Bookings for P&O Cruises' holidays hit record

In the first week of January, P&O Cruises registered record bookings for their trips – up to 84 per cent more reservations when compared to the same period last year

The strong start to the year was marked on January 7^th, which was the company's biggest booking day ever.

Pacific Eden and Pacific Aria, the cruise line's latest acquisitions, have made a powerful entry into the company's fleet, with high demands from cruisers around the world.

P&O Cruises president Sture Myrmell declared:

“We’ve been selling our expanded five-ship fleet for more than 12 months, but the bookings for Pacific Aria and Pacific Eden are really pouring in now that the ships are here and people can see for themselves how impressive they are.

“In 2016, P&O will welcome more than 420,000 passengers on-board our five ships – reinforcing our position as Australia’s leading home cruise brand.

“Our 2016 inventory is filling up fast, so travelers should move quickly if they want to cruise this year.

“We can’t wait to take the next steps in the evolution of our brand with the addition of Pacific Explorer next year and our brand new ship in 2019, as well as the debut of a raft of new ports and itineraries.

“There’s going to be lots of great cruise news to share over the coming months.”
