Attracting new to cruise customers has been “integral” to the thinking behind the line’s new ship Iona.

The line has put more than 400 cruises on sale, covering summer 2021 and winter 2021/22

At a launch event in London on Tuesday (September 4), senior vice-president Paul Ludlow said: “While we have a very loyal customer base, we need to find those new to cruise customers."

He added the line planned to find these customers through its travel agent partners.

P&O revealed Iona’s maiden season and its full 2020 programme on Monday, which Ludlow said had been well received, with “100% more” pre-registrations than when Britannia launched at the same time in 2014.
