the MV "ARCADIA" was initially ordered by HAL to become their fifth VISTA CLASS ship, in 2003 it was decided that she would sail as the QUEEN VICTORIA operated by CUNARD LINE, just before her launch in 2004 a decision was made to transfer the vessel to the P&O CRUISES fleet, as a result of all these alterations she became rather a unique ship, a vessel of her own, she sports a modified QE2 style funnel unlike the traditional P&O funnel like the ones seen on ORIANA and AURORA and her mast shows remarkable similarity with the CUNARD ships, QM2 for instance, she looks splendid, pictures taken yesterday
Personally the best Vista class ship ever built. Passed through several Carnival brands but in the end P&O had the final touch, and the results are clearly visible!
ReplyDeleteSplendid photos. Congrats!
Hi João
ReplyDeleteCoudn´t agree more, she is amazing, evolutionary not revolutionary, I´m sure you heard this before, but it´s true
All the best
