P&O Cruises has announced the last-minute cancellation of the Aurora's three-night cruise to Zeebrugge, Belgium, scheduled to depart on April 21, 2025, from Southampton. The cancellation is attributed to ongoing delays in the ship's refit process. Passengers were informed via email just 24 hours prior to departure and will receive a full refund and a 20% credit for a future cruise. The Aurora, which has been undergoing significant upgrades including cabin and public space enhancements, is now expected to return to service on April 24, 2025, for a 12-night Norwegian Fjords voyage. The ship will continue its year-round sailings from the UK, offering various itineraries.
