Hot off the press, P&O Cruises have announced five new 2023 sailings across Arvia and Iona, their two NEW Excel class ships.
Designed to invite the outdoors in, these ships make the sea the star, making sure you’re never far from an ocean panorama or a view of your next destination. Cool off in the Infinity Pool or lounge with cocktail in hand in a relaxing whirlpool. People-watch from a cosy vantage point in the Grand Atrium’s Vistas Café Bar with its huge expanse of glass, or while-away the afternoon at the stylish Sunset Bar and listen to the wake of the ship.
Iona’s brand-new sailing will be a 7-night visit to the Norwegian Fjords on 16th September 2023 and will take in four picturesque ports including Haugesund, Olden, Alesund and Stavanger. Surrounded by beautiful coastline, spectacular waterfalls and majestic fjords, passengers will be spoilt by the visual treats around them.

The four new Arvia sailings will include a Western Mediterranean cruise on 14th October, visiting the likes of Lisbon, Malaga, Barcelona and Cadiz (Seville). With beauty waiting at every stop, there’s plenty to explore. Famed for its art, architecture, cultures, cuisines, beaches and more – the Mediterranean is a holiday full of rich experiences and it’s perfect for adults or families to experience together.
The remaining new sailings are a variety of options for a Transatlantic Caribbean cruise departing Southampton on 27th October and ranging from 15 to 23-nights. Visiting Gran Canaria en route before crossing the transatlantic to call at Tortola, St. Kitts, Martinique and Barbados to name but a few.
