P&O Cruises Celebrates Return to Full Service after Covid

P&O Cruises is set to mark a full return to service for its fleet this weekend. Arcadia will set sail for the Canary Islands on 27 March 2022, which will be the first time all six P&O Cruises ships have been operational since the start of the pandemic.

Paul Ludlow, President of P&O Cruises, described the occasion as “an important milestone” for the cruise line.

“We are delighted to be welcoming Arcadia back to the fleet,” he continued. “This ship is hugely popular with our loyal cruisers and I know the captain and team on board cannot wait to sail the fantastic itineraries we have planned for this year.

“Britannia and Azura have had a very successful season in the Caribbean from Barbados and will spend the summer in the Mediterranean. Iona has spent her maiden winter months in the Canary Islands and northern Europe and will soon head up to the spectacular Norwegian fjords for the summer of scenic cruising and thrilling adventures.”

The seventh ship to join the fleet, Arvia, will sail on her maiden voyage to the Canary Islands this December. She will then relocate to the Caribbean for a series of winter fly-cruise holidays. Like her sister ship Iona, Arvia will be powered by liquefied natural gas and boast a number of sustainable features.
