Oceana was the first ship to dock at the new Ocean Terminal.
SOUTHAMPTON Docks' new £19m Ocean Terminal has handled its first passengers.
P&O Cruises’ ship, Oceana had the distinction of being the first vessel to use the state-of-the-art building in the Eastern Docks, opposite the site of the old Ocean Terminal after which the new development has been named.

The Ocean Terminal’s baggage system, check-in desks, and security procedures all underwent a thorough test as more than 4,500 people passed through the building during the day as they left or joined the ship.
