P&O turns 175 today

P&O Cruises celebrate their 175th birthday today. For the first time in the cruise line s history, all seven of its ships will meet in Southampton and kick-off the year-long celebrations, as reported in eTravel Blackboard.

Each ship will set sail on individual heritage themed Grand Event voyages following a send-off that is expected to include entertainment and champagne deck parties as they form a procession out of Southampton.

The ships will meet once again in the open water and salute each other before continuing on their voyages.
