P&O Cruises has confirmed to TTG that the former P&O Cruises vessel Adonia will be returned to its fleet for summer 2017.
Carnival Corp became the first US-based company to offer regularly scheduled voyages between the US and Cuba in May. Voyages set sail from Miami from May 1.
Roger Frizzell, Carnival Corp’s chief information officer is reported in the US as saying that the firm planned to continue sailing to Cuba for many years, stating that the first cruises to the country had been “extremely successful”.
Frizzell said Carnival hopes to expand the Fathom experience to other markets in the future.
Paul Ludlow, P&O Cruises senior vice-president, said: “The Fathom experience has been expanded across our many Carnival Corp brands sailing to the Dominican Republic and beyond and we are extremely pleased to have Adonia, our well loved small ship, here for our guests beginning with the summer season, sailing a range of discovery itineraries.”
