Arcadia (IV) & Aurora
Arcadia had sailed to Bremerhaven for her first refit on the 26th November 2008.  As part of it, more stern balconies would be added along the lines of her Holland America Line sisters, making the tiered stern more boxy.  She also had the new P&O Cruises logo rather than the letters.  She returned at 8.30pm on the 19th December and docked in the QEII Terminal.  Meanwhile the following day, Aurora arrived after her Winter Wonderland cruise and was in Mayflower.  Arcadia was due to sail at 4.30pm, but didn't do muster until 4.05pm, while Aurora was the usual 5pm.
