  1. After reading that @terrierjohn had booked via a TA and found out the cabin number, just checked our 2 early saver bookings made via a TA and on the P&O Mycruises page it shows the cabin no (sadly no upgrade) but over a year to go on the first so still plenty of time.
  2. Kids are welcome in the Glass House (not may places where they are not on Britannia)
  3. Just recently we booked with a TA, on an Ealrly Saver, got their discount and just prior to me saying yes to them over the phone Mrs Snibs said do they do BLC. I asked and got some more off (not a lot but still something!). Then checked and realised should have got nothing😀
  4. Just back from a fortnight cruise on Azura and ate in the Beach House 3 times. Managed to get booked ok but it does get full due to limited galley size a limited amount of covers per half hour
  5. Wouldn’t surprise me, but if it can work on Ventura, they should manage it on the sister ship Azura and the more modern Britannia if they put a bit of effort to do so. Mind as the none app ‘app’ is half arsed so is this.
  6. Would guess your cabin would have been included in the 31 if hadn’t been allocated to you at the time of looking, so as to give maximum choice to someone paying select fare.
  7. Can anyone confirm if Peroni has been replaced by Moretti onboard Azura. This could reduce the bar bill if true
  8. Nice to hear someone has received an upgrade they are happy with instead of just P&O relocating people into their “upgrade” of the same grade of cabin. Enjoy your holiday
  9. I think that if the Pullman bed is used then the normal beds have to be twin configuration and not as a double so perhaps an adult uses the Pullman bed
  10. There is a decent beach too but a decent walk from the shuttle bus drop off point, particularly in the Aug heat. We gave up and just looked around instead
  11. Civitavecchia and Livorno for Rome and Florence as plenty to see / re-see (like Barcelona). Downside being the travel to and from. Mind if doing it yourself it adds a bit of additional adrenaline to the day!
  12. Had a suite for the first time in Feb on Azura. The only thing we asked of the butler was to book a few restaurants at the start of the week so a concierge would have suited us.After that he would come to the cabin early evening to check on us but we had no requests. He was covering our cabin due to a colleague being ill so am sure was being kept busy having additional suites to attend to. As others have said we booked the suite for the larger room and balcony (family of four), Enjoyed the perk of breakfast at the Epicurean but other things like the canapés and CD player are a rather dated concept and not touched.
  13. Don’t think I have ever heard an announcement regarding such an event and have been on a few cruises with my children in kids club (hence would need to be a serious concern). As the opening hours aren’t that long as they shut for lunch and tea I suspect they will just comfort the child until someone comes to collect them. You are also able to call them to check all is ok with little Timmy.
  14. The pools aren’t covered on Britannia, so likely to be a bit 🥶 chilly, but am sure once and in and swimming about you will be ok. And on the positive side will be less popular.
  15. For kids club you don’t get pagers but they will try and track you down by where you last used your card (bar/shop/etc) and also ring your cabin. I would imagine if that doesn’t work a message on the tannoy to go to the kids club depending on how desperate it is. I think from memory you do get a pager if they are in night nursery though as they don’t want a crying child to wake all the others!
  16. Also I believe if you ask they will provide you with a baby bath (am sure we were provided with one - but that a good few years ago). From memory the superior deluxe cabins on Azura/ Ventura are D and E aft
  17. It’s a historic town on a hill - but as pictures speak a thousand words …
  18. Why would she as not in the same cabin as you, has no loyalty and not in a suite?
  19. When we did it last August on Azura, it was a tender at Zablace and then a bus to Sibenik. Didn’t find it choppy but was subject to the exhaust fumes coming in to the tender on the return leg
  20. But are kids breakfast free like at the Prmier Inn 🤔
  21. I believe this is a free phone nr for P&O 0800 052 3840
  22. It was a good few years ago when we had but don’t recall any noise from below.
  23. Previously we have put the labels on prior to checking in the bags at the airport. Make sure they aren’t removed by the check in person though. I believe you have to collect your bags and take them to the bus for the transfer to the ship so you could do put them on then if you prefer. With regard to the luggage allowance, I have checked ours for feb cruise also with Jet2 from Manchester and it states 22kg. Cant help with the other questions but if the knitting needles were packed in the hold luggage and not taken in the airplane cabin can’t see it being an issue with P&O. Enjoy your holiday
  24. Just had the email as going on Azura in Feb. No testing required and kids not required to be vaccinated at all. Seems rather inconsistent to me, it’s neither all or nothing
  25. On Azura last month. Couldn’t see any washing powder/tablets on sale in the shop so asked at the counter and was given some for free.
