trickyoat Posted September 11, 2017 #51 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Adonia is booked into Icelandic ports in 2019, having appeared on Akureryi's 2019 list in the last few weeks or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clodia Posted September 11, 2017 #52 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Someone I know contacted P and O about Adonia, and was told that her return from Fathom was unexpectedly early, which has meant a complete re-think and that new itineraries are being planned now. The person he spoke to said they had no intention of getting rid of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artemis10 Posted September 12, 2017 #55 Share Posted September 12, 2017 We are currently on Adonia and a reliable source (not another passenger) told us that carnival are currently negotiating with an unnamed company to sell Adonia and to expect an announcement in the next couple of months. Make of that what you want, I’m just passing on what we were told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P&O like Royal Caribbean are going for bigger ships and RC have sold some of their smaller ships and because P&O sold Adonia once as their smallest ship it would not surprise me if it happened again and the new P&O brochure i received direct from P&O last week showing the last cruise as 23rd February 2018 certainly adds to the confusion.

That's interesting, because the only new brochure I have is for 2019. We are booked on Adonia on Music festival at Sea on 30th March 2018. There are cruises right through to March 2019 on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Kestrel using Forums mobile app Carnival Corporation is the 'parent company' that owns P&O and many other lines, inc Cunard, Princess, Holland America, Costa etc. Carnival Corp moves their vast fleet to wherever they want to. P&O Australia last year got 2 ships from Holland America and so on. So as has been said P&O don't have much of a say.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Kestrel using Forums mobile app I don't want to cause a drama, but I was reading on a Adonia roll call that someone was currently on Adonia and future cruise sales staff were taking no Adonia bookings for 2018/2019. The cruise sales staff allegedly said a decision would be made in 3 weeks. That worries me hugely having paid out for airfares. But if Adonia does leave P&O UK I truly hope D812 and D813 sail, I can fit in a couple more Sapphire Princess cruises into my window.:halo: Let us all say a prayer for Adonia.:halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeanlyon Posted September 14, 2017 #71 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I messaged P&O on Facebook and asked if my cruise D806 was confirmed and this is the response I got which doesn't make me feel any better at all "At present we are still finalising Adonia's full itinerary so more information about this will follow in the next few weeks. Please rest assured that any changes we make, whether this is itinerary, ship based or otherwise, are always communicated to guests as soon as they happen."
