20 years of adventures for ORIANA

In her 20 years in service so far ORIANA can proudly boast of having taken her passengers to some of the world's most stunning and historic destinastions and along the way given them expeirences and memories to last a life.
From her home port she has set off on many journeys heading to the northern climes of Norway and the Baltic and in winter to the Chirstmas Markets of Northern Europe.

And of course for a ship of ORIANA's liner inspired design and calibre the longer Transatlantic cruises to the USA and the Caribbean Islands have proved to be popular cruises for her.

Over the years she has often been seen graceing ports with her fleet mates often in some of P&O's favourite ports such as Funchal, where she has met with AURORA as seen below as well as OCEANA and ARCADIA.

At home in Southampton she of course has met with her fleet mates many times and also some rivals in March 1995 she met for the first time with a most prestigious rival QUEEN ELIZABETH 2, as fitting for a ship such as ORIANA she would have the last word that day.
