sweep2907 Posted February 7, 2021 #831 Share Posted February 7, 2021 One major factor that must be remembered and mentioned by a few senior executives within cruise companies is that most cruise lines will need 3 months notice to get up and running again. Ships need to be got back up to ship shape standards, crew newly trained, repatriated and contacts offered and signed. So if UK government said on March 1st that cruises could restart then by that reckoning you would be looking at resumption around June 1st. I do not anticipate any cruises leaving UK shores before September 2021 at the very earliest. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given P&O’s new target market, perhaps Eros might be more appropriate? 😂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britboys Posted February 7, 2021 #833 Share Posted February 7, 2021 My vote would go to "EvenUglia"... If they stick with Scottish Islands it could also be Barra. Personally, I don't mind it being called Oceana but would hate it to be called Oriana.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be a few more weeks before they decide. Im sure that the decision was made ages ago although, in reality, the decision is made for them. The delay in announcing it is purely to hold on to cash for as long as they can which, as each month of suspension goes by, becomes more and more critical. The volume of marketing emails that I am receiving from P&O now almost smacks of desperation although, as I have said before, if I was P&O I would be doing the same.

No pager thank you Posted February 8, 2021 #844 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Ok, so it's 10.05am and still no announcement....so it's either late or going in to its normal Tuesday slot. TUI chit-chit on Faceache appears to be inaccurate (for now) 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose to stop as much gossip as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly from the previous rounds, the P&O staff and TA's do get an advance briefing. However, I thought that this was on the morning of the announcement to minimise the number of lost bookings (i.e., P&O will happily sell a cruise in May, although we all know that it is unlikely to sail). Will keep checking tomorrow morning 🙂 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
