This page is one of a series devoted to postcards and photographs of the P&O cruise ship Arcadia of 2005. She is the fourth ship of this name in the P&O fleet. Arcadia (4) entered service in April 2005, built by Fincantieri of Italy. She was originally ordered for Carnival subsidiary Holland America, but later reassigned as the Queen Victoria of Cunard Line. Finally, she was transferred to P&O Cruises as the Arcadia (4). A new Queen Victoria of similar design has been ordered from Fincantieri for delivery to Cunard in 2007.
