Description

On P&O’s South Pacific cruises you can discover a collection of incredible islands offering a unique experience in the midst of the Ocean. Here, natural beauty is found in soft, sandy beaches, stunning harbours and lucid seas.

From the tropical flora of Fiji, to Tahiti’s deep lagoons, these isles exhibit some of the most idyllic scenery anywhere on earth. The locals are also as welcoming as their reputation would have us believe. Nowhere is this more evident than on an excursion to see the traditional songs and dances for which the islanders have become so famous.

A South Pacific cruise with P&O gives you the chance to experience a real sense of freedom exploring these dreamlike subtropical islands, while enjoying pleasing temperatures and a total feeling of escape.

Disability information

What facilities can I expect in an accessible cabin?

All of P&O Cruises’ wheelchair-accessible accommodation features wide doorways into the cabin and bathroom, as well as sufficient floor space for wheelchair manoeuvrability. All wheelchair-accessible balcony cabins feature ramped access to the balcony. The bathrooms in all accessible cabins are wet-room-style shower rooms with a flush threshold into the cabin and grab rails for the shower and toilet.

We can also hire additional equipment for use in your cabin, including hoists, electric beds and shower chairs. (Equipment availability is dependent on departure port.)

What assistance is offered to disabled customers?

When sailing from Southampton, P&O Cruises can offer wheelchair assistance for embarkation and disembarkation. In the event of an emergency and when passengers are called to their Muster Stations, all passenger cabins are checked and evacuated by the cabin stewards. Any passenger who requires assistance getting from their cabin to the Muster Station will be given the required assistance by the ship’s specially trained Passenger Assistance Party.

Special evacuation chairs are available on all ships and will be utilised to transport passengers down stairs if required. This assistance will be arranged/requested by the cabin stewards evacuating the cabins. For further information regarding this please call us on 0161 260 2218.

Do you cater for children with disabilities in the children’s clubs?

P&O Cruises cater for disabled children’s accessibility requirements, but they do not offer one-to one-care. If this is required, a parent or carer needs to be present at all times. All disabled children are more than welcome to join in with all activities and events run by the youth department.

What facilities are available for blind or visually impaired people?

In addition to Braille in lift areas, there is also a selection of talking books available from the library. P&O Cruises are able to provide menus in large print or Braille, which must be requested prior to departure. Should you require a menu in large print or Braille, please tell us before making your booking.

Can I take my mobility scooter on board?

If you wish to take a mobility scooter on board, you must be booked into the appropriate cabin. These include wheelchair-accessible cabins and selected suites and mini-suites.

Mobility scooters are not to be “parked” anywhere on the ship outside entertainment, dining or other public venues. This is because their presence will impede a safe evacuation in an emergency situation and these areas are designated to be kept clear as per the ship’s safety certification. Passengers who leave scooters parked in these areas will be asked to remove them.

Can blind or visually impaired passengers travel alone?

A cruise ship is quite different to your familiar home environment. After time the ship itself will become more familiar; however, each port is different and the ship has to use different gangways and change disembarkation arrangements to suit the circumstances on the day. These changes can be made at very short notice. For these reasons, and for your own comfort and overall enjoyment, we would recommend you are accompanied by a travelling companion who can help you get your bearings and assist you both on board and ashore. The P&O Cruises crew can provide limited arm assistance and information or directions, but they cannot provide sustained or long-term assistance.
