The Arcadia is a charming ship and we try to join it every year. This is the 2025 post refit video.
So refits are technical as well as comfort driven. Look at this one. New carpets everywhere.
This is the ship that was originally ordered by the Holland and America Line, but then taken over by Cunard and was very nearly the Queen Victoria. They decided to have larger balconies over the dance floor so she was moved over to P&O. But with more of a Holland and America layout, she is very slightly different to other P&O ships. The Globe is a very intimate venue, the theatre has some of P&O’s top acts. Take a look at the ship tour. Arcadia has a small friendly ship feel but actually can hold just over 2000 guests over 11 decks. She is similar in size to the Cunard ships and people here do mostly dress for the evening, there are some younger adult guests. But it is adult only.

WORLD CRUISE
On a world cruise, this ship quickly becomes home. However, less than half go all the way around. Sydney is the big change over port. See our films in Sydney. Our first Arcadia experience was the Hong Kong to Mumbai leg of a World Cruise. Meeting passengers doing the whole cruise it was amazing to see how easily they had made the ship their home.
The World Cruise was a different atmosphere to the Baltic Cruise. More relaxed whereas the Baltic was action packed! We have a great film about the Arcadia sailing under the Great Belt Bridge.
But then on the same cruise, two different groups of people can have totally different cruises by their selection of places they use onboard. The same ship can give totally different experiences and the great thing is you get to talk those over and wow each other over dinner.
This was a cake day on the world cruise. The cake and pastry chef went the extra mile and made yet another special treat. You don’t need to eat cakes to appreciate the effort the crew make to please passengers. The Arcadia has a crew of around 860 to a thousand, with a passenger capacity of around 2,050 .

This is fine food at the top of midships with a quiet bar next to it. It changes type and menu every few days.
