Whether venturing near or far, our cruises offer a memorable holiday experience that’s truly Like No Place On Earth. Over the years we’ve led the Australasian cruise industry, and established ourselves as the region’s only “home brand” and experts in delivering memorable cruise holidays. Our current fleet of P&O cruise ships consists of the Pacific Dawn, the Pacific Aria, and our flagship Pacific Explorer. In the latest chapter in P&O’s history, we are excited to welcome the Pacific Adventure to our fleet in 2020 and the Pacific Encounter in 2021.
