P+O quality suffering

Review for a Norwegian Fjords Cruise on Arcadia

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Chose Arcadia for a number of reasons - been on before, adults only + Fjords for 1st time. Few positives but many negatives. Positives ... We were in a balcony on Sun Deck which, according to deck plan, had a solid wall going aft and nothing above us. Wrong! The wall had 2 fire exit doors which were latchable from the inside and Sun beds above us that were usually laid out @ 7:17am on a ...

Good ports of call but everything on the ship of poor quality

Cruise chosen for interesting ports of call. Last on this ship 15 yrs ago. apart from a few theatre productions the overall entertainment was poor, there were more quizzes on this ship on a daily basis than ever before. One busker left the ship but not replaced mid cruise. Pianists only played for 45 min each session. Everything was very repetitive ( even the quiz questions). No appearance of the ...

Would I cruise again with P&O?

We've been cruising exclusively with P&O for the past ten years. The latest cruise was to the Med from Southampton. I really like P&O but post COVID the quality of service does make me question if we will cruise with them again. We accept that the acute gastroenteritis outbreak didn't help matters (we later found out that there was also COVID cases but these were not mentioned on the 1800 ...

True definition of a cruise holiday

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

P & O advertise an enjoyable holiday at reasonable price and this is exactly what it provides. The Acadia is not a glamorous or modern ship but has its own charm. Our embarkation was slick and because we had a time slot we boarded the ship within half an hour of turning up at the port in Southampton. We were signed off at our muster station and went directly to have lunch in the Belvedere ...

P&O Seem to have lost the plot

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We chose this cruise because it went to a few ports we hadn't visited before, and it was at a time (April) when we thought the weather would be good but not too hot. We have sailed with P&O 6 times before and 3 of those on Arcadia, and have always enjoyed ourselves. Not on this occasion. We were surprised when our Cabin Steward advised us there was no evening turn-down and that he wasn't ...

The Worst Cruise We Have Been On

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We have sailed with P&O several times on Arcadia and Azura and always enjoyed ourselves. There is usually a good speaker programme, quirky things to do and see (vegetable carving!), bring lessons and sessions on sea days and generally good food. We chose this cruise for the itinerary - going to places we hadn't been to before. It was obvious when we met our cabin steward that things had changed ...

Poorly organised throughout

Review for a Trans-Ocean Cruise on Arcadia

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

Thigs went wrong right from the beginning when we arrived after flying overnight and our transferred, which was included in the cost of the cruise, failed to turn up and we had to make our own way to the ship. We then spent three hours waiting to check-in, which was unacceptable. Once on board we found lifts out of order and several toilets and sinks in the public areas also out of order, and ...

Review for a Asia Cruise on Arcadia

10+ Cruises • Age 80s

This was the sixth cruise my wife and I have taken on board Arcadia. Prior cruises have been very rewarding and enjoyable. Sadly, that appears to have ended. Food was appalling, including the main dining room. Meat was of low quality and the fish was invariably died out. The main course never once looked appetizing and consequently the dinner plates were returned to the waiters with only ...
