Quite easy on a British Isles cruise to divert into a foreign port, ie Ireland, or even France.
-
Not sure I understand. March 2025, Arvia to the Caribbean is £899 for 14 nights, that's a lot less than £100 per night? And Mediterranean Arvia £799 for 14 nights. seems to be lots of far less than £100 per night.

Anyone know the senior officers on Azura?

Selbourne ‘Live’ from Aurora’s 2024 Grand Tour
jeanlyon replied to Selbourne's topic in P&O Cruises ( UK )
They obviously don't change the menus very often. That is exactly the same as last October! -
Yes I know, but when booking a private tour, I kept forgetting which was which!!
-
Yes but none of this means always that you will fly TUI because if something goes wrong with their aircraft you could be changed.
-
Yes, we got the £200 each OBC, so quite happy with that. I have asked them to send me a couple of different menus from Vasco, because the example one didn't excite.
-
I keep getting confused about the names of the islands. Sao Miguel is Ponta Delgada. Praia da Vittoria is terceira.
-
We will pay as we go for drinks. I don't even see a drinks package, only champagne and wine packages? I found the package another way by typing it into Google. There is no way we would use £50 per day. We have one large glass of wine each before dinner and a bottle of wine which we don't always finish.
-
April 4th - got £200 pp OBC as well. I have forgotten about my discount as well. That's cheap!! Even the excursion we are doing is cheaper than P&O We rarely do ship excursions, but this one looked good and reasonable. I don't get discount on excursions,, as only Silver level.
-
It really would be nice. One day! So when are you going to the Azores? Must say, I rather like Fred's way of doing things compared to P&O. I have booked Tastes, although the confirmation didn't mention the price. But I see it in the description. I didn't like the look of the Indian menu, but it's only an example.

Eglesbrech, are you on this cruise. Our trip in Praia is Amazing Tours. Madeira is Madeira Airport transfers.
-
Yes my friend, who unfortunately died last year, did a British Isles cruise on her and liked her very much. Sounds good for the house Chardonnay.
-
Doing the Blue and GreenCrater Lakes in Punta Del in a car with local guide. Doing a fred excursion in Praia da Vittoria and another private one in Madeira. Have booked Tastes on your recommendation.
-
Thanks a lot Eglesbrech. Don't do martinis, but will definitely try the speciality restuarants. Love Asian and Indian. Long time since we sailed on Fred, but looking forward to Bolette. Got a couple of nice private excursions booked, one in Madeira and one in Punta Delgada. No need to pay until you get there either.

Selbourne ‘Live’ from Aurora’s 2024 Grand Tour

I had no problem downloading via wifi ashore to my Kindle and mine is really old. -
What ship was this on, because they were coming round all the time at the pools on Aurora.
-
Certainly wasn't like that on Aurora in October. Everybody seemed to be drinking during the day, which we don't and certainly the bars were full in the evenings. We had a table for 8 an everyone on the table was drinking wine.
-
We just drink ours!!
-
Well not really, as if I had waited until I got home to book, it would have been the same price just without that OBC
-
Well that's one way to look at it, but we booked our October cruise on board and got £520 OBC and freeparking. As our drinks bill having one large wine each and a bottle with dinner came to £570, we will be quids in!! I never buy anything in the shops. As someone said it's tat.
-
So you haven't fha So you haven't had any drinks, alcoholic or soft and no coffee?
-
Hi, not sailed on Fred for a while, but do they still keep your wine for the following evening if you don't finish it?
-
Not just Maleth then 🙂 this one says dense acrid smoke in the cockpit. Not nice. https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/vs77#33884c6e

Have to say I hated our Airbus. It flew nose up, so pushing the trolleys was difficult and it yawed at the back. Awful. Mind you that was an A320.
