HX reports record suite bookings and extends Greenland Promise through 2028

HX Expeditions has closed its Arctic season with what it describes as its highest-ever suite bookings across 31 sailings. It has also extended its Greenland Promise through the 2028 season.

What it means commercially: strong suite demand could tighten suite inventory on 2027-28 Svalbard and Greenland departures. Advisors with high-end clients should consider booking early rather than waiting. The extended Greenland Promise gives advisors a stable, multi-year program to cite when selling Greenland.

Caveat: the suite figures and the Promise details come from HX's own release and are unverified. Confirm the terms directly with HX before quoting them to clients.

  • 31 Arctic sailings in the season just closed
  • Highest-ever suite bookings, per HX
  • Greenland Promise now runs through the 2028 season
  • Figures are HX's own; verify before quoting
