Southampton to the Transatlantic Cruise Reviews

After enjoying our first P&O cruise on Iona in 2022 we were keen to see how Arvia would compare. Ship: The ship is really nicely laid out and designed with a good flow. The main moans from other passengers were about the number of sunbeds which were at a premium on the sea days. It was entertaining watching the towels on sunbeds from our balcony. All the crew we met were friendly and ...

We travelled across the Atlantic, to the Caribbean and back to NYC then back across the Atlantic in November / December. Booking and Boarding We booked a saver fare a long time ago and hence did not have an allocated cabin other than that we were guaranteed a balcony with a sea view. Three days before departure, a cabin allocation silently appeared online in our account with Cunard and later ...

We were a group of 19 people and wanted to cruise and visit the Azores and Bermuda on our transatlantic cruise. We ended up 9 days at sea with no stops in port. The only compensation we received was a $200 non refundable on ship credit. There was not much for entertainment onboard but the crew were great. This cruise sucked and I would not recommend it to anyone. The food was mediocre but ...

This cruise was a bucket list for my DH, as I prefer ports and warmer weather. He had hopes of all things British and the ship did not disappoint. He enjoyed high tea and great conversations with our fellow passengers, many who were from the UK. I enjoyed it as well, especially the Cunard Insight's talks. One speaker was a Forensic Medical Examiner and he was fantastic! Every day, there was a ...

I have always wanted to cross the USA by train, and since Covid, I have lost any appetite I had for flying. The QM2 gave me the opportunity to sail to the US, travel across the US by train both ways, stay a few nights on the West Coast, and pick up the QM2 from New York back to the UK. The time gap between the outward voyage on 13th November and the homeward voyage on the 3rd December - 12 ...

The biggest reason I chose this 16-day cruise from Southampton to Fort Lauderdale was the list of 6 intermediate ports of call -- I had never been to any of them! The ports were Cherbourg, Le Verdon, Bilbao, A Coruna, Lisbon, and Ponta Delgada. I was very grateful that I had booked a Princess transfer from London Heathrow Airport to the ship, as the few days before the cruise was sailing it ...

My wife and I love the Transatlantic cruises. After a half dozen ports at the beginning of the cruise, you have almost a week to sit back and relax. The Emerald Princess was just refurbished and everything was in tip top shape. All of the staff was extremely friendly and did a great job. Princess continues to make improvements every time we cruise with them, this cruise was no exception as the ...

We missed a cruise due to the pandemic so focused on “the future” which finally arrived November 1, 2022. Mister wanted to see the Northern Lights. I wanted to see Norway. Perfect. We booked everything through Cunard, including airport-hotel and (returning) port-airport. This review will also include a subsequent TA Southampton to NY Vacation got off to an inauspicious start as we arrived at ...

in regards to the review some of it is from me , some is from my husband Cabin C 426 Mini Suite ( MA) Sky 10/29-11/12 Southampton UK - Cherbourg FR - Lisbon PT - Azores - Ft Lauderdale USA We arrived in London to find that our pre-cruise transfer was not there. We approached the lovely people from another line. They were kind enough to reach out to the known contact for Princess. ...

We were on the Sky Princess Inaugural Cruise in October 2019 from Athens to Barcelona, so we felt like we were coming back home. The Ship looks just as new as the first trip. We arrived at London Heathrow about 8 A.M. on Saturday, the day of departure. We had purchased a Princess transfer to the Ship. The Princess representatives gathered a group of us, and we had a wait of about 40 minutes. ...
