We booked our cruise in November 2010 and got a substantial reduction on the brochure price but with no on board spend. We certainly feel we got value for money.
Our flights from Manchester were only an hour late leaving and on time for the return. Drinks were complimentary courtesy of P and O. Stepped off the plane in Barbados and straight to the boat via a coach from the aircraft steps. No immigration whatsoever. Perfect.
Asked for freedom dining but got a table for 8 at 6.30. After suffering from a little temper tantrum in private and a quiet word with the Maitre D we were allocated a table for 2 at 8.30. Problem sorted.
