Hurtigruten

Hurtigruten AS is the result of a merger between the two previous operators of the Hurtigruten service, Troms Fylkes Dampskibsselskap (TFDS) and Ofotens og Vesteraalens Dampskibsselskab (OVDS). TFDS was founded in 1866, and OVDS was established in 1868. The two companies merged in March 2006 to form Hurtigruten Group ASA, and twelve months later, the merged entity assumed the name Hurtigruten ASA. It was then renamed again to Hurtigruten AS in 2015.

Several ships now operate as cruise ships to Antarctica, departing from Ushuaia on the Argentine Tierra del Fuego. The route can include the Falkland Islands and South Georgia Islands. Other cruise ports include Iceland, the Mediterranean Region, and the ‘Trans-Atlantic Voyage’ from Las Palmas in the Canary Islands to Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Hurtigruten is one of the few companies that pays their crew members while on vacation.
