For most people, a week or two aboard a cruise ship offers the chance to explore several different ports while travelling in comfort and luxury and enjoying the facilities on board. However, behind the scenes, the infrastructure of a small city is provided to ensure there is light and power, food and drink, propulsion, waste disposal and laundry as well as a myriad of other services and functions that ensure the ship gets to its destinations on time. So, how does it work? What really happens behind the scenes? Sharon Poole and Andrew Sassoli-Walker have been given unprecedented access to the seven ships of the P&O Cruises' fleet as, with contributions from passengers, officers, crew and shoreside staff, they go into the planning and execution of a year's travel aboard a P&O Cruises' ship. Starting with ensuring the itineraries are in place, berths are booked at destinations and that brochures are ready, they then look at the ships themselves, covering everything you would expect to see on a normal cruise, as well as many of the behind-the-scenes activities that make a P&O Cruise a relaxed and exciting experience for all passengers.
Sharon has been writing/compiling local history and maritime history books since 1987. In her spare time she is a keen photographer and a contributor to photo libraries. She is also a keen traveller on cruise ships and has been a collector of merchant maritime memorabilia for over forty years. Andrew works in the shipping industry, and has done for the last twenty-three years. He is a keen photographer, which has resulted in becoming a freelance professional in addition to his shipping career. He has had numerous commissions from the shipping industry and has won a few competitions including one held by P&O Cruises. Has had photos published in maritime books. He is a keen traveller especially on cruise ships, and has been interested in them since childhood.
