MS Caledonian Sky to exit Captain Cook Cruises Fiji fleet

Small ship operator to pivot to day cruising/dinner voyage program.

Go back to the e-newsletter

Captain Cook Cruises Fiji has confirmed a realignment of its business that will see voyages aboard the luxury expedition ship MS Caledonian Sk y conclude with the brand in early November 2024, LATTE can exclusively reveal. The company took over the operation of Caledonian Sky from APT in early November last year , introducing a new level of expedition cruising in the remote waters of Fiji, including the rarely visited Lau Islands in the Southern Pacific.

Speaking exclusively with LATT E, Allison Haworth West, Executive Chair said the “strategic step” to wind down operation of the small ship comes as Captain Cook Cruises Fiji pivots to focus on its core business of island day cruising and dinner voyages.

“ Caledonian Sky has been a runaway success,” Haworth West said. “The ship, the destination and the crew have received outstanding feedback from guests for the rich, cultural experience that Captain Cook Cruises Fiji provides onboard the small ship. We look forward continuing our schedule of 7- and 14-night expeditions to remote Fiji and Tonga until November.”

“The vision for Caledonian Sky was to bring luxury cruising to the outer islands. Our passenger loads have been building and capacity has steadily grown.

“The program struck a chord with the expedition market and has been successful, filling a void in that niche market,” Haworth West explained, adding that the project was also supported by the Fijian Government.

“We’ve opened up tourism interaction like never before,” she added.

The departure of Caledonian Sky from the fleet, along with the company’s previous smaller vessel, Reef Endeavour , leaves a hole in the small ship sector for Captain Cook Cruises Fiji for the time being,

Haworth West confirmed the final sailing of the 114-passenger ship with CCC Fiji will depart on 26 October 2024. Guests who have sailings booked beyond November 2024 are being contacted by the boutique cruise line or via their travel advisor to offer alternative arrangements, including a cabin upgrade on an earlier departure.

The company is also offering a ‘Stay 7, Pay’ 4 promotion on Caledonian Sky .

The final voyage operated under Captain Cook Cruises Fiji for the vessel will be the 7-day Ultimate Lau & Kadavu sailing on Saturday 26 October 2024. View the remaining schedule, updated on 20 June 2024, here .

Captain Cook Cruises Fiji to conclude Caledonian Sky voyages in November 2024

CruiseMapper logo

The small company Captain Cook Cruises Fiji has announced a strategic realignment of its business, culminating in the cessation of voyages on the expedition ship Caledonian Sky in early November 2024.

Having taken over the Caledonian Sky from APT in early November 2023, Captain Cook Cruises Fiji introduced a new level of expedition cruising to the remote waters of Fiji, including the seldom-visited Lau Islands in the Southern Pacific.

Executive Chair Allison Haworth West described this move to phase out the small ship’s operations as a strategic step, allowing the company to refocus on its primary offerings of inter-island day cruises and dinner voyages.

Haworth West remarked Caledonian Sky has been exceptionally successful. Both the ship and the itineraries, along with their dedicated crew, have garnered rave reviews from guests for the culturally rich experiences provided onboard. Haworth West added they are eager to continue their schedule of 7- and 14-night expeditions to remote areas of Fiji and Tonga until November.

The departure of Caledonian Sky from the fleet, along with the earlier departure of the smaller vessel Reef Endeavour , temporarily leaves a gap in the small ship sector for Captain Cook Cruises Fiji.

Haworth West confirmed that the final voyage for the 114-passenger ship under Captain Cook Cruises Fiji will commence on October 26, 2024. Guests with bookings beyond November 2024 are being contacted to arrange alternatives, including cabin upgrades on earlier sailings.

Additionally, the company is promoting a ‘Stay 7, Pay 4’ offer on Caledonian Sky.

The vessel’s final voyage with Captain Cook Cruises Fiji will be the 8-day Ultimate Lau & Kadavu sailing, set to depart from Port Denarau/Nadi on October 26th and end in Lautoka on Nov 2nd, 2024. The itinerary visits Makogai Island, Qilaqila/Vanua Balavu Island, Fulaga Island, Vuaqava Island, Totoya Island and Nalotu/Kadavu Island before Lautoka.
