P&O Cruises Australia extends cruise pause again
P&O Cruises Australia has extended its cruise pause once again for a further six weeks.
The voluntary pause applies to cruises scheduled to depart on or before 17 September 2021.
It is being applied as the cruise industry continues to work with relevant government authorities to establish a pathway for a restart of cruising in Australia.
Guests with affected bookings will be notified and given options either directly or via their appointed travel agent.
"We are supporting our industry association as it works with governments and public health authorities to develop a framework for the successful resumption of cruising," P&O Cruises Australia President Sture Myrmell said.
"We look forward to the day when a pathway is confirmed for cruising’s return so that we can welcome everyone back onboard. For now, we continue to assist our guests in every way we can in spite of the current uncertainty."
Guests can track the progress of their future cruise credit or refund request via the tracking tool found on P&O’s website at www.pocruises.com.au.
