We’re delighted to invite you to one of our medical open days taking place throughout 2026 across our fleet. It’s a great chance to discover more about our operation, explore our facilities and get a real feel for what it’s like to live and work at sea.

Once you’re on board, you’ll enjoy a guided tour of the medical centre and crew areas, meet the team and take a look around guest venues. You’ll then join us for a relaxed presentation with tea, coffee and pastries.

As part of our medical team, you’ll have the opportunity to work across both Cunard and P&O Cruises ships – a brilliant way to experience different ships, destinations and moments that make working at sea so unique.

Register for your place here – Medical open day form

To embark our ships, you need to provide a valid form of photographic identification to the medical team prior to attending. Please do not turn up on the day of the event without receiving a confirmation e-mail of attendance as you will be denied entry to the ship.
