National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions has announced an expansion of its Alaska program beginning in 2027, reinforcing the company’s longstanding leadership in one of its most sought-after destinations. To meet strong and growing traveler demand, the company will charter the Greg Mortimer for a three-year period, enhancing its ability to explore more, offer new itineraries, and continue building on its pioneering legacy as the National Geographic Sea Bird and National Geographic Sea Lion prepare for their farewell season in 2026.
“I am incredibly proud of the exceptional, unique, and intimate Alaska experience that our ships and our expert expedition team deliver. Demand for our Alaska voyages continues to grow, and I’m thrilled that with the introduction of a new ship to our Alaska fleet, we can welcome even more explorers and also offer exciting new itineraries to our collection,” said Natalya Leahy, CEO of Lindblad Expeditions. “We are equally grateful to honor the final farewell season of the Sea Bird and Sea Lion in 2026. These beloved ships have been the backdrop to countless memorable adventures for our guests over many years. We invite travelers to join us for this special farewell season.”
