50 new winter holidays from P&O Cruises in 2013 to far-flung places

P&O Cruises has unveiled a new collection of 50 exotic fly-cruise holidays on four ships in early 2013.

The holidays from 13 to 45 nights to iconic, far-flung destinations are on Adonia, Arcadia, Aurora and Azura and can be booked from July 15.

These exotic cruises are presented in a new Winter Holidays programme, combined with cruises on the other three ships in the P&O Cruises fleet – Oceana, Oriana and Ventura – offering holidays throughout the winter to the Caribbean, Canary Islands and Mediterranean.

Azura will be offering 23 winter cruise options in 2013

Free on board spending money, which increases per person depending on the grade of cabin booked, and Early Booking savings are available for bookings made before November 30, 2011. In addition, an extra 10% discount is available for bookings made by August 31.

P&O Cruises managing director Carol Marlow said: “These exotic fly-cruise holidays are perfect for those who unfortunately can’t be away for more than a few weeks but want to explore a particular part of the world, on a cruise that is tailor-made to combine some of the world’s most exciting destinations.

“No other kind of holiday offers the chance to visit destinations such as Singapore, Bali, Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney in little more than two weeks without having to live out of a backpack or take several long flights.

“It is a leisurely way to explore the world and one that more and more people are enjoying each year.”
