                         CRUISE UPDATE











          NEW-LOOK PACIFIC DAWN EMERGES
          P&O Cruises’ Pacific Dawn has emerged from a major
          multimillion-dollar refit with an exciting new look
          including a new state-of-the-art waterpark with two
          exhilarating waterslides and an interactive kids-only
          play area. In other new features, guests can now
          dine at The Pantry, an international marketplace
          of fresh food outlets that replaces the traditional
          ship’s buffet. In addition to tried-and-tested outlets
          in Pacific Dawn’s Pantry is a new Mediterranean-
          inspired offering called Nic and Toni’s. Also on offer
          is the extremely popular Poolside Grill, providing
          casual dining options.
          Several of Pacific Dawn’s public spaces have been
          redesigned to mirror the striking contemporary
          look that has become a trademark of the P&O fleet,
          including the Atrium, Charlie’s, The Orient and the
          Promenade Bar, which will be styled with similar
          décor to sister ships Pacific Aria and Pacific Eden.
