After all\, Norway was the home of Roald Amundsen\, the explorer who led expeditions that were the first to reach the South Pole\, the first to cross over the North Pole\, and the first to traverse the Northwest Passage. Hurtigruten celebrates this spirit of exploration with the 2018 launch of the MS Roald Amundsen\, a ship that is in a class of its own. The first of the next generation of explorer ships\, the MS Roald Amundsen is the most advanced\, safest\, and cleanest expedition ship ever built. Powered in part by a hybrid technology system that provides quiet\, reduced-emission cruising for short periods of time\, the MS Roald Amundsen is your base camp at sea\, and the ideal platform for exploring fragile natural areas. Be one of the first to take part in the New Age of Exploration in a webinar with Hurtigruten CEO\, Daniel Skjeldam. \nIn this webinar\, you will learn about: \n– The Experience: Exciting itineraries to the world’s most remote places\, to help you connect with your inner explorer.\n– The Essentials: The MS Roald Amundsen’s groundbreaking hybrid power system\, its Activity Center\, and more.\n– The Experts: The advantages of traveling with an expedition team and with Hurtigruten\, the world leader in exploration travel.\n– The Future: How you can be one of the first to join the New Age of Exploration. \nFeatured Speaker: Daniel Skjeldam\nDaniel has been the chief executive officer of Hurtigruten since 2012. He holds a Master of Science in economics and business from the Norwegian School of Economics. He was a member of the start-up team for Norwegian Airlines and served as its commercial director for five years. \n  URL:https://travelwebinars.com/event/hurtigruten-june2017/ CATEGORIES:Consumers,Hurtigruten,Travel Agents ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://travelwebinars.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/hurt.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
