General sales will open on October 22, 2025, and bookings made before December 17, 2025, will receive special benefits, including a 10% discount and reduced deposit on both Select and Early Saver.

The Iona ship will join its sister ship Arvia in the Caribbean, offering 14-night cruises with flights included, departing from Barbados, Antigua and, new for the season, St. Kitts, between October 2027 and April 2028.
The Arcadia and Aurora ships will offer a wide variety of itineraries, some available for all ages and others exclusively for adults. Cruises to the North Cape, the Baltic, and Western Europe will be available during the winter of 2028.
The Aurora will return to South America with a 75-night Grand Tour in 2028, which will include stops in Brazil and Chile.
For the first time since its inauguration in 2015, the Britannia will be permanently based in Southampton year-round, offering varied itineraries covering the Atlantic Islands, the Caribbean and the Mediterranean.
The Azura will operate a selection of cruises with flights included to the Canary Islands, which will include stops in Madeira and Morocco, visiting ports such as Agadir and Casablanca.
The Ventura will embark on a new seven-night cruise around Scandinavia, with New Year's 2027 celebrations in Southampton, before continuing on to Copenhagen, Oslo and Kristiansand.
Meanwhile, the Arcadia's World Cruise 2028 will be one of the longest in P&O Cruises' history, lasting 124 nights and including a leg through East Asia, with stops in Nagasaki and Tokyo (Japan).
During the season, P&O Cruises will visit nine ports that have not been on its itineraries for at least five years, including Tokyo, San Diego and Hawaii.
“Overall, the new program offers agents numerous selling points and new marketing opportunities,” said Ruth Venn, associate vice president of sales and distribution at P&O Cruises.
