Scheduled to launch in December next year, P&O Cruises’ Arvia will homeport in Barbados and Antigua, offering a Caribbean maiden season of fly/cruise journeys from January to March, 2023.

Maiden season

Arvia holidays, alongside the rest of our winter 2022 season, will be on sale very shortly,’ said Paul Ludlow, president, P&O Cruises. ‘We cannot wait to bring our newest ship to our glorious home port of Barbados and also to Antigua, which will be a first-time turnaround port for P&O Cruises.’

He added, ‘The Caribbean is the optimal maiden season destination for Arvia; a ship where every facet, including unique retractable roof SkyDome and Altitude Skywalk high ropes, is designed to provide exceptional views of the ocean, seashore and surrounding destinations.

‘From the very initial concept Arvia has been created to be the epitome of a sunshine resort, developed to be an ideal way to enjoy the Caribbean’s turquoise waters and white sandy beaches.’
