Im tempted to skip the first 14 hours of this blog and move on as in many ways they are best forgotten. But in many ways the…

I cant tell you how much we enjoyed our pre christmas Voyage on Queen Victoria. It was the perfect Christmas break for us. The next best thing to an actual christmas cruise, and in many ways even better than! A five night Christmas Markets voyage, departing and returning to Southampton. We travelled Princess Grill in a midship suite on deck 4.
We have just returned from the fabulous Cunard Queen Victoria on the Christmas Markets voyage. We had wall to wall snow all the way and the ship became even more magical as the layers of snow fell on her.
Savings of up to £2,500 and free on board spending money of almost £1,000 per couple is being offered in this winter’s promotion from P&O Cruises.
Compare typical P&O fares to those of other cruiselines and then look to see whats included!
It may seem like many moons ago now, but back in September we cruised onboard Celebrity Eclipse from Southampton visiting Vigo, Lisbon, Gibraltar, Barcelona, Palma, Toulon, and Cadiz. Read about my first real cruise experience with Celebrity cruises and a few observations I made along the way.
14,000 passengers enjoy a "grand celebration"
Passengers on board any of the seven ships in the P&O Cruises fleet on Friday April 29, 2011 need not worry about missing out on the Royal wedding as the ceremony from Westminster Abbey will be shown live on board.
When Artemis leaves the fleet next May the number of exclusively for adults holidays available within the P&O Cruises programme will be effectively reduced as Adonia, her replacement, is a smaller ship. We therefore wish to add a third ship to offer this type of holiday. We are able to do this as Azura, the most recent ship to be added to our fleet provides additional holidays for families. Therefore, when Oriana comes out of her refit in November 2011 she will become a ship exclusively for adults.
P&O Cruises have confirmed that shuttle buses in ports will be free of charge from 1st November 2010. Im sure that will get a big thumbs up!
I was so privileged to be among the invited guests at the Naming Ceremony of Cunard’s latest ship Queen Elizabeth. It was a truly amazing experience from start to finish.
