About Havila Pollux
Havila Pollux is a Havila Voyages cruise ship, in service since 2023. She measures 15,519 gross tons and carries 468 guests with a crew of 76. She sails Norwegian Fjords itineraries. We rate her 3.5 out of 5.
Havila Pollux, the fourth and last of the series, followed the same path as Havila Polaris: begun at the Barreras yard in Spain, completed at Tersan in Turkey and delayed by sanctions on the fleet's financier. She left Tersan a day after her sister, arrived in Bergen on 17 August 2023 and began her first regular round trip on 23 August. With 179 cabins, a restaurant serving dishes from local suppliers along the coast, LNG engines and a large battery pack, she is identical to her three sisters and sails the full Bergen–Kirkenes–Bergen route.
