P&O Cruises, which on 1 June unveiled the news that it had ordered its largest ship so far, did not mention anything about an option for a second ship. However, most shipbuilding contracts do include one or more options for further vessels.
P&O Cruises have not so far either taken up or axed the option. The ship ordered in June will be delivered in 2015 and it will be a sister vessel to two similar sized vessels the Italian yard is building for P&O Cruises’ sister company Princess Cruises.
