What sets Viking apart from other Ocean cruise lines?
  • New ships, more opportunities: We will continue to grow and plan to double in size by 2028
  • Growing faster: We’ve grown from 400 to 4000 crew members on our Ocean ships since 2015
  • Brand new fleet of small ships: all of our Ocean ships are less than 10 years old, and more planned for the future
  • One main language on board: Viking crew and guests all speak English

At Viking Ocean Cruises you’ll have more opportunities to advance your career to new levels.
