The Norwegian Fjords in 2028 — towering cliffs, glacial inlets and Arctic light — are best explored all-inclusive, with every cost settled before you board. Cruise1st, one of the UK's leading cruise specialists, gives you expert advice on which ship, which cabin grade and which fare inclusions genuinely suit you. Around a third of these sailings depart from Southampton, so most of Britain can reach them by road or rail with no flight needed; for sailings from Copenhagen, Hamburg or Reykjavik, we book the flights, hotels and transfers alongside your cruise as a single Cruise1st Package. One call, one booking, no loose ends.

All-inclusive Norwegian Fjords cruises in 2028 concentrate overwhelmingly on Norway and the fjord coastline, with a smaller share of sailings stretching into the Arctic, round the British Isles, along the UK coast, and across the Atlantic. Durations run from 7 nights up to longer voyages of more than three months, with a median of 11 nights — enough time to take in several fjord systems at a comfortable pace. Just over half the sailings are one-way, so if your itinerary ends in a different country, you will need a flight home; our team can arrange that as part of your booking.
The overwhelming majority of sailings explore Norway’s fjord coastline, and it is easy to see why. The depth and variety of what is on offer in 2028 is wider than most people expect — short seven-night breaks sit alongside 14-night itineraries that work steadily up through the fjords and back. Because so many of the sailings here are one-way, you have the option of sailing north on one itinerary and flying home from wherever the ship ends, rather than retracing the same coastline. We can book that return flight, and any hotel nights at the end, as part of your package. For a broader look at Norway 2028 sailings departing from Southampton, we have a dedicated page for those.
A handful of sailings push further north into Arctic waters, past the midnight sun latitudes. These tend to be longer voyages operated by the luxury and ultra-luxury lines — Seabourn and Explora Journeys in particular — where the extra sea days are filled with lectures, wildlife watching, and small-group shore excursions rather than port-hopping. If you are drawn to extreme latitudes and want the comfort of a fully inclusive fare to go with it, this is a strong combination.
A number of sailings pair the Norwegian coast with calls around the British Isles and the United Kingdom, with a small number that include Scotland. These itineraries often begin or end at Southampton, which means no flight in either direction — you drive or take the train to the port, board, and come home the same way. If you want the full picture of British Isles cruises in 2028, that page covers a wider set of sailings. For all-inclusive no-fly sailings from Southampton in 2028 specifically, we have those listed separately too.
A small number of sailings venture across the Atlantic, typically as repositioning crossings at either end of the season. These are one-way voyages by nature, so a flight at one end is part of the plan; we handle the flights, any hotels and the transfers, so the whole trip is on a single booking. If you want to browse transatlantic 2028 cruises more broadly, that page will give you additional options.
Embarkation ports for these all-inclusive sailings in 2028 include Southampton, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Reykjavik, Stockholm, and Dover. Southampton is the most straightforward for UK travellers — most of Britain can get there by road or rail, with no airport involved at either end. Around a third of the sailings depart from Southampton or Dover, making a genuinely no-fly holiday a realistic option for a large share of the country.
For departures from Copenhagen, Hamburg, Reykjavik or Stockholm, a flight to the embarkation port is part of the trip. Cruise1st can book those flights, plus any hotel nights before you board, and transfers between the airport and the ship, all as part of one Cruise1st Package. The same applies at the disembarkation end: if your sailing ends in Oslo, Amsterdam or anywhere else, we sort the return leg too.
Prefer to explore 2028 sailings from Southampton across different cruise lines? 2028 cruises from Southampton aboard P&O Arvia and Celebrity 2028 cruises from Southampton are two good starting points alongside the fjords options here.
MSC Cruises leads on volume, with the widest spread of departure dates across the year. Explora Journeys and Regent Seven Seas Cruises sit firmly in the luxury and ultra-luxury tier, where the all-inclusive fare covers substantially more than the basics. Celebrity Cruises and Norwegian Cruise Line offer a mid-to-premium range with tiered fare structures, so you can choose exactly how much is bundled in. All six lines here offer fare types that include drinks, dining and other extras — what differs is the depth of what is covered and the style of ship.
For 2028 sailing options with MSC specifically, MSC Cruises from Southampton in 2028 covers their UK departures, and fly-cruise options with MSC in 2028 covers their fly-cruise sailings. If you are also looking at Norwegian Cruise Line’s 2028 sailings more broadly, that page has the full picture.
Seabourn Quest carries just 450 guests, so the fjords feel genuinely intimate rather than busy. Every suite on board has a private balcony and butler service, and all fine wines and spirits are included throughout your voyage — this is not an add-on but the baseline expectation. The near 1:1 crew-to-guest ratio means the level of attention is consistent rather than occasional. The Seabourn Square social hub at the heart of the ship replaces the usual cruise desk with a relaxed, café-style lounge where you can plan the next port, consult the expedition team, or simply sit with a coffee. If you want to look at how the cabins and suites are laid out before you book, the Seabourn Quest cabins and deck plans page has the detail.
The largest suite aboard is the Grand Wintergarden Suite, which runs to approximately 115 m² — nearly twice the space of the Owner’s Suites — and sleeps up to 4 guests. It is a proper apartment at sea, with the full butler and inclusive package that applies across the ship.
At 137,936 tonnes, MSC Splendida is a very different proposition from Seabourn Quest. This is a large, sociable ship with 5 swimming pools, the exclusive Top 18 Solarium, and 20 bars and lounges. The Strand Theatre delivers variety shows nightly; the Purple Jazz Bar and Club 33 keep the evenings going after. For those who want a higher level of privacy within a big ship, the MSC Yacht Club offers a ship-within-a-ship experience: a private pool deck, a dedicated butler, and exclusive access to the L’Etoile gourmet restaurant, all within a larger vessel that has the entertainment and dining variety of a resort.
