inside Passage through Southeast Alaska and British Columbia, ending in Vancouver.
The new ‘Explorer’s Route’ voyage offers an unparalleled journey across the Antarctic Peninsula over nine days.
Guests will visit the South Shetland Islands, Antarctic Sound, Weddell Sea, Gerlache Strait, and Penola Strait, beginning and ending in Buenos Aires.
Travellers in the United Kingdom and Germany will enjoy new expeditions departing from Dover and Hamburg, exploring Europe’s west coast.
Stops include the Channel Islands, the Isles of Scilly, Harlingen, and Heligoland.
New expeditions will also depart from Dover and Hamburg, taking travellers through Norway’s deep fjords before heading to the Arctic and the west coast of Svalbard.
