AE Expeditions is marking 35 years of expedition travel with a limited-time offer on selected voyages to Antarctica, the Arctic and other remote destinations. Travellers can save up to 30% and receive up to 2600 pounds in air credit per person on qualifying departures.

The promotion applies to select bookings made and deposited between 1 July and 30 September 2026. The company says interest remains strong in experience-led travel to wildlife-rich polar regions, coastlines, rainforests, historic islands and other natural landmarks.

The offer covers a range of small-ship, expedition-led itineraries under the AE Expeditions programme. It comes as more travellers look for journeys that focus on wildlife, scenery and less-visited places rather than standard cruise routes.

AE Expeditions did not give a full list of eligible voyages in the brief announcement, but said the promotion includes select Antarctica, Arctic and global departures. The company used the anniversary to highlight the scale of its current programme and its long-running focus on expedition cruising.

Small-ship travel has become a growing part of the luxury and adventure market, with operators promoting access to difficult-to-reach regions alongside expert-led shore visits. AE Expeditions is using the anniversary campaign to position itself squarely in that trend.

The timing of the offer also reflects a wider push by travel brands to secure advance bookings for 2026 departures. Limited-time discounts and air credits remain among the most common incentives used by expedition cruise companies to attract early sales.

For travellers, the headline savings may make some of the more expensive polar and remote-region itineraries more accessible. But the offer is restricted to selected departures and requires both booking and deposit within the stated window.
