dannyr Posted September 3, 2018 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Does anyone happen to know the location of the Coin on the Pacific Aria? As outlined here , when a ship is constructed a coin is generally welded somewhere onto the ship. It's a good luck tradition dating back years. Royal Caribbean make a big deal of it and . I've previously located the coin on the Diamond Princess and Island Princess. I know that's it's often harder with rebranded and refit ships, but does anyone happen to know where the Aria's coin is? I'm sailing on her in a few weeks time, and while I have sent an email both to P&O & HAL (her former owner), hoping someone may be able to clue me in as to the location on this ship.

dannyr Posted September 24, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted September 24, 2018 As an update, whilst I still waiting on P&O to respond to my email I have received a response from Holland America. They escalated the matter up through the chain and I got a reply from the "Special Advisor - Office of the President". They have tracked down for this ship that "During the coinceremony, observed to bring good fortune, a Dutch guilder was welded to theforward mast of the ship"[/QUOTE] And they have even found photos from the ceremony to help my investigations. https://i.**********/B5a7Diz.jpg https://i.**********/rx5jmFI.jpg I'm going to take the email from HAL with me on board and see if I can track it down!
