Is this called side to side? Are the cruise ships with the same cruise line? Just wondering what would happen if one or other of the ships were delayed getting into Southampton.

One of the things we look for when booking a cabin is to make sure there is a deck of cabins above and below us. Imagine a seesaw. Most movement is at the ends, far less towards or in the middle.

I gather some damage is also being repaired and the damaged lifeboat returned.

Bin Man - Yes thank you. Bit wary with some of the reviews but no doubt far more happy cruisers that had not reviewed. Easy to get lots of steps in with a ship that size!

I was on the sailing. Yes a passenger was taken ill and was taken off by helicopter. Before the incident we had been sailing at I think 16knots approx. After we increased to 21 knots. Thoughts, prayers and best wished to the passenger, family and friends.

We live in and flew out from Birmingham and we were put on the Gatwick flight. From leaving the ship at 11:15to getting home we were traveling just shy of 23 hours.

Went through 25 June 23. We were very early but sailed through fast track. Had access to Lounge but can't enter until 3 hours before flight departure time.

Yes, they do. At least I know Discovery does.

Marella basically provide the transport to and from KSC and your entrance ticket. I think they have a KSC employee on all the coaches to warm you up and give you hints how to enjoy your day. The time there is your own.

My understanding is the the Birmingham flight flew from Melbourne to Birmingham with the land based holidaymakers and then they were redistributed from Birmingham. We were put on the Gatwick flight which was late taking off due to luggage difficulties and also some passengers being on the Gatwick plane instead of the Glasgow plane. I understand the Gatwick plane arrived in Melbourne on Saturday and flew over to La Romana DR on Sunday evening. From Gatwick we then underwent a 3 hour coach journey to Birmingham Then we got a taxi home. From leaving the ship at 11:15 local time we were travelling just shy of 23 hours.

Think I read on Book of Face that itinerary changed and will depart New York a couple of hours later than original itinerary.

I gather adult admission is $75 and then the cost of getting there. I saw elsewhere someone reckoned uber or equivalent $50. So a lot depends on how many of you are in your party. 1 or 2 adults then probably not much in it. Also if visiting on changeover day on a ship tour then hopefully will get priority on going ashore. If booking rivately then there could be a delay in getting ashore.

We fly 23 June from Birmingham. Our itinerary on second week has been changed, only noticed when I went on to Cruise Control to look for excursions. Key West has been pulled, Day 9 now Bimini followed by Miami. No totification from agent or Marella/TUI

Do you think that is that poor forward planning from P&O or poor communication between P&O and airlines?

Perhaps the idea of bigger, higher capacity cruise ships did not take into account the increase in number of flights required to fill them. Particularly when not sailing out of UK. At least you have been told well in advance unlike those of us on the original maiden voyage. PR wise P&O do not cover themselves in glory.
