2 couples on a 2 day cruise booked from Hamburg - Southampton , £500 for inside , £1700 for haven paid.

Allowed to board at midday in itinary , arrived at midday and should have got there by 11, we booked an inside as we always do and our friends booked a haven suite so we have a good perspective of both sides of the coin.
