Fresh from her refit in December 2011 ORIANA complete with a new "duck tail" stern and now an adults only ship she started 2012 with a 97 night world cruise, on the first leg of the voyage while transiting the Gulf of Aden she was escorted by RFA WAVE KNIGHT due to potential pirate activity in the area.
However perhaps the highlight of the year was the celebration of 175 years of P&O's heritage and this was celebrated in many ways on board from having 175 year heritage sailaway parties to displays around the ship detailing the history of the company.
While in Sydney, Australia ORIANA celebrated the role assisted passage scheme played in the company's history and welcomed on board some special guests, many of those who had travelled to Australia on board ORIANA and CANBERRA in the 1960's under the scheme joining them as well was Carnival Australia's CEO Ann Sherry and AZURA's God mother Darcey Bussell.
