- P&O Cruises brand new Mediterranean Fly-cruises are an exciting way to see six destinations on a seven-night holiday. From late March to October, you can see the classic European destinations of Florence, Nice and Rome on the beautiful Ventura ship, from just £799 per person. Ideal for families, couples and solo travellers alike, the large ship has the Med as its home and is ready to sail the warm waters, taking you to incredible destinations with enough time on board to relax and rejuvenate between sightseeing.
- Venice, Dubrovnik, Corsica and Rome - some of Europe's most breathtaking holiday destinations are just a fly cruise away with P&O Cruises and when it comes to choosing which places to visit, you don't have to! The seven-night cruises take in six destinations across Italy, Greece, France and Croatia - more than you'll visit in several holidays. And whether you've already witnessed the wonders of Florence, Nice and Corfu and want to return, or are visiting the iconic destinations for the first time, there's plenty to see and do each day.
- Forget what you've heard about cruise holidays if you've never been on one as cruising has become cool and younger travellers are getting in on the action in 2014 too. A recent ABTA survey found that 16 to 24 year olds are particularly interested in cruise holidays, with 19 per cent saying they are considering a cruise this year - more than double the seven per cent that took one in 2013. With that in mind, P&O Cruises Mediterranean Fly-cruises are ideal for a first-timer of any age. Spending seven days discovering a variety of destinations, it offers a great taster cruise and the perfect combination of time on land and at sea. While on-board there's a fabulous spa, West End-style shows and fine dining to ensure you'll never be bored.
- On a P&O Cruises Mediterranean Fly-cruise you'll fly directly to your first port of call, giving you more time to explore the sights and less time getting there. What's more, you can fly from your local airport, with departures from Bournemouth, Belfast and Cardiff, as well as London, Manchester and Birmingham. The gleaming Ventura ship awaits you in Venice, Genoa or Malaga before you take in the iconic scenery of Italy, the Greek Islands, Dalmatian coast and French Riviera in your port-rich itinerary.
- If you're a fan of fine dining, you'll love The White Room, Ventura's signature restaurant by Marco Pierre White. But there are 11 other places to eat on the ship, including a tapas bar and restaurant, an Asian restaurant and a choice of Club Dining - the same table at the same time each evening, and Freedom Dining - no fixed seating or dining times. For an informal coffee and conversation, be sure to check out Tazzine, where you can enjoy sweet treats created by Marco Pierre White, as well as light lunches and snacks.
On Ventura, there's always something fun, family-friendly and fantastic going on. You'll find 16 places to drink, a lavish theatre and tranquil spa, as well as fine dining, children's clubs, quality cabins and beautiful places to socialise. Don't miss exploring the ship and its stunning spaces. The Atrium is your first impression of Ventura's spacious interior and as you move from deck to deck you'll notice the subtle changes in décor, inspired by nature - from the warm golden tones reflecting the rise of the sun on Deck 5 to the drama of the setting sun with a crescendo in rich scarlet and copper tones on Deck 7.
- If you've never taken your children on a cruise before, now is the time to do it. Family cruise holidays are bigger than ever and P&O Cruises Mediterranean Fly-cruise is not only perfect for introducing your little ones to some of Europe's most spectacular destinations, but Ventura was specially designed for families. Younger children will love The Reef kids club, meeting Noddy and Mr. Bump from the Mr. Men Show, as well as movie nights, while teens can hang out in their own areas kitted out with DJ decks, table football and Rock School.
- Love cabaret and West End-style shows? Ventura is home to an array of entertainment venues offering wonderful places to spend your evenings on the ship. A two-deck theatre, cinemas, live music and nightclubs can all be experienced on-board, and for a stylish evening head for Metropolis, a sophisticated jazz bar and observation lounge that could be straight out of Sex and the City. For a little bit of Latin America in the Med, go on to Cuban-themed nightclub Havana, the place to party into the early hours on the ship.
- Is there anything better than fresh sea air and great views? On a P&O Cruises Mediterranean Fly-cruise you'll have plenty of time to relax far from the stresses of home and enjoy the views on the open deck. Inside, the Oasis Spa boasts a variety of treatments that you can experience alone or as a couple. The Retreat is a luxurious open-air spa terrace with sun loungers, airy cabanas for al-fresco spa treatments, personal waiter service and a child-free space. And when you fancy a dip, there are five pools including the Terrace Pool for splashing around in the sunshine and the Endless Pool, where you can enjoy an uninterrupted swim before relaxing in the whirlpool spa, in a sauna or steam room.
