With the return to guest operations of the cruise ship Arcadia this week, P&O Cruises will have its full fleet return to service. Arcadia will sail to the Canary Islands on March 27, marking an important milestone for P&O Cruises as all six ships will be back in operation after its pause in operations.

P&O Cruises president Paul Ludlow expressed his excitement adding that this is truly a cause for celebration for loyal cruisers and the crew.

"We are delighted to be welcoming Arcadia back to the fleet. This ship is hugely popular with our loyal cruisers and I know the captain and team on board cannot wait to sail the fantastic itineraries we have planned for this year.

We are delighted that with Arcadia’s return to service this coming Sunday, our full fleet will be sailing again.

"Britannia and Azura have had a very successful season in the Caribbean from Barbados and will spend the summer in the Mediterranean. Iona has spent her maiden winter months in the Canary Islands and northern Europe and will soon head up to the spectacular Norwegian fjords for the summer of scenic cruising and thrilling adventures.

"It is evident that our guests are reassured by the steps we have taken to protect their health and wellbeing and that they are delighted to be back on board re-igniting their passion for travel.

P&O Cruises' newest LNG-powered ship Arvia, will join the fleet in December as the seventh ship. The maiden voyage will be to The Canary Islands followed by a winter season of fly/cruise holidays in the Caribbean from Barbados. Arvia, which, similar to its sister ship Iona, will be powered by liquefied natural gas, will have many sustainable and environmentally-friendly innovations and technology on board.
