Pacific dawn. The first ship i have ever sailed on so in all fairness can not say how it compares with other ships.
However if you are prone to seasickness do not travel in december to the pacific...very rough seas on departure out of brisbane and return into brisbane. I spent 2 days out of 7 ill along with many other passengers...
As i am a smoker do not chose this ship as the ship is not smoker friendly.. there are only 2 areas to smoke and very difficult to access especially in bad weather. regardless of hoW much money you spend with p and o you will still be treated the same as every other smoker. not like every other passenger.
Cabin was EXCELLENT ...chose this one...very roomy twin share ...only thing wrong for me...probably o.k for everyone else...the bed was rock hard...room service EXCELLENT...you dont spend a lot of time in your room unless seasick so you can lie iin bed and watch a few repeat movies and shows to while away the time .
