    Yes, Suites and Ligurian first, then other tiers that have priority, then the rest according to time.
  2. Fionboard
    I am. Hate that place!

    I am reasonably fit and once walked betweent Science Park and city. Took about 45 minutes quick walking. Some people do not realise how far the two are apart, especially if they have not visited before. Some were mobility impaired too. People missed seeing Valencia and had a "shopping opportunity" instead. As I said, this is unacceptable.

    Agree. MDR quite good, apart from some undercooked and underprepared (cabin stewards?)veg. No complaints so far. Never use buffet.

    Never found a decent alcohol free wine. Just taste like weak grape juice. However, the zero guinness and beers are quite good, and the zero gordons gin. Some of the fever tree flavoured tonics are a good choice too.

    Yes. Wanted to get away from the flipping rain! 🌧

    No. Luckily, having been to Valencia many times, I went to Denia and had a very nice day there. Can't believe P&O let their pax down so badly by not dropping off in the city as per usual. Not acceptable.

    🏑 Ouch!
  9. Fionboard
    Absolutely. Lovely place.

    Or played hockey. Brutal!

    Friends in Alicante say Spain outlook for next few days is rain. We are headed for Italy. Hope weather there will improve! Fingers crossed. Nice at home though. Typical!

    Partly. Stuck in Barca for two days as tendering in Villefranche not possible so port (my favourite) cancelled. No internet TV for next two days apparently. Football fans must be ashore watching matches as pub is empty! Loss of drink revenue? Yesterday, shuttle to Valencia did not go to city but dumped everyone at the science park and shopping centre miles away! Lots of very unhappy pax!

    Lucky man! Wish I had some pink specs like his! Unfortunately, have to say things not too good on Arcadia at present.
  14. Fionboard
    Talking of alcohol sales. Pub on Arcadia has no internet TV so no football. It is empty so I suppose fans are all ashore watching matches. Must be losing P&O drink revenue. Apparently will be no TV reception for next two days in Barcelona. What is going on?
  15. Fionboard
    Suspect no news is bad news in this case!
  16. Fionboard
    Porto Venere and sun sounds great to me. Just about to start raining in Spain! Enjoy.
  17. Fionboard
    Did not notice problems with Arcadia, but she is small now!
  18. Fionboard
    Priority only were allowed to board Arcadia first on 14th. Then the rest according to times.
  19. Fionboard
    As I said, it is a "pop up", not permanent fixture, that is why.
  20. Fionboard
    Avoid the buffet like the plague!
  21. Fionboard
    Can't blame a ship for viruses. Passengers transmit them.
  22. Fionboard
    Exactly!
  23. Fionboard
    Bug appeared second day so obviously brought on board. Unfortunately Noro is on most ships nowadays as well as many hotels. Seems to have taken over from covid! If only people had better hygiene habits!!
  24. Fionboard
    Not dated or tired! Back into a bar at night.

    On Iona in Cadiz last December we were docked away from the terminal. Not allowed to walk out and queue for 5 minute shuttle was horrendous. Be prepared, just in case!
