PRESS RELEASE ....
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has just announced the cancellation of the inaugural cruise of its latest ship, Balmoral, due to depart for the Canary Islands on 30th January.
The ship has just undergone a very extensive refit, including a substantial lengthening process, which is an extremely complex task. A number of technical issues have now arisen and, consequently, further essential work must be undertaken before the ship can commence her cruise programme.
