Default Oriana canaries in January

Has anyone been on this cruise? I have heard some horror stories re the journey out. I am not a 'bad' sailor but don't enjoy feeling ill.

The Bay of Biscay is totally unpredicatable. You can have flat calm in December and Force 11 in June. I have sailed it from April to December and experienced both. Oriana is probably one of the best ships however to sail rough seas in as she has the extended bow of a liner to cut through the water.
