Thank you for commenting Maryann. Like most things hidden in small print that most of us don't read I would love to tell all my friends on cruise critic about our future cruises and do a Live From Review but unless you have a house sitter it is best not to advertise your home will be empty. -

Thank you Jane for your lovely sentiments and your professional advice confirming insurance problems if you highlight you are away on Social media. -

The speciality restaurants booking online is available 14-15 days before your sailing. The benefits are 1----20% discount. 2----Loyalty discount also taken off which is good because if you have a lot of OBC like we did your loyalty discount on board only starts after you have used up your OBC. 3----You can choose the time you want to eat. -

Having spoken to insurance Loss adjusters the first thing they do if you report a burglary is they check your social media. It is wise to have someone living at your home if you advertise you are away on Social media. -

It does cover us but if you highlight on Social media with photos that you are away from home and we had a burglary the insurance Loss Adjuster would turn down any claim because they check social media and if it highlights we are away even though we have CCTV and alarms they would turn down any claim as irresponsible. This is why I Never do a Live From review or tell anyone we are away until we are back home. -

Thank you Sharon for your lovely comments. Normal operating capacity is 5200 guests. 1800 crew. 184,700 tons. The cruise after us has over 2000 children on board so capacity will be well over 6,000 passengers. We never felt the ship was crowded though. -

Good morning. Pauline had to go to work today for 1 day so after taking her I got a cheesy bacon flatbread and coffee and went to the beach on the way home to eat it. It is a little misty but a sea view nonetheless although not as good as our aft sea view on P&O Arvia. I wish everyone a lovely day. -
P&O Cruisers - What are things like where YOU are?

Good morning. After dropping Pauline off at work I got a coffee and cheesy bacon flatbread for my breakfast and called at the beach on the way home. It is high tide and a bit sea fret but a sea view nonetheless although not as good as our aft balcony view on Arvia. -

Anyone who uses a wheelchair or motor scooter has to let P&O know in advance of their disabilities so there are enough crew to help them in an emergency. It is a while since we had to use a tender but we have St Peter port Guernsey on our next cruise so will report back to you Roy. -

We have had 25 P&O cruises out of Southampton England which is our preferred departure port for the Mediterranean and Canary Islands cruises. I am always happy to give you advice if you need it. -

Yes 14743 a couple of cabins from you. Adonis was our cabin steward. We said hello a few times to you both in the corridor not realising we both posted on cruise critic. I never say when we are away so you wouldn't know we were both P&O regular posters. -

Nice to hear from you. I understand it is possible especially when P&O sail in the Caribbean.
