    My second home! Have done this over 50 times. Very good package, no stress and an extra night's holiday. Price varies depending on time of year and not available during boat show. Can recommend it.

    Shame. No consistency among ships. Can understand not having late night syndicate on two mega ships as no suitable venue with so many pax, but not Britannia.

    Walking through buffet on Aurora last month I saw a couple of waiters with tea trolleys serving tables.

    Back in 2011/2012 when I cruised regularly on Celebrity they did not have trays but did have table service for tea/coffee, etc. Never use the buffet now. Sit in MDR and get served.

    Agree. They are all different.

    There is usually a choir on 14 nighters.

    I always take my own preferred brand!

    Don't judge P&O by Arvia. Believe me, she and Iona offer different experiences from the other ships in the fleet. Some love Arvia style, and others, like me, prefer to stick with the smaller ships. Horses for courses.

    I have been impressed by the care and assistance of staff on recent cruises, even staff with aprons emblazoned with "I am here to help" in the buffet. However, that is on the smaller ships so maybe another thing missing from the big ones.

    Yes, some poor singing. Nicole sang well, but then she does have a fine pair, of lungs!

    Anyone know if the late night (10.30) syndicate quiz has been reinstated?. Always been a very popular and fun quiz on other ships (over 60 folk attending most nights last month on Aurora) but was relegated to the afternoon on Britannia last Summer.

    Was stopped post covid but have seen book swap shelves on other ships this year so probably back on Britannia too.

    Lighting, special effects and drone work spectacular, as usual. Loved the blue whale! Not sure about some of the acts. Worst was Lionel - was he drunk?! Well organised and entertaining though.

    Love Porto Venere. So easy, just half an hour ferry ride.

    No butter, just jam and cream.
  16. Fionboard
    Yes, on the left. Mum made the outfits.
  17. Fionboard
    They are, only needed on the three big ships.

    Enjoyed it. Don't remember much about the last one!

    Such negativity! I am sure you will get some positive comments soon. I personally like Ventura very much and have been on her several times over the past year. Don't worry.

    I have done 12 cruises post covid and not received a questionnaire for any of them. Maybe because I am a regular customer so obviously satisfied (which on the whole I am)!
  21. Fionboard
    Well explained. Glad I renewed last year!
  22. Fionboard
    Is the six month rule no longer applicable to EU?
  23. Fionboard
    Rarely see your steward in the mornings as they tend to be busy inside cabins. More likely to see them doing their other jobs around the ship!
  24. Fionboard
    Maybe they are people who have not pre booked and hope to still get in.

    Is there no large outdoor pool for families with kids?