Cabin grades on MSC Splendida cover a wide range. In list order from inside to suite:
Full deck layouts and cabin grade details are on the MSC Splendida cabins and deck plans page.
MSC Euribia is a newer addition to the MSC fleet and brings a modern, design-led sensibility to the fjords itinerary. For cabin and deck details, the MSC Euribia cabins and deck plans page has everything you need.
MSC Preziosa rounds out the MSC offering. A Fantasia-class ship with a broad range of dining and entertainment options, she suits those who want the energy of a large vessel with the reassurance of a well-established itinerary. See the MSC Preziosa cabins and deck plans for grade options and layouts.
Celebrity Beyond is the most spacious of the Edge-class ships, with generous open decks, float pools with open-water views, and a considered design throughout that gives the ship a calm, uncluttered feel. Celebrity Apex shares the Edge-class layout and the same stylish approach to public spaces. Both ships sail under Celebrity Cruises’ tiered fare structure, which is worth understanding before you book.
Celebrity offers 3 fare tiers for these sailings:
Cabin and deck layouts for both ships are on the Celebrity Beyond cabins and deck plans and Celebrity Apex cabins and deck plans pages.
Norwegian Getaway brings Norwegian Cruise Line’s freestyle approach to the fjords, with the Waterfront oceanfront promenade giving you a direct connection to the sea throughout the voyage, and the Illusionarium offering a distinctive dining-and-entertainment experience. The Savour restaurant is one of the more relaxed and refined dining options aboard.
Norwegian Cruise Line’s fare tiers for these sailings give you real choices about how much is bundled in:
Deck plans and cabin grades are on the Norwegian Getaway cabins and deck plans page.
Explora Journeys brings a different philosophy to all-inclusive luxury: fewer guests, a residential feel, and an itinerary pace that allows proper time in each place rather than a rapid sequence of port calls. EXPLORA V is their newest ship, and cabins and suites are built around private terrace space and a sense of living aboard rather than passing through. The largest suite aboard is the Owner’s Residence, at 155 m² — more than twice the floor area of the next largest Residence category — sleeping up to 4 guests.
Explora Journeys offers fare types that wrap flights, private transfers and hotel stays around the voyage itself. Their Sky & Sea fare, for example, includes return flights in Economy Class, private transfers and hotel stays as part of an airport-to-airport package — meaning the entire journey, from your front door to the ship and back, is handled in one booking. See the EXPLORA V cabins and deck plans for suite categories and layouts.
Prices start at £759 pp* for these all-inclusive sailings, though the range across the six cruise lines and the full spread of cabin grades is wide. An inside cabin on a large MSC ship sits at a very different price point from a terrace suite on Seabourn Quest or EXPLORA V. Some sailings carry reductions of up to 19% from the price previously listed for that cabin grade — though that represents a single departure at the top end, and most reduced sailings are around 7% off. It is worth checking individual dates, since the gap between a reduced sailing and its standard price can make a meaningful difference on a longer voyage.
The all-inclusive element changes the maths significantly compared with a cruise-only fare. When drinks, dining in the main restaurants, and other core amenities are wrapped into the headline price, the on-board spend drops considerably. For Seabourn, Regent Seven Seas and Explora Journeys, the all-inclusive scope is broad enough that your on-board account is genuinely minimal. For Celebrity and Norwegian Cruise Line, the tiered structure means you choose how much to bundle in at the point of booking — our team can walk you through which tier makes financial sense for how you actually cruise.
Cruise1st is a cruise specialist — every booking starts with the cruise and builds outwards from there. For sailings from Southampton or Dover, we can arrange transfers to the port, parking, or the train. For fly-cruise sailings from Copenhagen, Hamburg, Reykjavik or Stockholm, we put flights, hotels and transfers into a single package so there is nothing left to organise separately. If you want a night in port before you sail, or a couple of nights after in a disembarkation city, we add those too. The complete picture is what we call a Cruise1st Package — one price, one booking, one point of contact. Cruise1st is rated 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot from more than 7,000 reviews, is ABTA-bonded and ATOL-protected.
Not sure which ship or cabin grade fits your plans? That is exactly what our expert advice is for. Call before you book and we will go through the options — itinerary, ship, cabin position, fare tier — so the booking you make is the right one for the trip you want.
If you are still comparing options for 2028, it is worth looking at what else is sailing that year. All 2028 cruises gives you the broadest view. Celebrity Cruises in 2028 covers that line’s full programme for the year, and Celebrity 2028 sailings from Southampton narrows it to UK departures. MSC Cruises from Southampton in 2028 is the equivalent for MSC. For those considering a fjords cruise this year rather than next, all-inclusive Norwegian Fjords cruises in 2027 still has availability. And if you are drawn to Norwegian Fjords sailings without the all-inclusive filter, Norwegian Fjords cruises in 2028 is the broader page to browse. The full all-inclusive Norwegian Fjords cruises hub, and the all-inclusive cruises section of our site, are both good places to compare what different years and lines are offering. You can also browse all cruises on the Cruise1st site if you want to start from scratch with a different destination or date.
Planning around Southampton? P&O Cruises from Southampton in 2027 and Christmas cruises from Southampton are popular companion searches, and 2027 sailings from Southampton covers the neighbouring year if your dates are flexible.

Where a discount is shown, it is a reduction from the price previously listed for that cabin grade on that sailing, not a comparison between cabin grades or against a brochure rate.
