Yet we are on 14 night cruise in May and there are 4 formal nights

Thanks thats good news, I did set up a thread with this very query a few weeks back.

Emirates Flight was very good, 4hr or so layover.

I think only 23hrs inclding layovers is pretty good. We travelled with cunard on a segment some years ago, that was with Emirates, with a 25hr journey

Thanks all for your help.

OK thanks. I assume then that the luggage is collected outside the room at the end of the cruise and transported to the airport, where we collect it again for checking in?

Does anyone know if these fly cruises are the same as those going to the Carribean, in that your luggage is taken to and from the Airport /ship? I'm assuming the flights we are on are charter flights?

Get straight on coach from plane nothing more at airport You will need to show boarding pass at port and get photo taken even though you have done it online Very quick process after going thru the queue

We have just got off the latest Britannia cruise and we did not complete anything before entering Curacao. Just a tip take a phot of your passport page for your phone as ome ports require photo id on shore so ot saves have to take passport etc,

We are on the same cruise I have packed my 4 Carribean shirts which I wear whether celebration nights or not

We do the majority of the time we have been on cruises

We did this last November with P&O. I dont remember the ground being uneven, you have to do a bit of walking, its not 90 minutes of walking though. The worst part was the coach journey (I hate coaches with my long legs) , although we did have a guide talking theorugh it all on route. Catherines bar was in situ, it looks a lot better on TV than it does from the beach, we were able to have a sit down and a drink in the bar

I have tried to book PE on my cruise in Sept, unfortuantely it is full, does that mean I would be entitled to a refund of my deposit? Will it stop me going? No but that is my choice, I am 6'2" and will just have to live with it. I fully understand those for 'medical' reasons who need more room

You can ring either your travel agent or P&O and pay the money (too mcuh for what you get in my view), then 14 weeks before you can pick your seat.

Not in our case
