Firstly thank you to other reviewers who helped so much in making our decision to go on a cruise and therefore I have to help others out in a similar fashion.

General

Great Value for money - Lucky enough to get a decent cabin C612 although we did pay little more on a Getaway price than some others - C level does get the slightly larger balcony. A fjord cruise with very good weather so this also helped. Average age probably midto late 60's although probably 25% under 50. A large proportion of cruisers from the Midlands upwards with numerous from as far as away as Wales and Scotland and only a very small proportion of International guests. Scenery was stunning only went on one trip to the Briskdal Glacier which was excellent but as per other comments, cost was too much, although you do have to take into consideration a cup of coffee in Norway is £5! - P&O need to make money on this side though I suppose as the prices for the cruise are so cheap!

Cabin Review

Balcony Stateroom

Cabin JC

C612 - Lovely Balcony - C level does get you a bigger balcony than most, approx 9 foot by 9 foot - overlooked yes, but not the first 4 foot if this is such an issue to you so you can still hide under the above balcony. approx third the way along from aft and between the aft and midships lifts which keeps through traffic noise down. The room itself was plenty big enough for two - plenty of hanging space for all our clothes probably 6 foot. Plenty of storage space for baggage under beds. two small side cabinets and another full height one by clothes rail including safe. Plenty of mirrors and dressing table. Decent size fridge for smuggled on drink! Bathroom tight with a shower, toilet and single smallish sink but it is perfectly adequate - if you want a bigger bathroom pay for a larger cabin I suppose!
