HAL vs P&O

[Hflors]

I am looking at a cruise on P&O (world cruise actually)  I have cruised on Hal, but not P&O.  They look very simular.  If you have cruised on both how are they simular and how are they different?  Thanks for any imput.

Hi, I have cruised on both and I really don’t like P&O anymore, back in the 70s and 80s P&O was like HAL is now.  The food is off a very low standard and small potions.  The cabin are on par with HAL.  The stage shows are better, but  cater for the English market  karaoke and football.  I would say IMHO that P&O just not have any class anymore.   However, There is a strict dress code especially formal nights,  if you are not dressed correctly you have to eat in the buffet .

P&O has cheaper prices, guest laundromats, and no tipping.
