What are your best P&O memories?
Had such a lovely cruise in mid 2024 on this ship
My first two cruises were on the Dawn Princess, my third was on Pacific Explorer. She will always have a special place in my heart.
We were on her in January 2024. Ita was lovely ship ❤
Farewell P&O Pacific Explorer. Thanks for the Wonderful Memories. We'll miss You 😥💖⛴🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
As a melbournian, I would often see Explorer at Station Pier, but I never booked a cruise on her, something I regret now. Friends said she was a great ship 🙂
Just got of the pacific explorer today after back to back cruises Melbourne Fremantle and exmouth Fremantle the cruises where vrey much full and everyone having a great time There was plenty discussion about us Fremantle based cruisers will miss these great opportunities Fremantle and Perth are great places to explore
I’m travelling on the third last Pacific Adventure cruise in a couple weeks
Please stop panicking us British people. P&O is a prime and lucrative brand that isn’t going. What is going is P&O Australia. Please make it clear.
We dd a NZ cruise on the Dawn Princess out of Melbourne Dec 2012, P&O Explorer our of Melbourne in Dec 2024 but was run down a bit from the Dawn princess days
It looks like a floating milk carton.
the Sun class vessels were a lovely design
Do you have any insight as to why Carnival think their “name brand” will to more successful than their P&O brand in Australia?
Enjoyed working on her as an Enrichment/Destination Speaker when she was the Dawn Princess.
Hi Chris, are you on the QA Saturday week out of Auckland?
Watching this video onboard the final cruise is so surreal
Very sad, my first cruise on Princess was on Sea princess (2006) herexact sister. Back in the day, cruising was comfortable and reasonable. now, princesses opted for these mega ships with way too many passengers and nickel and dime you trying to capture revenue at every turn.
Princess ships should never have been transferred to P & O. Princess cruises were far superior to P&O. Like comparing chalk and cheese really. Bye the way ,I’ve done several cruises with both lines.
me and dad will be on the last ever p and o cruise out of brisbane australia to new caladonia on the 8th march 2025 this is our second time in 2 years on the p and o encounter our first cruise ever to new zealand 2024 with our co workers once in a lifetime
