I think it is St Lucia, as the planes take off they disappear behind a mountain. There is a shopping arcade right in front of where you dock.

I agree.

Why don't you start one yourself?

Princess actually apply price drops to UK customers now, they didn't up to about a year ago. No laws involved.

That is correct.

I really hope this is an attempt at sarcasm and that you forgot to put a ;) after your comment :confused:

I agree with you.

The main reason we have come back with P&O for our Caribbean cruise is the direct charter flight from our local airport and the ease of transition through Barbados airport on arrival (no luggage).

Same here.

Which you can exchange for 2 coffee cards

 

 

 

You can also swop out items eg gin for vodka.

I may be wrong but you used get the benefits from your P&O cruises after your first Princess cruise. This happened with us when we first went over to Princess.

Not anymore they give you CC status just by registering with them.

Alan and Alana were great. I loved the quizzes and Alan`s terrible jokes. The last time we saw them was on Sea Princess. I don`t know where they are now.

Sandals;);)

"slumming-it" when sailing on P&O.;)

is there any research done into an outbreak of Novovirus? What was eaten? The location of the passengers' cabins etc. It seems to me that any outbreak of illness is immediately blamed on Novovirus, whereas food poisoning has completely disappeared. Handy for the cruise line as it is their doctors who would make the diagnosis.

Totally agree.

If such an outbreak(salmonella) did occur it would be classed as noro-virus.:eek:

$349 and perks. Here in the UK we can't even get those sort of deals. Put a one in front of the 349 and that's a deal for us. Think of us when you next book a cruise. :mad:Woe is me, but then there are no pockets in shrouds, so enjoy whilst you can.

Yes and that 1349 would be £ and not $.

Could also be food poisoning.:eek:

Tone.

That is correct - they sell the holiday as cruise only and you arrange your own flights or as you did ask P&O flight department to arrange flights.

Please explain what that means.

chutes?

We did not arrive 3 hours before our flight - we arrived 2hours 25 minutes before our flight. Checkin had been done on line and the bag drop was not mega busy but we were only at the gate for a few minutes before boarding. We only stopped for a very quick breakfast. I would say that it would be sensible to adhere to the suggested 3 hours before departure but that only works if checkins/bag drop open 3 hours before departure - we waited 15 minutes for bag drop to open. We were a long time going through security which is getting stricter each time we fly.

Sensible yes.

Fail to see why your comment means it is not looking good any Captain must be able to communicate with any port authorities and all cruise ships wherever they dock be it for turnaround or just port call are open to on the spot inspections and if anything is found it has to be sorted or wont be able to leave the port. I fail to see the connection to 2 engine fires, hopefully small ones, and a bilge pump failing 2yrs ago on a different ship or are you just scaremongering.

So long as he can say, in unequivocal tones "abandon ship" you should be ok.

As has been pointed out, the Scottish blue came into the flag about 100 years before Scotland joined with England and Wales to form the UK. So it's would hardly be necessary to cross it out if Scotland left the UK.

Do you think there will be another referendum?:confused:

Sailed from Southampton a couple of years ago on Caribbean Princess & the authorities delayed departure for 24 hours due to a problem with a bilge pump - same Captain(Jonah) as on next sailing:eek::eek:.

BTW English is not his first language and he could not be understood, so much so that after an announcement, a staff member who was fluent and articulate in the English Language had to restate what he had just tried to say. Not looking good.

Ok :o

 

I'll just ask which end of the City he / she comes from instead ;)

Like.:D

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, us Potters have so much in common ;);)

 

PS Are you the red and white end of the City or the black and white ? We're a mix - me the B&W and hubby the R&W.

Please let's keep sport out of cruising.;)

Please - let's keep politics out of cruising !

After post 29 it was.
