P&O Cruises delivered a Christmas surprise to the children of Mystery Island when it sailed into port on 23 December 2008 with a load of presents donated by local charities and the cruise line.
On arrival, Pacific Dawn’s crew were greeted by hundreds of local children excited about the special delivery.
Jenny Lourey, Senior Vice President of Carnival Australia which operates P&O Cruises, said the cruise line was delighted to help bring some Christmas spirit to the island.
"Mystery Island is such a spectacular place and its residents have been welcoming our passengers with open arms for more than 20 years, so it was great to give something back to the community," Ms Lourey said.
Pacific Dawn regularly visits Mystery Island as part of its South Pacific itineraries.
Pacific Dawn is Australia’s first superliner and features two swimming pools, a choice of five evening dining areas, nine bars and lounges and dedicated children’s facilities.
