P&O Cruises has introduced its first-ever all-inclusive packages, marking a major change for one of the UK’s favourite cruise lines. These new offerings, available from 18th December 2025, apply to all P&O Cruises lasting five nights or more, starting from March 2026. The packages include drinks, WiFi, and onboard speciality dining credits, allowing guests to manage their expenses before boarding.
New Package Options
P&O Cruises now offers two package tiers: the Classic Package and the Deluxe Package. Both can be purchased at the time of booking, regardless of the fare type, including Select Price, Early Saver, and Saver fares. This flexibility ensures that all guests can enjoy the benefits of these packages.
What’s Included in the Classic Package?
The Classic Package costs £49 per person per day for cruises between five and 14 nights, and £45 per day for longer voyages. It includes the Classic Drinks Package, Essential WiFi for browsing and social media, and speciality dining credit. Dining credits vary by cruise length: £20 for five to nine nights, £40 for 10 to 14 nights, and £55 for 15 nights or more. These credits can be used in speciality restaurants like Sindhu and Epicurean.
Deluxe Package for a Premium Experience
For those seeking a more luxurious experience, the Deluxe Package is available at £59 per person per day for five to 14-night cruises, and £55 per day for longer trips. This package includes the Deluxe Drinks Package, offering a broader selection of premium spirits, cocktails, and craft beers. It also features Ultimate WiFi, perfect for streaming and video calls. Dining credits are more generous, with £30 for five to nine nights, £60 for 10 to 14 nights, and £80 for 15 nights or more.
Significant Savings
P&O Cruises claims that these packages can save guests up to 32% on the Classic Package and up to 34% on the Deluxe Package compared to buying each component separately onboard. This translates to average daily savings of £23 and £30, respectively.
Effortless Budgeting for Your Cruise
The introduction of all-inclusive packages aims to simplify budgeting and offer peace of mind to travellers. Paul Ludlow, President of Carnival UK and P&O Cruises, stated, “Incredible value and effortless simplicity are at the heart of our cruise holidays, and that’s why we are so excited to be launching these new, all-inclusive packages. Guests can relax knowing that drinks, WiFi, and dining are all included.”

This announcement is part of a series of exciting developments for P&O Cruises. Recently, they launched their longest-ever voyage, the Epic World Explorer cruise. This 124-day journey on the Arcadia will explore Asia and beyond, visiting over 30 destinations. With these new packages and thrilling itineraries, P&O Cruises continues to enhance the holiday experience for UK cruise enthusiasts.
