Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Embarkation Chaos & 90s Vibes! Our FINAL P&O Australia Cruise | Pacific Encounter to Carnival

Posted by | May 21, 2025 | |

It’s the end of an era! Join us as we set sail on our very last P&O Australia cruise aboard the Pacific Encounter — now rebranded as Carnival Encounter. This isn’t your average embarkation day… delays, disorganisation, and an approaching cyclone made for a chaotic start to our nostalgic 90s themed cruise! 🌪️🕺

From long lines at the Brisbane International Cruise Terminal to unexpected boarding hiccups, we take you behind the scenes of this unforgettable embarkation experience. But it’s not all stress — once onboard, we dive into delicious dining, get into the 90s party spirit, and reconnect with cruise creator friends like Rob & Ali from Robynellic.

🚢 Whether you’re a die-hard P&O fan, curious about the Carnival switchover, or just love a good cruise vlog, this is the perfect kickoff to our brand-new series.
