Welcome to the fleet, Iona

 

A moment many of us have been waiting for has finally arrived… During a formal handover ceremony with the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, we officially welcomed Iona to the P&O Cruises fleet.

 

As the first British cruise ship to be powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), Iona is our greenest, largest and most innovative ship yet. And she has a host of surprises in store. With Iona’s luminous glass-roofed SkyDome, on-board gin distillery and whole world of dining and entertainment on board, we can hardly wait to share her with you.

 

We now eagerly look forward to Iona’s new maiden season in Northern Europe and Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands...

Iona's highlights

Explore amazing spaces and special places

Iona’s facilities are nothing short of amazing, and with so much to choose from, you’ll need a little time to find your feet. The ship is designed to let the outdoors in and create an atmosphere of space, light and calm, most notably in the stunning public areas.

Enjoy incredible wining and dining

On Iona, good food is an art form. With 30 different venues to choose from, there’s something for everyone, whatever the mood, by day and night. Plus, in a fleet first, Freedom Dining is standard in all the main dining rooms.

Feel good with spa and salon services

The Oasis Spa is a focal point for rest and rejuvenation. Soothe away life’s stresses and strains in a hydrotherapy suite. Feel good from top to toe with a range of premium therapies: book a stress-busting massage or rejuvenate with beauty treatments.

Get active: on your own or with the family

Pick up on hobbies and interests you love but don’t usually have time to do. Or perhaps now is the time to try something new? Swim al fresco or under the SkyDome’s glass roof; relax and take in the ocean from an infinity pool or whirlpool; play table tennis, football and basketball, among other sporting pursuits.

See extraordinary entertainment

Let us entertain you like never before. Head for entertainment hub SkyDome, home to top acts and live shows. In the Grand Atrium, aerialists and pop-up performances will add drama to your days and nights, while Headliners theatre is the home of exciting shows for all the family.

Where can you sail to on Iona?

One of the most spectacular regions of the world, the Norwegian Fjords

One of the most spectacular regions of the world, many argue that the only way to truly appreciate the scenery of the Norwegian Fjords is to sail through them. We, of course, agree.. Cruising through the deep-blue waters of Norway’s UNESCO-protected fjords on Iona is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Discover sunshine and surprises on board Iona in The Canary Islands, Spain and Portugal

Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands are rightly famed for their abundant sunshine and sandy shores, but these dynamic destinations offer so much more than winter-sun or beach-based breaks. Leave the sun-lounger behind and treat your senses to a world of eye-opening culture.
