P&O Cruises, the UK based contemporary market brand in the Carnival Corp & plc group, says it has added nine short cruises ranging from two to five nights in 2013, visiting the Channel Islands, Belgium and the Netherlands.

Classical singing sensations Jonathan Antoine & Charlotte Jaconelli, who shot to fame in this year’s Britain’s Got Talent, will appear on Azura’s four-night cruise on April 18. Their first album is now certified gold and was the highest ever entry by a classical album into the main album chart.  This cruise provides an opportunity to see them before the start of their UK tour next summer, the company said in a statement.

Available on a choice of family-friendly large and mid-sized ships from April to July 2013, all short break cruises conveniently depart from and return to Southampton, available to book from today. Prices start from £199 per person for a two-night cruise on Azura in April.
