On Monday, a cruise ship will enter Sydney Harbour for the first time in more than two years when P&O Cruises’ Pacific Explorer sails through the heads. 

While the ship’s first sailing isn’t until May 31, this marks a momentous day for New South Wales and for Australia’s cruise industry. The ship will pass through Sydney Heads at about 9:30am before reaching the Overseas Passenger Terminal in Circular Quay at about 10:30, with many expected to be watching on.
