P&O Arcadia Refit Completed November 2024

Posted: 28/11/2024

Last year, Carnival UK, which owns P&O Cruises, announced that the P&O Arcadia refit was scheduled to take place in November 2024. Alongside Aurora, the other exclusively for adults ship in the fleet, Arcadia is set to receive a multi-million-pound investment.

The P&O Arcadia refit in 2024 will see significant enhancements made across the ship. As details of the Arcadia refit emerge, we’ll be sure to share them with you – but for now, here’s everything we know about what’s in store.

“Arcadia and Aurora are two of our most beloved ships in the fleet offering guests a more intimate experience in stylish surroundings. After a busy season hosting guests on longer duration itineraries and world cruises, we will be making sure that both ships look their absolute finest ahead of the summer season.” – Paul Ludlow, President of Carnival UK

Before the P&O Arcadia refit 2024, some spaces have already benefited from an update, which was completed in May 2023.

The upgrades included new balcony furniture, new chairs in cabins, as well as new furniture on the ship’s open deck areas. The Neptune Pool was also updated with new lounge chairs, sofas, tables and armchairs.

Arcadia has also received several major refits during her 19-year history, including one of the most significant, which took place in 2017.

Exact details of what will be covered by the Arcadia refit have yet to be released. However, there is every chance that P&O Cruises will be modernising key areas across the ship, with particular emphasis on the cabins.

The suites and mini-suites will benefit from enhanced bathrooms, and are also set to receive new carpets and curtains. A selection of cabins on board are being kitted out with new curtains, scatter cushions, desk chairs, sofas and carpets.

Many of your favourite venues are being renovated during the Arcadia refit 2024, such as the Meridian and Belvedere Restaurants, Neptune Bar, East Bar and Sindhu. Meanwhile, the Oasis Spa and Salon will be refreshed with new upholstery at the entrance, and flooring throughout. The Crow’s Nest and The Rising Sun will likewise be updated.

If the recent refit of Britannia is anything to go by, there will be plenty to look forward to on board P&O Cruises Arcadia
