Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Just to clarify. I am not degrading Premier Inn in anyway shape or form. I use them on a regular basis and they are great and fantastic value for money. In fact I am a shareholder, so know a bit about them.
  2. Please take a look at the P&O website and quote me a cruise number that shows a balcony for a £100 pppn (£200 per couple). I can’t find one.
  3. Then, at the price I am paying my comment still stands, ‘there is a feeling of being in a Premier Inn at sea’
  4. Wow, you’re obviously getting a better deal than me. Our cruise to Canada in September is costing £375 per night for a couple. Hhhmm, am I paying to subsidise other cruises I wonder?
  5. On Aurora at the moment. Went to the Captain’s welcome party. I normally drink red wine but was told that had been stopped. Only a glass of P&O bubbly or orange juice provided. Although staff are still superb there is now a feeling of being in a Premier Inn at sea.
  6. This upgrade bidding lark is obviously another P&O practical joke. I received not one but two emails inviting me to bid. Then I received this message. We just wanted to let you know that unfortunately on this occasion, we haven't been able to accept your offer for a cabin upgrade on your upcoming holiday. so I went online and checked. They are still selling mini suites on my sailing.
  7. This is the first time I have received one so I have applied for a mini suite. I’ll let you know if my bid is successful.
  8. I have received an email from P&O regarding my forthcoming cruise: We hope you're excited about your upcoming cruise – we can't wait to welcome you on board. ‘There's still time to upgrade your accommodation through P&O Cruises Upgrade if you'd like to make your holiday even more special. Simply place an offer below on the type of cabin you'd like to upgrade to and we'll let you know if it's accepted.’ Has anyone else received one of these emails and better still, got a bargain upgrade?
  9. My experience is quite the opposite. Being a Baltic level cruiser I cruise on average 4 times a year. My carnival shares are held in certificate form and each time evidence of share ownership is required my TA just emails a Copy to the shareholders benefits dept. Last week my TA did just that and received a reply saying that the certificate was unacceptable as it was not dated in the last three months. It’s obvious that P&O staff have no idea what they are doing!
  10. Carnival has announced plans to raise $1billion by issuing new stock. https://www.hl.co.uk/shares/share-research/202207/carnival-1bn-dollar-capital-raise-announced?utm_source=Silverpop&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=E00RN&utm_content=Share research&theSource=E00RN&Override=1&utm_campaign=E00RN_Share Research_Opt-ins&utm_source=AdobeCampaign&utm_medium=email&theSource=E00RN&e_cti=12534818&e_ct=F&Override=1&deliveryName=DM34348
  11. NCL to remove requirement for pre cruise test on August 1st. I suspect other cruise lines will soon follow.
  12. It may seem a bit simplistic, but older people tend to go on cruises for several reasons e.g. travel to foreign countries without flying, having someone else do their cooking and cleaning, not using gas and electricity at home. These and other reasons will ensure that cruise lines continue to have healthy booking figures. At the time of writing this post Carnival shares are bucking the stock market trend and rising above $9 per share. Please do not write off Carnival yet, there is still a lot of mileage left in this company.
