Cruise Ship Jobs - Norwegian Coastal Voyage Jobs

    Formerly known as Bergen Line, Norwegian Coastal Voyage Inc. (NCV) offers a unique coastal trip with daily sailings along the captivating west coast of Norway, from Bergen in the south, across the Arctic Circle, to Kirkenes in the north close to the Russian border, stopping at 34 ports along the way. The focus of a Norwegian Coastal Voyage trip is on experiencing the real Norway -- mingling with European passengers, dining on fresh-caught salmon and cloud berries, and tuning in to the rhythms of a variety of languages. Nature is the entertainment, and the ship's small size allows passengers to get in close the images that will last a lifetime: the fjords, the remote villages and sights that most people never see. The ships vary from "traditional" to new - more than half have been built since 1993. The brand-new Millennium Ships, MS Finnmarken and MS Trollfjord will be in service in April and May 2002. Both ships accommodate some 650 passengers. Suites are available, many with a balcony, and some with a Jacuzzi, and several cabins are wheelchair-accessible. In Coastal tradition these ships are floating art galleries that showcase Norwegian paintings, sculptures, and textiles. The interior of the MS Finnmarken is decorated in Art Nouveau style, while the MS Trollfjord is modern in design with extensive use of Norwegian wood, stone, and large expanses of glass. The six New Ships were built between 1993 and 1997 to meet cruise standards, and accommodate approximately 490 passengers each. The three Mid-Generation Ships were built in the early 1980s and refurbished in 1995. Each accommodates approximately 320 cruise passengers.  Reminiscent of classic steamer vessels, the two Traditional Ships in the fleet were built in the early 1960s and refurbished in 1985. They are the most intimate of the Norwegian Coastal vessels, accommodating approximately 200 cruise passengers each. New are also once-in-a-lifetime expedition type cruises to Greenland and Spitsbergen. These soft adventure programs give the opportunity to explore the last wilderness of Europe rich in unspoiled nature and wildlife. Glaciers, polar bears, whales, seals, sea eagles, puffins and rare Arctic flowers can be part of these unique programs. There are also cruises to Antarctica and  the Chilean Fjords. The MS Nordnorge sails from Chile to Antarctica and Argentina. These incredible areas of the world offer the most magnificent mountains, fjords and an abundant wildlife to the few people who are fortunate enough to visit. All Expedition Cruises include Zodiac landings, tour guides on board, and numerous lectures to create an intimate learning experience.
