Ambassador Launches Regional Coach Transfer Program

Ambassador Cruise Line has launched a new Regional Coach Transfer program that will make it easier for guests across the UK to enjoy a hassle-free start to their no-fly cruise holiday from London Tilbury.

Available on selected sailings departing between January and March 2027, "Get On Board. We'll Take It From Here" will allow guests to travel directly from 10 regional pick-up points across the UK to London Cruise Terminal, removing the need to drive or arrange overnight accommodation before joining their cruise.

Pick-up points include Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff and Portsmouth. Return coach transfers are available from £70 per person.

Ambassador said in a press release that the program, launched on June 2, 2026, has been introduced following feedback from travel agent partners and guests who identified transport to London Tilbury as a potential barrier when booking winter sailings.

Nicola Harper, head of distribution at Ambassador Cruise Line, said: "One of the reasons guests choose Ambassador is the simplicity of no-fly cruising and we are always looking for ways to make that experience even easier."

"'Get On Board. We'll Take It From Here' is all about making cruising more accessible, more convenient and ultimately more enjoyable from the very start of the holiday," added Harper.

"Our aim is for this to become a year-round part of the Ambassador experience. We are launching initially on selected winter sailings but will look to expand the program should it prove as popular with guests as we and our friends in the trade believe it will be."

Selected sailings included in Ambassador's Regional Coach Transfer program include the following:

January 2027

• The Ambience — "Caribbean Sunsets & South American Secrets"
• The Ambition — "Gems of the Caribbean Sea"

February 2027

• The Ambition — "Winter Sunshine Escape to the Canary Islands"
• The Ambience — "Delights of Western France & Spain Explorer"

March 2027

• The Ambience — "Norway's Land of the Northern Lights"
• The Ambition — "Norway's Land of the Northern Lights"
• The Ambience — "Springtime Fjordlands"
• The Ambition — "Easter Voyage to France, Spain & Portugal"

Regional Coach Transfers are available on selected Ambassador sailings departing between January and March 2027 aboard the Ambience and Ambition.
