  1. Been on Aurora many times over the past couple of years and always had large TVs. It is the lack of signal at times which is the problem. But I don't cruise to watch TV as I do too much of that at home!
  2. Booked my May Aurora cruise a month ago. Now reduced. A couple of friends have paid less than me for the same cabin. Have effectively paid more than 100% supplement. They also got twice the obc I did. Booking last minute from now!
  3. My May cruise has been reduced in price by £500. However, I have paid £401 deposit, so no gain in cancelling and rebooking. Really annoying how this keeps happening. My 2 friends have paid less for their balcony than I have!
  4. Did Northern Lights last Feb and doing it again next month. Tons of snow, very cold, and beautiful.
  5. Loved Praia. So much prettier than Ponta D. When we visited they laid on a brass band. Reminded me a bit of La Palma with one main street.
  6. Go to your cruise personaliser, check in online and then you can print your boarding pass and tags.
  7. Aviva would not quote for me, being over 74, but I expect they will make allowances for Nationwide customers.
  8. So glad I always do fixed dining! No stress or uncertainty. I have no desire to go on Iona or Arvia again. But I can see the attraction of "Freedom" to some folk who like to dine at different times.
  9. I have been to that beach by ferry. It was very dirty and crowded so got on the next boat back to the ship. There are better beaches on the island, further afield though.
  10. Can you join a virtual queue on the TV and then sit there and watch until your table is ready?
  11. Correct, I am not a Nationwide customer.
  12. Might not affect Nationwide customers. I just visited Aviva website for a quote and saw I was too old!
  13. That would exclude those not able to use a smart phone though. As it seems like a lot of posters on here want to eat early and have tables for two, maybe one restaurant with ONLY tables for two at 6.00 pm would be the answer!
  14. Aviva would not quote. You have to be under 75! Wonder if this will affect any over 74s currently with Nationwide?
  15. St Vincent town is awful, but the cruise terminal is good, so your wife should enjoy that.
  16. Why don't P&O just make one MDR fixed dining, like the smaller ships, to cater for all these people who want to dine at the same time every night and leave the other MDRs for Freedom dining?! Seems like a lot of folk don't want Freedom at all.
  17. Good deal. I cannot get Worldwide for less than about £600. No serious conditions, just 75 years old!
  18. Yes. Baked on like Tippex. Took ages to get off. Won't do that again! Bloody birds!
  19. Yes, and never park under one of the trees in Summer unless you want your car covered in "guano" when you return!
  20. I have used Holiday Inn over 50 times and always keep my keys with me.
  21. Frequent P&O customer eh? Atlantic tier, 500 points and £10,000 spent? Don't think so!
  22. Tallinn is lovely, Riga is too, like a larger more grand Tallinn.
  23. Harbour Lights is good too. Same beach but cheaper and quieter.
  24. Yes. Have been caught out before when prices have been reduced after final balance date. Notably Arcadia Canada cruise when they removed single supplement! On the other hand, some cruises sell out. It is a gamble.
