First look at P&O Cruises ship Aurora's multi-million pound makeover

P&O Cruises ' cruise ship Aurora has made quite the comeback into the company's fleet following a multi-million pound refurbishment.

Aurora has undergone a major makeover with heaps of new cabins, modernised communal areas, and plenty of updates and modern designs for the sleek new finish.

The biggest changes come in the form of the cabins.

Not only will there be 23 new cabins on deck 8, but the ship's suites have been given a refresh with new furniture, carpets, furnishings and even bathroom fittings. (That includes the ship's luxurious two-level penthouse suites).

Oh, and for those who need their beauty sleep, have no fear - over the next six months the ship will be rolling out new mattresses for all the cabins.
