• Unique partnership will see two £1,000 cruise vouchers given away to members of 50+ dating app, who will also benefit from 10% off any Ambassador cruise in 2023/24

Noticing a gap in the market for safe, yet exciting environments for over-50’s to meet like-minded individuals of a similar age, Ambassador Cruise Line has partnered with 50+ dating app, Ourtime.

Both Ambassador, the premium value cruise line, and Ourtime are in the business of connecting people, and with solo travel on the increase, the new partnership promises to encourage more meaningful relationships. A recent survey of 2,000 UK residents conducted by Ambassador revealed that meeting new people is something that 89% of those interested in solo travel are keen to do, suggesting those travelling alone are seeking to forge genuine relationships, either for friendship or romance.

The Ourtime dating site and app offers British singles over 50 the opportunity to meet new people – whether outside of their regular social circle, who have been through the same lived experiences, or are simply looking to expand their horizons. Akin to this, Ambassador’s no-fly cruises are perfect for single travellers, thanks to the special programme of events and attractive solo traveller fares that offer them plenty of opportunities to create new relationships whilst enjoying a premium-value cruising experience.

To celebrate the launch of the new partnership, Ambassador is proud to give away two £1,000 vouchers to Ourtime members, to give them a taste of cruising with the brand. Following the prize draw on 3 February, two lucky winners will be able to put these vouchers towards any 2023/24 cruise itinerary, with a wide variety of destinations on offer including the Mediterranean, Nordics, Canary Islands, North Africa and the Baltics, to name a few.

What’s more, between now and 31 January, all Ourtime members will also be able to benefit from an exclusive 10% discount off solo cabins on any Ambassador cruise in the 2023/24 season, on top of the already lucrative New Year offers. These include up to 30% off selected sailings, up to 50% off upgrades to Explorer and Expedition drink packages and up to £840 of complimentary onboard credit.

To benefit from the exclusive 10% Ambassador discount, members can use the code OURTIME10 when booking.

Gordon Nardini, spokesperson for Ambassador Cruise Line, said: “Ambassador offers great value single supplements and a safe and open-minded cruising environment to make solo travellers feel comfortable when onboard with us. We really value our solo guests and want to inspire more to travel with us, so partnering with Ourtime is a perfect fit, especially as they are encouraging 50+ singles to create their own destiny and enjoy their life. We can’t wait to welcome their members onboard, where they’ll not only form friendships or even relationships of a lifetime within the Ambassador community, but also enjoy amazing entertainment, outstanding cuisine and the warmest welcome at sea.”

Joanna Pons, Vice President at Ourtime, said: “Our users might be over 50,  but their love life is far from over – in fact, the best is still to come! Whether it’s marriage, romance or companionship they are looking for, we want to help them find that special person to celebrate this time of their life with. What better place to do that, than onboard one of Ambassador’s fantastic cruises, where they can experience excellent service and an amazing onboard offering.”
