We chose this cruise for a work Christmas celebration as opposed to a standard lunch or dinner. This was our 4th cruise, but second with P&O and our 1st on the Pacific Aria. Our 1st impression of the ship was good - it was lovely and elegant. The new décor is a little dark for me, but very attractive all the same.
Our ocean view cabin was very clean, large with a king sized bed and it included a bath in the ensuite!
However, I was surprised that now you need to pay extra for just about everything. The food was very ordinary in the Waterfront Restaurant, The Pantry & Angelo's and I didn’t count 15 eating venues in total. We didn’t get to try the Dragon Lady as it was booked out and the Open Kitchen cooking school & Chef's Table were not open.
