  1. +1... was on Iona in January. Highly recommend.
  2. I've heard they are trying to perfect a prawn and cheese pie! 🤣 😉
  3. I'll second that. Pearl or Coral, with Coral having the very slight edge. We are early diners 6-6.30 and never had to wait for a table for 2. Have a lovely cruise.
  4. The Godfather? I heard they made him an offer he couldn't refuse.... But he wanted to bring his horse 🐴 😱
  5. I became disillusioned with 2 different TA's during the pandemic, so have only booked direct since. P&O do honour price match. https://www.pocruises.com/why-choose-us/price-promise I have successfully done this a number of times at the point of booking. Anyone I have spoken to directly have been great and very accommodating. If you don't have a preferred travel agent, give them a go.
  6. I am a fan of the open walk in wardrobe too, and very happy that Princess have carried this forward to Sky and Enchanted too👍
  7. Howabout going to the shore excursion desk once onboard and see if anything appeals to you for a nice day out?
  8. We couldn't wait for our 2nd Iona cruise to come round, so have slipped a cheeky Arvia one in while waiting! 😉 Hope you feel better very soon.
  9. I' m sorry, I don't know the answer to your question, but I award you 'typo of the week' 🏆🤣
  10. Yes, it can go as an excluded condition but would prefer to have every eventuality covered, especially if going worldwide. Just me being over cautious I guess. He now has annual European cover for £251, so making full use of that! 🙂
  11. DD returned from Iceland on Tuesday and wasn't so lucky during her trip😭Luck of the draw.... she'll just have to go again 👍
  12. DH was covered nicely by major bank while he was diagnosed and waiting for operation. Now he's had the operation (2021) and it was 100% successful, 'computer says no!' 🤷 Tried Nationwide, just the same and other major banks. Has anyone else experienced this? - ie fine to insure before you are fixed but not once you've had an operation?
  13. ....And after the 3rd or 4th, who cares anyway? 💃🕺
  14. https://www.pocruises.com/why-choose-us/price-promise Have all the details of the other TA site to hand (i.e dated screenshot) when you call P&O direct.
  15. Thanks - we will find out soon! Can't wait. We really liked Iona, hence why we booked Arvia so quickly.
  16. We enjoyed Olive Grove on Iona but the menu on Arvia looks reduced in items. No starter sharing platters or main course pizza? Can anyone who's been on both ships compare their experiences at the Olive Grove. Many thanks
  17. Well there's definitely 2 Iona's!❤️😀
  18. Along with the baked Alaska on formal nights?!🦐😀
  19. I'll second that! Exactly the same for us in early January. We walked back in half the time it takes on the bus. Very pleasant.
  20. Let's hope security don't ask you to drink some!🤣🤢
  21. We were on Iona earlier this month and booked another whilst onboard. (Select, balcony) We got an extra £100 obc and £50 pp deposit. Can't say about benefits for solo travellers though. Hope it works out well for you. Enjoy your cruise on Iona.
