On a separate note we are flying from Manchester to Barbados with p and o on Maleth on Friday

 

I've done the online check in with passport details

 

Can't see any link etc to print luggage labels anywhere?

 

Do we not need them when flying with p and o?

 

Ie do they label the luggage at the airport

 

Anyone who knows much appreciated? 

Luggage labels are on your cruise personaliser

The case here is that in previous years Azura and Britannia were based in the Caribbean. Now its Arvia and Britannia so capacity has gone up but someone in P and O missed this and when it was realised they couldn't get suitable aircraft so had to settle for Maleth. Bad planning by P and O.  They should then have offered to let customers that were prebooked to cancel. Even now customers aren't being told upon booking which airline they are using. I recently went to the Caribbean and flew from Birmingham so I knew I would be flying on the Dreamliner.

I can only (very broadly, and maybe wrongly) assume, these cheap cruise fares are attracting some people who may not have done many long haul flights so are not as accustomed to how to behave on 

Sorry can't agree with that comment.  I don't think cruise fares have any bearing on how people behave on flights. I fly a lot and very rarely does anyone keep their seat belt on throughout the flight. It is down to the crew to enforce the rules. They failed on the flight concerned- simple as that. 

I've booked from Birmingham to ensure I fly with Tui. I think Maleth is a cut too far
