Points make prizes as new ship Iona goes on sale


August was full of incredible Iona news, including the launch of our Iona Insiders competition . . . and we can’t wait to share more with you, especially as our revolutionary new ship is on sale from Monday! After a summer full of Iona


news, our highly anticipated new ship Iona will be on sale


to the top tiers of our Peninsular Club members from Monday. And the great news is, for every Select Price booking you make during the launch period, we’ll be rewarding you with Shine Rewards Club Points! This is a great chance for you to use this high booking period to start working your way towards your points goal. To find a full list of our on sale dates, please visit shinerewardsclub.com/news. August also saw the release of more information of our SkyDome. It offers a relaxed, poolside environment by day, with tempting dining and drinking venues. Come evening, the space seamlessly transitions into an entertainment venue. The swimming pool transforms into a stage, while spectacular aerial acrobatic shows make full use of SkyDome’s height. This really is a unique space on board, so make sure you check out our videos on our P&O Cruises Travel Agent Sales Facebook page. In August we also shared some exciting news for our guests. For holidays departing from May 2019 the discretionary onboard daily Service Charge will be removed, which means guests can relax knowing it’s all taken care of. If you’d like to find out more, including from which cruises this will be implemented, go to shinerewardsclub.com/news As always, thank you for your continued support – and good luck during this peak booking period!
