Deb & Matt Chat on YT: The END of P&O Australia

Posted by | Jun 4, 2024 | |

Carnival Corporation has made the announcement that the P&O Cruises Australia brand will be NO MORE after almost a century of operation and the fleet will be changing as a result! Lets discuss in this live stream!

Thats right the FUN SHIP brand is going to be “sunset”

P&O Statement (Extract)
“P&O Cruises Australia is a storied brand with an amazing team, and we are extremely proud of everything we have accomplished together in Australia and the broader region,” said Weinstein. “However, given the strategic reality of the South Pacific’s small population and significantly higher operating and regulatory costs, we’re adjusting our approach to give us the efficiencies we need to continue delivering an incredible cruise experience year-round to our guests in the region. Carnival Corporation & plc remains committed to Australia and we will continue to be the largest cruise operator in the region with 19 ships calling on 78 destinations and representing almost 60% of the market.”

Full statement at https://www.carnivalcorp.com/news-releases/news-release-details/carnival-corporation-strategically-align-portfolio-and-absorb-po

We will be following the updates and progress on this rebranding closely. Make sure you like and subscribe to keep up to date.

Join us for a live stream as we discuss the major changes happening within P&O Australia. Carnival Corporation, the parent company, is rebranding the P&O Australia ships, leading to the disappearance of the beloved brand. Stay tuned to learn more about the huge transformations in the cruise industry!
