Southampton to Europe - British Isles & Western P&O Britannia Cruise Reviews

Booked this cruise after sailing on a staycation cruise, it felt good to be back cruising. We booked a superior deluxe balcony cabin for the extra space as we were a party of three adults. Embarkation was reasonably smooth but once in the terminal some of the staff were less than helpful. We boarded the ship went to our muster point as instructed and then went to the shambolic Horizon ...

Having cruised before with P&O on Azura we were looked forward to this cruise as we had been told that Britannia is a better ship how wrong they were, staff on Azura went the extra mile to make everything special, Britannia cruise was like being on a floating hotel. nothing was special. Approx 6 weeks before P&O reduced the price of cruise which attracted unsavoury guests mainly in the smoking ...

Chose this cruise for our golden wedding anniversary. Could not use the app. All the shows were booked. Could not join what they call a virtual Q for breakfast and dinner. Total shambles and a waist of good money for the five of us. Final statement all wrong with about £300 on it which has nothing to do with us. I have emailed P and O about it a week ago. I know they will not reply. We ate in the ...

our experience (staycation 1st August 2021) as a family of four adults in two un-obstructed balcony rooms - we had previously attended MSC virtuosa (staycation 10th July 2021) some of the mishaps: 1. first day of freedom dining we asked server politely, John (table 195 - Penisula) if it was possible if we could finish the ordered three course meal by 10.30pm to attend the theatre. we arrived ...

Recommended. Sunbeds were reserved round all pools. Three small smoking areas with no sunbeds only chairs one under cover cold windy & dark with sunny tables that were no smoking? Hidden extras. Different prices in bars. Norovirus on ship advised use own toilets meaning having to wait for overcrowded lifts as no stairs run through middle of ship?? Penisular breakfast cold toast brought ...

Travel outside school holidays on a family ship so expected to see some young children but the ship was packed with children of all ages. It only cost £50 to keep them off school. Screaming and running around for the most part uncontrolled by parents and guardians. Children sitting and running all over the dance floors until midnight. Young children sitting on the bar counters and none of the ...

We cruised with P and O for many years up to 2014 when we decided that as their standards had dropped so much we would try other cruise lines. We found these other cruise lines were still up to the standards that P and O had before 2012. P and O had been in contact with us over the years trying to convince us to try them again assuring us that the standards were once again on a par with other ...

I have been with P&O many times. I have always been full of praise and delight, about all off our Cruises’s However, I am now questioning if I will EVER use P&O again. P&O is now owned by Carnival, it shows that all they are interested in is money. The Britannia is a “Cash - Cow”. No interest in the care of passengers needs. I was on P&O’s Britannia for 16days to the Western Caribbean on ...

I was disappointed I put my expatations so high when I left home as it was British. Ship Brittinia was let down 3 year old ship felt more like 20 year old ship rusting most parts. I been on other 5 cruise ship smunched older they were far supier and no rust. The ship felt more like 5 star hotel. No atomephere anyway on board. The toilets so far away from bars and resturants and in general one ...

The worst 2 weeks of our life, this was supposed to be our honeymoon! Where to start... Firstly we arrived in our balcony cabin to find remaining confetti from someone who must have had the room before us i imagine, no tea bags, coffee or milk available we had to wait 30 mins until someone bought us some. The first night- major design fault in balcony rooms, balcony doors did nothing but ...
