P&O Cruises has dropped its Covid-19 vaccination and testing requirements. 

The cancellations impact Arcadia departures between 12 April and 23 June

In a statement posted on its website, the line confirmed it is no longer mandatory for guests to show proof of full vaccination or a pre-departure test. 

However, cruise J301 – Arcadia’s World Cruise, Classic Southern Hemisphere Journeys or Exotic fly-cruises – will still require the Covid measures. 

While vaccination is no longer required for the majority of the line’s cruises, it still "highly recommends" all guests are up-to-date with Covid vaccinations and boosters when eligible and where available.
