We are just back from Arvia and I am pleased to say we are both well!

   We took many precautions including washing and sanitising our hands regularly and only using our cabin toilet. 

   I know someone on here thinks we are being over zealous and should be building up our tolerances by not sanitising all the time. And also that the only way you can get Noro is by putting your fingers in your mouth when not clean!!!! 

   We will take a risk on not building up a tolerance to some pretty disgusting people that think it is ok to use the toilet and not wash their hands afterwards yet touch everything on their way around the ship. I bet these people have a pretty high tolerance to getting ill!!

  I have seen some disgusting behaviour this last 2 weeks that has really put me off TBH. Some passengers are ignoring rules or being ignorant to the rules and it doesn't seem that there is anyone to police this and stop it happening. When the dust settles I will do a review of our 2 week Med cruise. 

   Overall I think we have just about enjoyed it but there is too many annoying things now that don't make it as enjoyable as it used to be. 

On a side note just one of the more annoying things I saw everyday was vaping in public areas. We saw people vaping in the casino in the theatre!!! Yes the theatre!! Both sides of deck 8. We could also smell them regularly when we entered the lifts. I don't vape but think the only area is on Deck 18? Apologies if this is incorrect. Oh and anywhere on deck 13 (chuckle)

   

There was a guy on deck 9 that would openly vape in the corridor even when the cleaners were about. Nothing was said to him at any point.

Well said i come off the Iona on 15th June runny nose cough even in my chest but a row days later now i feel fine and i used the sanitizer every time of those stations not just when i was entering or leaving a certain place. But if you read the post asking people caught the Norovirus on Iona a lot of people will say they did without taking the test. It's like having a badge to some people must be Norovirus couldn't be anything like you say Cruise Cough. For me it was probably spending to much time in Air Conditioning  then returning to Fresh Air all the time.Yes people will have caught Norovirus but where from. 

Not quite sure anyone is mistaking norovirus for a cruise cough unless they’re coughing water out of their backsides. 

I would assume everything is back to normal levels on Arvia as all of the portable sanitisers have been removed today and no more being prompted to wash hands or sanitise when entering the buffet. 

We haven’t seen a single table cleaned with anything other than a dry cloth in Horizon so far this cruise on Arvia. The tables are filthy. 
 

In fact when we got on yesterday and went for a late lunch in Horizon there were cornflakes still underneath the table from breakfast on the previous cruise, so I’m not quite sure what they did during the extra 3 hours for “deep cleaning”
 

If they want the passengers to take sanitation seriously then they need to take it seriously themselves and lead by example. 

Do we think earliest bag drop will move in line with the delay? 
 

I could do with getting rid of my cases before 14:15

Yes I did book direct  and have had lots of emails from P&O about this cruise. But nothing about delayed boarding. 

 

@Breezy5631 see you at 11.15 on Sunday, fingers crossed we aren't sat around for 3 hours

I phoned them up. Definitely delayed, new arrival time 14:15.
