A New York cruise holiday puts you right in the heart of the Big Apple; Manhattan. From the trees and lakes of Central Park down to New York’s now tallest 104-floor One World Trade Center building, it’s a very walkable island, about half the size of London. However you want to explore, we’ll help you tick off your bucket list highlights here on an incredible stay in what is without doubt one of the world’s most memorable cities. Citing the COVID crisis' impact on the passenger shipping industry, in early-July 2020, P&O UK sold the cruise ship Oceana.

In June 2018, P&O UK announced that Oriana leaves the fleet in August 2019. The liner (now named Piano Land) was sold to the Chinese company Well Star Travel Cruise (brand of CTS-China Travel Services International). The Chinese company plans short cruises from Chinese homeports to ports in Japan and Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Philippines, Indonesia). P&O Cruises UK (POcruises.com) is a British-American passenger shipping company headquartered at Carnival House (Southampton, England) and operated/managed by Carnival UK. P&O was originally a constituent of “Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company” (1797-founded/1966-defunct) which was the world's oldest cruise line that operated the first-ever passenger ships.

The above-listed new packages are for P&O UK ships only and introduced/first offered on the liners Iona and Ventura (starting May 20, 2023) and available fleetwide since July 2023. In May 2023, P&O UK introduced four new drink packages available fleetwide but only on longer voyages, with durations of at least 5 nights (or longer). Elsewhere there's the Horizon buffet on Deck 16 as well as Deck 8's The Quays, a food court which offers small prepared plates alongside stands serving noodles, fish and chips and "Roast in the Quays". This is another new-to-the-line offering and is an original take on the traditional Sunday Roast -- dished up in a giant Yorkshire pudding instead of on a plate. Due to constant changes each year, we’re unable to specify which airlines we use. However, once your flights are confirmed, you’ll be able to see them in My P&O Cruises.

On fly-cruises, both the charter and scheduled flight luggage restrictions vary, but are usually between 20kg and 23kg per person. Log into my.pocruises.com and visit the Flights page to view your air carrier baggage allowances. Please note that if your airline allowance is greater than 23kg, we ask that no individual item of luggage weighs more than 23kg, in order to be safely handled by the ship’s crew and airline baggage handlers. Just make sure all your bags have the P&O Cruises luggage label attached before you check in at the airport and we’ll do the rest.
Then, P&O Princess Cruises was created- a new company independent of P&O; consisting of AIDA Cruises, Princess Cruises, P&O Cruises Australia, P&O Cruises (UK), and later "Ocean Village" and A-Rosa Cruises (riverboats). Three of the vessels are designed with gross tonnage 133,500 tons, LOA length is 323 m (1060 ft) and capacity 4000 passengers plus 1450 crew (2 are for Costa Asia, 1 for P&O AU). One ship with GT 143,700 tons and capacity 3560 passengers is for Princess. Both Costa ships are exclusively for the booming Chinese market. Each vessel is powered by two MAN diesel engines (model 14V48 / 60CR) plus three MAN diesel engines (medium-speed, model 8L48 / 60CR), providing total power output 62,400 kW.

In June 2011 was announced that P&O UK will expand the fleet with a new 141,000-ton unit built by Fincantieri. In January 2014, with Britannia was introduced a new livery based on UK's Union Flag. P&O (UK and AU) holds as market share ~5% of the worldwide cruise industry. Both companies (P&O Australia and P&O UK) were created in 1977, re-branding P&O's passenger division. Arcadia was the fleet's first adults-only liner, followed by Adonia (now Azamara Pursuit), Oriana and Aurora (April 2000). Step aboard a traditional Chinese cruiser and weave your way through Victoria Harbour.
Alternatively most airlines allow you to check-in online 24 hours prior to departure, at which time seat reservations are usually free of charge, though this does vary by airline. With cruise holidays starting from just two nights, British Isles cruises are an ideal way to take time out from a busy lifestyle. At 344 metres long, each of these family-friendly Excel class ships has 15 guest decks and a normal operating capacity of 5,200 guests and 1,800 crew. Of course, the bigger the ship, the more there is to experience.
And there is a 3rd "PandO" company (not part of Carnival plc) - the UK-based P&O Ferries. If you’ve arranged your own flights or are planning to get to your starting destination a few days before you sail, then you’ll need to organise your own transport to the cruise terminal. Your booking confirmation containing everything you need to know about your holiday, including flights, will be available nearer to your departure date via My P&O Cruises. When you book your fly-cruise, you can choose from a range of regional airports on the fly-cruise booking summary page. Beautiful Sydney, exciting Hong Kong, buzzing Dubai or fascinating Petra (from Aqaba). Whether you choose The World Cruise, a Classic Southern Hemisphere Journey or one of our Grand Tours, you’ll visit a huge range of diverse destinations.
But, with the right preparation and led by one of our expert guides, you have the best chance of successfully seeking them out. Baggage arrangements for your flight back to the UK will be confirmed during your cruise. Your baggage is collected from outside your cabin the night before you disembark. Once you’ve arrived at the overseas airport, our representatives will be on hand to make sure you’re all set and guide you to your coach transfer to the ship. Choose your preferred seat on selected Caribbean and Mediterranean charter flights when you check-in online with your air carrier (usually 24 hours before your flight).
