The ships decision as to whether the Northern Light occurred is final. We hope that you will experience seeing the Northern Lights, although Hurtigruten cannot be held responsible if you don’t. They do however, promise that in the event of there being no Northern Lights Occurrence as defined above on your voyage, they will invite you back to cruise with Hurtigruten once more.
