Oriana refurbishments delayed, cruises cancelled

The P&O Oriana is due to go into dry dock later this Autumn as she is scheduled to have some changes made to her.

The main change for the Oriana will be that she will be changing from a family friendly ship to an adult only ship.

This I am sure will be welcomed as this will even up the spread of adult only and family friendly ships in the P&O fleet.

Unfortunately I have had some of my passengers effected by this and their cruises have been cancelled by P&O due to the delay.

Fortunately P&O has let my passengers either book onto an alternative Arcadia sailing which is a day longer at no extra cost or has let them cancel free of charge with on board credit held for them for their next booking.

I can't really blame P&O, they have dealt with these matters well and I think and I am sure that they aren't too happy about the Oriana delay either, it must be costing them a fortune.
