P&O Cruise Ships Visit Windy Melbourne - Pacific Adventure & Pacific Encounter

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Top AirVuz contributor and drone pilot Gizmo Drones was able to aerially film not one but two giant cruise ships arriving in the port of Melbourne, Australia. Both the Pacific Adventure and the Pacific Encounter are Grand-class ships operated by P&O Cruises Australia. Both ships launched around the turn of the 21st century. Each vessel displaces around 100k gross tons and is about 950 ft. long (approximately 290 m), and can carry about 2,600 passengers in addition to about 1,100 crew members.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

Early Monday morning P&O's Pacific Adventure & Pacific Encounter both arrived together on this very windy morning in Melbourne. I think they came for Melbourne Cup which is held on the first Tuesday of every November and there are festivities throughout the week plus a holiday.

More cruise ships will arrive throughout this week and it kicks off cruise ship season for the coming summer months.

It was quite windy however the Autel Lite+ performed really well and captured smooth footage. You will see some of the wind in this video. At no time was there an issue and the Autel Lite+ long battery life was handy for this sort of flight (theoretical max of 40 minutes per battery).

It's a long video but I hope you like the bits you watch. Thanks for watching, Brett - Gizmo Drones.
