The Ultimate Christmas Holiday - Kids Cruise Free!
Date: 27 Jun 2007
Head to the South Pacific this Christmas or indulge in a tropical New Year celebration during the summer break and P&O Cruises will deliver the ultimate family gift, with kids cruising free on selected holidays.
The special offer applies to a range of itineraries on the 2050-passenger superliner Pacific Dawn and the 1900-passenger Pacific Sun during December and January.
Under the deal, children 12 years and below will have accommodation, main meals and entry to kids clubs provided free of charge when travelling in a cabin with two adults – making a P&O Cruises holiday one of the best value Christmas gifts around.
Kids can cruise free on a 10-night Pacific Dawn holiday departing Sydney on December 7 to the South Pacific with adult fares starting from $2096 per person in an inside twin cabin*.
Or book one of four Pacific Sun departures in the January school holidays, with adult fares for seven-night cruises to the South Pacific or tropical north Queensland starting from $1545 per person*.
The kids will love the excitement of Santa’s arrival at sea on Christmas Day, while parents will love not having to prepare, cook and clean up after Christmas dinner.
Additional great value summer holiday cruise deals are also available throughout December 2007 and January 2008, with up to 40 per cent off a range of cruises onboard Pacific Dawn and Pacific Sun.
With fully supervised kids clubs, staffed by qualified teachers and child care workers, it is no wonder that kids love sailing away on holiday and parents adore the chance to sit back and totally relax. Then when the ship arrives at its destination, fascinating cultures await, along with stunning snorkelling and swimming experiences in turquoise lagoons and tropical ports and islands to be explored.
P&O Cruises Australia has won accolades for its family-friendly holidays, taking out Holidays with Kids Magazine’s 2006 reader’s poll naming P&O cruises the best “child-friendly and all-round best family cruise operator”. Pacific Sun was also named “Best Value Family Ship” in this year’s Cruise Passenger Reader's Choice Awards.
