Best way to book a cruise from the US

[luv2ndhalf]

Hello! I am looking at booking a cruise sailing out of Southampton (Aurora)...We live in the US-

I am not a huge fan of their website, and not super confident in the booking process online...

We normally sail on Celebrity, and I'm not familiar with P & O-

 

Calling directly? Website? Travel agent? TIA

I hope someone comes along who can give you an informed answer. The only thing I would say that if I check P&Os website when in the USA, it is impossible to do a dummy booking through to the final stages, and gives me what I have always believed to be a US number to call. Is that not the case, and if so, have you tried it?

 

By the way, Celebrity is the line we use most often and I suggest you read @Selbourne's excellent blog of his 65 night recent trip on Aurora if you have not already done so. Good luck.

I have not tried calling them directly yet....I appreciate you sharing @Selburne's with me!

Hi, we're on Iona Norway May 11th-18th this year. There's a couple from New Hampshire on the roll call, maybe post a question to them there?
