Chose P&O for the ease of using GBP on board and no need for socket adapters. I had select price including coach travel to Southampton. This worked well but several coaches arrived at once due to traffic so embarkation meant a long queue. Once on board straight to my inside cabin on deck 15. . Deck 15 was handy as only one deck up to the skydive and Horizon buffet so no need to use the busy ...

Last 2 weeks of March 23 in Canaries. Whats not to like, if the sun shines, and it did. Food a bit skimpy in buffet and MDR in choice and portion size too. BUT new eateries are fab, esp Hook Line & Vinegar - fish cooked to perfection!!! We miss Dancing Classes, Bridge Classes and Afternoon Tea (with sarnies and cakes missing - tea cakes & scones doesn’t cut it in our book). Is this because ...

Picked this cruise because we got a great price deal. We have cruised with several other lines before, but never with P&O. Boarding the Iona at Southampton was very well organised with plenty of staff and took a little over 30 minutes from entering the hall to getting on the ship. All good here. First impressions of the ships Atrium area was, it was not as glamourous as some other ships we have ...

Review of Iona G306: Spain and Portugal 4th-18th March 2023 This was my first P and O cruise since the pandemic, though I flirted with other lines in 2021 and 2022, and I was nervous to say the least: about the travelling ( been all over the world on my own but the stress caused by the restrictions changed everything); and about Iona because I seemed to read a lot of negative reviews both on ...

This was our first ever cruise after years of beach holidays and WOW what an experience it was. From start to finish from embarkation to disembarking the staff couldn't do enough for us. Always helping and offering assistance even if you didnt ask for it. Always smiling and professional throughout our trip the food was outstanding the entertainment was simply amazing and our on shore experience ...

I was worried going on this cruise because of the bad reviews. My advice after cruising on her - ignore them. The ship is beautifully designed - very light everywhere. I was super organised before I left - booking what I could on the ‘app’ and made sure that the very first thing I did when I got on was to book everything else. MDR bookings for the whole cruise could be made by asking the ...

After reading so many negative comments we had lowered our expectations massively. However, we should not have worried, we had a great time. What a lot of people seem to forget is that P&O have been through extremely tough times and have borrowed a load of money to stay afloat (literally) and somewhere between the pre Covid days and now, stuff has to change. I could care less about chocolates ...

Overall the best ship I've sailed on, but some problems in the maiden voyage

I suspect there will be quite a few negative reviews for this sailing, judging from the chatter in the corridors, but here are my views: - QUEUES. I don't think we queued more than 10 mins for anything all holiday but there was lots of grumbling from others about this. Most of the problems seemed to come from people who couldn't/wouldn't use the MyHoliday app, which you use for booking nearly ...

Thought I would read throw some reviews as I've not been on here for a while and blimey,people are fairly getting stuck in to poor old Victoria. Yes we were held up in dry dock but for goodness sake,we were all fed and watered,what people have to understand is....these things happen,yes,it was disappointing missing Lisbon but would these people rather the cruise was cancelled last minute? I for ...

Did the Xmas cruise after a break of 3 years due to covid. Glad that all the important features and standards have been maintained. Yes there were changes but were all beyond Cunard control. International legislation regarding the environment and Covid regulations meant that, just like life in the uk, things had to change. Life or cruising will never be the same again. The food,staff ,service and ...
