  1. We fly out on the 15th for the return transatlantic crossing.
  2. Thanks for the photo. We've got a de-luxe balcony booked for our cruise on Arvia in March, but mid-ships.
  3. We were on Arvia in May and I like the ship but no so the problems we had with the app. Have a good cruise and look forward to reading about the rest of your holiday.
  4. See my comments above in post 83!
  5. Our train journey is a least six hours, if there are no holdups,missed connections or cancellations, which are common occurances. Therefore, there is no way I would chance travelling up on the day we are due to cruise, or fly from an airport!
  6. At half past we were still waiting so went to enquire. Were told again that our time hadn't been 'called', but allowed us and a few others, who had also gone to enquire in. with "I didn't tell you"! We are due on Britannia in September, so will be interesting to see our boarding times then. I have the highest tier (Mediterrean), my mother (Atlantic) has booked assistance and the rest of our party are first time cruisers with P&O.
  7. We arrived a after 12 noon but it was before our time of 12.15 pm Yes, there were. The reason given was because then hadn't been told to let that time could go in!
  8. We arrived on time and still had to join the naughty queue😒
  9. Booked direct and one through a TA, but haven't received any!
  10. And although having several cruises booked I've still received none!
  11. As today is Happy Friendship Day I would like to say Thank You to my CC family for all your support, encouragement and caring in the past.
  12. Have a great cruise and look forward to reading about the rest of your holiday.
  13. It is a nice calm sunny day although on the chilly side for this time of year, although after all the rain and wind yesterday I shouldn't complain! Hope everyone has a good Sunday.
  14. That brings back memories. My friends and I stayed at the Youth Hostel up by Whitby Abbey when we went hiking through the North York Moors just after we left school.
  15. I have sailed once with Fred Olsen on Black Watch, and although the food, entertainmnet and service was good, the cruise itself was like a mystery tour. Without going into details, everyday was different to what it should have been, and we got the feeling that we were being lied to at every turn!
  16. When you are as far down in the south west as we are, most things to us are up!
  17. I have had my flight details for my January cruise as well, sent via my TA.
  18. I don't go up often, probably last time was January although have been up to the hospital. Went up to the hospital about a fortnigh ago and If you though Chiverton Cross was bad before it's worse now🥴and it's moved!
  19. Pretty windy is an understatement! It is definately winter out there, although the sun had just put in an appearance.
  20. Hope you have a great cruise and that the seas calm down for you.
