P&O Cruises has cancelled two upcoming voyages — one on MS Ventura in 2026 and another on MS Arvia in 2027 — citing different operational reasons and offering new alternatives and compensations.
The Ventura sailing, a 4-night roundtrip Amsterdam itinerary from Southampton scheduled for February 2026, will not proceed owing to an extended refit period required for the ship.
Affected customers will receive full refunds. As compensation, they will be offered OBC/onboard credit of GBP 25 per person if they rebook a different cruise by October 24th, 2025.
The other cancellation involves Arvia, for the 14-night Mediterranean cruise (Spain, France, Italy) scheduled to depart April 11th, 2027, from Southampton. That voyage has been withdrawn and replaced by two new 7-night itineraries: one sailing to the Norwegian fjords, the other to Spain and France. These replacement cruises were announced and went on sale on September 18, 2025.
Affected customers will be fully refunded and offered OBC of GBP 50 per person when they rebook by October 24th, 2025.
