P&O

Cruise with P&O over Christmas and New Year and they’ll fill your time with festive cheer. Make merry with a delightful short break, or try a calypso Christmas in the Caribbean. Whichever cruise you opt for, you’ll enjoy a winter holiday with festive cheer. And on board, the magic will flow freely.

Expect a traditional Christmas dinner, beautiful decorations, festive-themed entertainment and festive films available to view in on-board cinemas. P&O’s family-friendly ships will have a special Christmas Day children’s tea, children’s parties and a visit from Father Christmas!

Christmas highlights

• Beautifully decorated ships – There is a magical atmosphere onboard as P&O’s ships are transformed with a stunning Christmas tree and garlands in the Atrium.
• Festive film favourites – Christmas films will be shown in onboard cinemas and on in-cabin TVs. After all, Christmas Day simply wouldn’t be the same without a classic family cartoon or a timeless tale, would it?
• Presents for all guests – P&O’s festive cruises promise a magical atmosphere onboard. Their ships are transformed by sparkling decorations, creating a collective sense of Christmas cheer. And because you’ve been especially good all year, expect a special gift too.
• Sing as you sail – Nothing creates that magical Christmas spirit quite like a carol or two. A local choir and entertainers will sing off all departures. So why not join in and celebrate with an old favourite? All voices welcome – young or old, fill your lungs with festive cheer.
• Traditional Christmas dinner – It wouldn’t be Christmas without a traditional dinner. That’s why P&O serve up all your favourites onboard, cooked to perfection. Leave peeling spuds and basting turkeys to their talented chefs while you enjoy a tipple with newfound friends. And exchange last-minute supermarket madness for a holiday to remember.
• A visit from Father Christmas – All family-friendly ships will feature children’s parties, a pantomime and a visit from Father Christmas. He’ll be guided on board wherever we are in the world (via satellite GPS, naturally). Selected ships will also feature a grotto, so children will be able to make their pressie requests in person.

Cunard

A Cunard Christmas exudes style and sophistication. Christmas Eve could be toasted with a perfectly chilled bottle of champagne in the Champagne Bar and Christmas morning celebrated with a relaxed breakfast in bed, in preparation for a lavish festive celebration over dinner. You could close the special day with a show, dancing in the Queens Room or perhaps a cocktail to toast your travelling companions’ good health.

Of course, younger guests will be a central part of the magic with parties, gifts and family activities all to be enjoyed – Santa Claus himself very often visits Cunard ships too.

No matter where in the world you’re celebrating the festive season – Caribbean or Canary Islands – you’ll be sure to have a wonderful festive holiday, surrounded by Cunard Christmas traditions and good cheer.

Christmas highlights

• The Christmas Tree – The Grand Lobby of each ship is the centre of life on board, so it’s only fitting that each December a suitably beautiful Christmas tree, complete with traditional decorations, takes pride of place.
• Decorating the shops – If you’re travelling over Christmas, Cunard’s shops are the perfect relaxed antidote to busy streets ashore. Their buyers have spent months working with the world’s best-known luxury brands to find the perfect festive gifts for your family (or maybe for you). Onboard, you’ll find famous names such as Pandora, Radley, Tag Heur and Chanel. You’ll also find Cunard branded gift ideas, like the always popular Cunard bear.
• The Christmas Village – One of Cunard’s finest festive traditions is the creation of a gingerbread village. The Chef Patissier spends weeks planning, baking and icing a whole edible festive scene, bigger than you’ll likely to have ever seen before.
• Festive menus – Just like at home, the centrepiece of Cunard’s festive celebration is the Christmas dinner and theirs has been planned to the smallest detail to make sure you want for nothing. Naturally Roast Norfolk Turkey and traditional Christmas Pudding feature on the menu, and even at sea Boxing Day wouldn’t be complete without a buffet.
• Festive drinks – No matter what your Christmas drink of choice may be, Cunard have it covered. Whether you choose Champagne, a Commodore Club cocktail, a special bottle of wine or a decadent hot chocolate, their experts have worked tirelessly with suppliers from all over the world to ensure you enjoy only the best over the festive season.
