Checkin was easy and the line moved really quickly. The cabins are bigger and our steward was there to greet us on arrival, he did a great job throughout the cruise.

We booked the same table every night as we liked our waiters and dining companions. The food, while delicious is not up to Princess standards, that is the only area we think lets P&O down, it's not a bad thing you just aren't tempted to eat so much. The "anytime" dining is the only complaint we have. We think they should return to 2 sitting times. Lining up to rebook our regular table for Christmas dinner was a pain that lasted about 30 minutes. I do hear the line got longer as breakfast progressed. It isn't anytime dining anyway, they still seem to have only 2 sittings.

The Pacific Entertainer performances were first class. Don't miss the Pacific Cirque performances, they will blow you away with their skills. All of the entertainment staff were energetic and engaging which made the activities really enjoyable. Love your work Nick and Anthony! Particular favourites were the trivia, pictionary and tabletennis tournaments. Not to mention the Karaoke and Popstars, now they were great entertainment. The Bengal Bar is a great place to gather and meet new friends. Read more
