April 10 marked the first full year in service for P&O Cruises Azura. To celebrate, Godmother Darcey Bussell sent a specially signed birthday card to the ship, Captain and crew.
The card, signed, read as follows: "Happy 1st Birthday Azura! I wish I could be with you all. Have a wonderful celebration. Love Darcey." It will be displayed on board in the atrium for passengers to see.
Azura is currently on a 14-night Mediterranean cruise that will see birthday celebrations including a gala night with special birthday theme and a 'reveal' of the framed card to passengers on board.
Here's a look back at Azura's first year in numbers:
* 3,400 Wine Flights sampled in the Glasshouse
