We booked a cruise on Arcadia in November 2014 for a cruise departing August 2015.
A few days after we booked the ports of call changed due to the Russia/Ukraine problem.
We understood why and were happy with the alternative ports of call.
However when I checked the cruise details on line to look in more detail at the ports I noticed the price had changed significantely.
The cruise was a lot cheaper and the on board credit increased by quite a lot.
When I telephoned P and O to ask if they would offer the new price to us the reply was they couldn't/wouldn't as we had already booked with a low deposit offer!!! So we cancelled the first booking and rebooked at the new price, ok so we lost the "low deposit" but gained the other benefits.
Will be very wary in future of booking early and with P and O.
even though we have cruised with them seven times before.
