Following 4 previous cruises with Royal Caribbean, one in the Med and three in the Caribbean, we thought we would try P&O for a much anticipated cruise around the Norwegian Fjords.
We found all aspects of the P&O operation very straightforward, embarkation took approximately 1 hour (rather longer on RC)and our luggage was already waiting for us outside the cabin. The Aurora was a much smaller ship than we are used to and we rather liked that. Some reviews state it is showing its age but I think a bit of refurbishing is taking place all the time, new carpets, new sun lounge covers on the balcony furniture, etc. and we found it perfectly acceptable.
Our cabin steward was delightful, discreet but very efficient, and stowed our luggage for us so we had more room in our cabin. The cabin was a balcony one with separate lounge area, a good size and the bathroom much bigger than on the RC boats with a small bath and better shower. We appreciated the tea, coffee and biscuits in the room.
B160 good sized larger balcony cabin, close enough to the lifts but not too close. No complaints at all.
