Ensuring the health and safety of our crew members and our passengers may be the greatest gift we can give this Christmas. In light of the lingering public health concerns at this time, North Pole Express ticket sales for this year are currently on hold.

Our team is being careful to follow the guidance of the CDC and our local health departments and will continue to do so throughout this evolving situation. In addition to all safety measures already in place, we wanted to share with you some of the actions we are taking.

Your safety is our highest priority. We kindly insist that all passengers wear a mask at this time. Thank you for your respectful consideration of those around you.
