Polar Star

Polar Star is a passenger cruise vessel operated by Hurtigruten.

Polar Star was built in 1969. Vessels of this generation reflect the design conventions of their construction era: atrium layouts, public-room programming, balcony cabin ratios and propulsion systems all evolved measurably between the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s shipbuilding cycles.

Key reported specifications for Polar Star include a gross tonnage of approximately 4,998 GT, an overall length of approximately 87 metres.

Onboard programming on a vessel of Polar Star's profile typically includes multiple dining venues, a central showroom, pool deck areas, a spa and fitness facility, themed bars, and on family-oriented brands children's and teen spaces.

Itineraries assigned to Polar Star reflect the operator's seasonal deployment plan, which moves vessels between regions to follow demand and weather. Researching the ship's current and upcoming season gives the most accurate picture of where it will sail.
