How much does the P&O Caribbean Pass cost?

Costing £70 per cabin, per day, it’s available to purchase on selected sailings across two of P&O Cruises’ most popular Caribbean ships: Arvia and Britannia.

What does P&O Caribbean Pass include?

First up, it’s all about exclusivity. With only a limited number available to purchase, this isn’t an add-on everyone onboard can get their hands on.

Those who secure The Caribbean Pass will be entitled to a whole host of privileges, starting before they’ve even stepped foot on the ship. Passholders benefit from priority check-in and boarding at Caribbean terminals, meaning less waiting around and more time to start enjoying the holiday.

Once on board, the perks continue. Reserved theatre seating ensures guests won’t miss out on the best entertainment P&O Cruises has to offer, while priority gangway access at ports makes returning to the ship quicker and easier – ideal after a day exploring the beaches, towns, and islands of the Caribbean.

Connectivity is also covered. The Caribbean Pass includes the Ultimate Wi-Fi package (one device per person, two per cabin), so guests can stay connected with friends and family back home or simply share holiday highlights instantly on social media.

On top of this, there are a number of treats to enjoy throughout the voyage. Passholders will be invited to a sail away event with ship officers, adding a unique and personal touch to the journey. Guests will also have access to a dedicated reception service, plus a complimentary departure lounge on disembarkation day complete with drinks and food—taking the stress out of the final day on board.

For those who love a little pampering and shopping, The Caribbean Pass includes a £30 spa voucher and a 10 percent retail discount on merchandise items, giving guests more reason to indulge.

Altogether, The Caribbean Pass is designed to enhance the P&O Cruises experience for travellers seeking added convenience, luxury, and memorable touches. It’s a package that combines time-saving priority services with special extras that make a holiday feel all the more indulgent.
