Suites on Pacific Explorer

What’s the difference between a Suite (SA) and a Penthouse Suite (PT) on the Pacific Explorer?

At guess, the size and the price.?

Price. Penthouse suites were Penthose suites on Dawn Princess, aft facing. The SA suites were originally graded as aft facing mini suites on Dawn Princess, but Princess re-graded them to base level suites sometime around 2010.

 

The difference is the Penthouse suites are just a bit bigger. Both have much the same amenities. We have cruised in an aft corner (SA) on Pac Explorer a couple of times. Nice layout and plenty of space, and I couldn't see any value in the price jump to a Penthouse suite. P&O tend to price the Pacific Explorer suites up a bit, as there are so few of them. Normally, they sell out pretty quick too.

Yep, best I can see as well  are the sizes. The included perks seem to be slightly different and/or change so I would double check that at time of booking.   

 

Penthouse suite 

✅Cabin Size 63-65m²

✅Balcony 21-26m²

✅Aft on Decks 9/10

(Perks subject to change so best to check at time of booking.)

 

Suite with Aft Facing Balcony 

✅Cabin Size 48-50m² 

✅Balcony 8-15m²

✅Aft on decks 8/9

(Perks subject to change so best to check at time of booking.)

 

Cheers!
