Xavier Pitarque passed away in Barcelona at the age of 77

A message would not normally be sent about someone who was not a P&O employee, but as the Managing Director of the Port Agency which acted for P&O in most of the Spanish ports of call, Xavier Pitarque was a personal friend of many of the Captains and Senior Officers who are now retired from P&O Cruises.

In 2012 he was a guest at the P&O Pensioners’ Reunion Luncheon and also took part in the P&O Golf Day.
