boycie

brilliant pics brought back a lot of memories.

you can also do it free on messenger ,nearly all caribean bars have free wi fi .

I have found that you don't get labels or booklet if you book safer fare , but allways get them on select fares .

we did a cruise on azura a few years ago it was xmas & new year ,at 8 pm Caribbean time the haggis was piped through the dinning room(it was midnight in uk) ,then at midnight there was a party on the pooldecks.hope you enjoy.

use the ho-ho bus a good tour of Monaco , it also drives around the f1 course

super video well done

yes you can use the buffet ,but some areas of the ship will not serve you

unless you are dressed formally,

use the local taxis they know the best beaches & are much cheaper

also they will come & get you ,to take you back to the ship .

We are due to travel in 11 weeks, when do you get your booklet. I thought last time we got ours about 12 weeks before but may be wrong.

if you booked a saver fare you wont get a booklet,

go to cruise personaliser & print luggage labels & e tickets.

quick question i hope someone can answer for me please.

 

On the day we disembark the ship in barbados i understand that we will be given a time for our transfer back to the airport. As our flight isn't until nearly 7pm we want to book a taxi and explore the island, finishing off at the airport so in effect arranging our own airport transfer. I assume p&o don't object to this providing we let them know that we won't be needing their transport?

you can leave the ship at anytime on the day of departure

you either leave when p&o will transfer you or make your own

way to the airport.

There are lots of taxis outside the terminal have a deal with

a driver and he will take you wherever you want to go.

A great way to enjoy yor last day.hope this helps we have done the same as you are planning and had no problems..

Hi All' date=' The wife and I have just retired, so to celebrate we are going on our very first Caribbean Xmas cruise on the Aurora. Even though we have cruised many times with P & O (we are Mediterranean tier), never to the Caribbean, we have been told, warned that we need all sorts of vaccinations for this trip, I have rubbished it but the wife has got jittery. Any advise from all you old hands.[/quote']

 

been to Caribbean many times ,never needed any jabs as others have said speak to your practice nurse.

tell the wife not to worry the Caribbean is a wonderfull place go & enjoy it....

google boatyard Barbados ,there is a film of the beach & bar & activities,

its a very popular place ,havnt been myself ,but have spoken to people who

have & they really enjoyed it . give it a try enjoy the cruise.

My husband bought a long ''gold'' chain in December and was told that if the colour came off he could get it replaced. Surprise surprise the colour is starting to change but there is nothing on the receipt about changing it or in fact where you can complain. Why are P+O allowed to sell this stuff if they know their customers are going to be disappointed?

do local jewellers sell GOLD chain from reels ?

its not sold by P&O but by a franchise.

yes I check mine every other day on board ,

just ask for a print off at reception because no interactive account review

on cabin tv.

Thanks for all your speedy replies. Looks like the OJ will be going in the luggage; good job we are sailing from Southampton.

orange juice available in buffet until miday take all you want

for you cabin ,I usually ask barman for plastic pint pot

keep in cabin fridge..
