P&O Cruises ‘bringing everyone together’ in 2024 with ambitious schedule
Edited by Travel Weekly


    P&O Cruises Australia is setting sail on an exciting adventure with the launch of its new brand platform, ‘Bring Us All Together’ which will appeal to those seeking genuine connections on their next holiday experience. 

    The news comes as the cruise line embarks on an ambitious 2024 season of sailings taking a record half a million guests on over 179 sailings visiting 46 destinations around Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific, with an estimated economic impact of $1.6bn inserted into the Australian economy.

    Created in partnership with creative studio Supermassive, ‘Brings Us All Together’ is a significant milestone for P&O, taking influence from the cruise line’s original motto ‘quis nos separabit’ – ‘who shall separate us’.

    The new brand platform celebrates P&O’s distinctive ability to help foster deeper connections amongst families, friends and loved ones, as well as their fellow sailors when onboard a P&O cruise.

    P&O Cruises Australia chief commercial officer, Kathryn Robertson said, P&O has long enjoyed unparalleled awareness in the Australian market and the new platform is an exciting step into the future. 

    “Our 2024 program, which features more sailings, diverse itineraries, and expanded locations, underscores our dedication to the principles of our new brand platform – to bring more people together than ever before,” she said.

    To unveil the new platform, P&O Cruises Australia engaged Cameron Bruce, musical supervisor on Baz Luhrmann’s ‘Elvis’, to create a new choral arrangement of Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Everywhere’.

    The re-imagined version was sung en masse by a 300-strong choir comprised of local singing groups, past guests, and brand fans while onboard the Pacific Encounter in November off the Queensland coast.

    Directed by Justin McMillan, the live performance forms the heart of P&O‘s new brand campaign which is live across multiple platforms from today.

    The track will also be available on streaming platforms and integrated into all future “Sail Away” parties, which brings all guests together to celebrate the start of their voyage.
