P&O Cruises has released its winter 2025-26 collection with introductory offers available.
On sale from October 18, the programme will feature 12 ports of call the line has either never visited before or not called at for at least five years, including Los Angeles, Melbourne, Bali, Bodø in Norway and Dunedin in New Zealand.
The collection also offers more extended and overnight stays in port compared to previous programmes, to allow passengers to “experience more of the activities and culture in a destination,” the line said.

In an interview with Travel Weekly, director of sales Ruth Venn said she is “really excited” about the 2025-26 collection and agents should “make sure they know the product” to ensure they book the right passenger on the right cruise.
“This is a fantastic collection of sailings and I’m excited we will return to some ports we haven’t been to in a long time as it means repeat guests can go somewhere new,” she said.
“We’re offering more extended stays which are really popular for everyone that wants to immerse themselves in the local culture. Extended stays are also really appealing for new-to-cruise passengers who want to explore cities so this will help any potential barriers they have to cruising.
“There is a real range of itineraries in this programme so agents must know the demographic of their clientele and present them with the right options.”
She added: “We know it’s a really busy time for agents and it can be tough to balance a new product launch with existing sales focuses so we thank them for their support.”
