Subject to government approval, the 77,441gt ship will berth in Sydney during ramping up procedures to prepare for the restart of cruising.
Opportunity for suppliers
‘Our suppliers are at last seeing that the restart of cruising also means the restart of opportunity for them after two long years,’ Marguerite Fitzgerald, president of Carnival Australia and P&O Cruises Australia, said.
‘We are back in the marketplace for the first time in two years for the supply of a wide range of products,’ Fitzgerald said.
‘For its first cruise, Pacific Explorer will need more than 300 pallets of supplies with around a third carrying around 50 tonnes of fresh produce.
‘These numbers will increase further as Pacific Encounter and Pacific Adventure return to service to cruise from Australia.'
