P&O Cruises' Pacific Eden is making history in Asia this month, chalking up seven maiden calls as part of her inaugural Singapore season.
The 1,500-guest ship started her month-long deployment in Singapore on 30 July, and will offer a total of four roundtrip seven-night cruises visiting ports in Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia.
Pacific Eden's itineraries feature a series of maiden visits, including Langkawi, Malaysia; Krabi, Koh Samui, Ko Chang and Phuket in Thailand; Sabang, Indonesia; and Sihanoukville, Cambodia.
Pacific Eden’s final cruise from Singapore will be a 14-night sailing to Cairns, where she will be homeported for two months, becoming the first ship to be based in the northern Queensland city.
Many of Pacific Eden guests had combined the ship's eastern and western Asia itineraries to create a longer 14-day holiday at sea, visiting eight ports across four countries.
“The seven-day itineraries mean guests can discover a fantastic collection of stunning ports throughout Asia, while enjoying all the comforts of our stylish Pacific Eden, so they really are quite special,” said Sture Myrmell, president of P&O Cruises. “These cruises underline one of the great benefits of cruising - the ability to easily access a range of remote destinations in one holiday, something which would be quite difficult to achieve by land or air.”
Pacific Eden will return to Singapore in July next year offering two seven-night roundtrip cruise.
