They’re all off the ship between 11 -5 o clock to enable a deep clean. Also, Sindhu closed and Ocean Grill restricted numbers. Waiting for the mutiny! 😂😂

Not guilty your honour! 😂😂

Have read that they’re refuelling and then off to Fort Lauderdale. Hope they can get off there, poor things ☹️

Apparently Norovirus still on board

Have you seen the recent Feefo reviews? They’re pretty poor. Hopefully P&O will take notice - or will they? Who knows?

We’ve done the South America cruise on Aurora and it was fantastic and I would do it again. After our last cruise on Arcadia in September, we won’t be travelling on her again.

First time we haven’t booked something on first day for years. It’s all a bit samey (is that even a word?😂). Feel like itineraries are a bit stale and having done four cruises post Covid, feel that they’re cutting things to the bone, especially food choices. We’ll sit tight and wait and see for a bit

Have you all got your preferences to accept e mail? If not, that’s why it won’t arrive as that’s how it’s sent these days

We’ve done four cruises post Covid and are Baltic level. We’ve always had the appropriate early boarding

We are on Ventura on 11Nov and have been notified that our cabin has been moved from a C aft cabin to a B aft cabin.

On Ventura in March there was a shop selling cameras, binoculars, iPads etc. Its no longer Dixon though ( do they still exist? 🤷‍♀️)

I don’t think you’re fussy at all. The anticipation of a good meal ( and something you maybe have never tried before) is paramount. If we don’t get that shortly, we’ll be voting with our feet. Pax have paid an amount of money for a certain standard that they are entitled to expect within reason

However P&O treated that first sailing back as you paid, and you get what we give you, even if it wasn’t what you paid for They’re still doing that! We’re being treated like mugs 😡

Or Beach House and Ocean Grill and Sindhu are closed! ☹️Have to rely on MDR☹️

Having been on three cruises since covid on different ships and on Arcadia on many previous occasions, and seeing the now reduced menu, I know it will not be the experience I am entitled to expect. My opinion, which I am entitled to. I hope upon hope to be proved wrong. However, to take both speciality restaurants out of service on a smaller, adult only ship that pax pay a premium to sail on, in my opinion is short sighted.

Bearing in mind that Arcadia at the best of times does not have the dining options of other ships, I am really not looking forward to my upcoming Baltic cruise. The MDR menus are even further reduced from our previous three post covid cruises. This cruise is not a “cheapie” and has been booked since day one. No way are we going to get the experience we envisaged when booked and to say I feel cheated is an understatement.

Arcadia and Aurora are SO much more expensive to sail on than the larger ships. It seems that P&O are pushing the larger “family friendly” vibe and if you want a smaller adult only ship, you’re going to pay a premium for it, unfortunately.

whilst on Britannia a couple of weeks ago, we heard of a lady being asked to take a test after she’d bought Strepsils in the shop!

Can anyone currently on board Arcadia confirm whether Ocean Grill and Sindhu are open please? What is the food choice in the MDR like as it was very restricted. Thank you
