Travelers who want to explore Antarctica and the Arctic can save up to $6,500 per person during wave season with Aurora Expeditions.

The promotion applies to select 2025 and 2026 cruises on Aurora Expeditions’ three purpose-built ships: the Greg Mortimer, the Sylvia Earle and the forthcoming Douglas Mawson, which is set to debut in December 2025.

Bookings must be made by March 31, 2025. Travelers can save up to 20 percent off select 2025 and 2026 expeditions to Antarctica, plus enjoy airfare credits of up to $2,000 per person. The company is also waiving the single supplement on the full fare of select 2025 and 2026 Antarctica departures.

Travelers can also save up to 20 percent off select 2025 Arctic voyages and enjoy a free stateroom upgrade in Balcony Stateroom Categories B and C. The company is also waiving the single supplement on the full fare of select 2025 Arctic trips to Greenland, Svalbard and the Northwest Passage.

“Our wave season offers are designed to inspire travelers to embrace their sense of adventure and explore the awe-inspiring beauty of the polar regions,” says Michael Heath, chief executive officer of Aurora Expeditions. “With savings of up to $6,500 per person and no single supplements on select voyages, we’re making it easier than ever for expeditioners to join us in creating unforgettable memories while also contributing to the preservation of these remote destinations.” 

The company is also rolling out a new incentive for travel advisors called the Big Polar Giveaway. Travel advisors who deposit new bookings by Feb. 15, 2025, will be entered to win an Antarctic or Arctic expedition for two. Each booking counts as one entry, so travel advisors can increase their chances of winning by making more sales.
