I really don't blame you its your money your holiday no point going on a cruise if you don't feel happy
We still have the FCC from Oceana so fingers crossed we can use it next year, nothing planned before September then back to Barbados.

what you have read is not by the cruise companies just people making assumptions, we have 3 cruises booked and have not read anything official yet about what the onboard experience will be like.
I agree with you everything could be pretty much as normal, but at no cost I'm not prepared to risk a less than enjoyable time. I'm taking a break to a hotel I've been to before and already contacted them re their restrictions. If the reports on cruising are favourable when it restarts we will cruise earlier next year.

We will cruise next year, after 2 cancellations this year and losing Oceana next year we decided to defer the Christmas cruise on Azura till next year taking advantage of the P&O offer. We're going on a Warner holiday in the IOW in 2 weeks to replace a holiday in Spain that was cancelled. Also booked a couple of weeks in Barbados over Chrimbo and New year this year.
It's not the idea of going away that bothers us, whether it be on plane or ship it's not knowing what the changes on the cruise will be, don't fancy being restricted the way I've read we could be, so defer for a year and see, in the mean time we will holiday.

Yes, that is the advice I saw on the TV
Don't swamp 111 unless you are really ill.
Agree with that if you can which is everybody on here use the 111 online not the phone. This has a Q&A on it pretty good really.

Looks like you’ll be stuck in your hotel then. Cyprus have announced that all UK nationals arriving in Cyprus must self quarantine for 14 days. Sorry.
Oh well another cancellation then. Glad I've got Whitby booked in July 😁

Just had my mail for our cruise next week, extra £400 OB, plus the new cancellation terms. Seems pretty reasonable to me.
FCC to be used by 31/12/2021 for cruises up to end March 2022 is a goodly time frame. We are going unless P&O cancel but can't see that on a reposition cruise.

For your first cruise I would say midships as you're not going to know if you will suffer seasickness at all. There is less rock in the middle of the ship than forward or aft therefore less susceptibility to motion sickness. Neither the manager nor I suffer and prefer an aft balcony love watching the wake.

We usually book early and normally get the best price, currently over £500 each to the good on a P&O cruise + £450 OB, We're up £125 each on Explorer in September, but we did drop a couple of hundred on our last P&O in March swings and roundabouts you take your chances when you book. The main advantage of booking early is choice the rest is down to luck.

Just checked mine and everything is ok I'm running Opera not tried on any other browsers though.

This looks really good especially as a rock fan Cogs and Rockology Metallica and Floyd on a cruise I will be there

Generally a change of clothes as the cases may not arrive before dinner and any needed medication.

don't take any notice of calories anywhere, any time. Don't understand the units of alcohol either. Don't have time to worry about such things far to busy enjoying myself.

Lot of truth in the old saying "what doesn't kill you makes you strong". child of the 50/60's hardly ever ail anything, except smoking related (which I gave up 7 years ago).

Cabins for sure not rooms or staterooms...ships if I'm on a boat some junior officer is taking me ashore... definitely a deck not a floor (love the one about the ground floor).Port and Starboard Forard and Aft not the alternatives. I don't have brunch either always a late breakfast
-
I can't really answer that we would stay in the same area but a couple of decks higher but that's us I wouldn't be bothered if I'd got those cabins personaly, you won't have a restricted view and it's not far to the lifts from were you are all good, one thing to remember no stairs midships, so if you decide to go down the stairs you need to walk aft.
P&O please enlighten us with your plans for social distancing

This is a major problem that is bothering me. It did have a large influence on us deferring our Christmas cruise for a year. I can't see how they are going to accommodate the crew, the living space is cramped now and presuming they are going to need more crew for the extra cleaning, and service in the buffet, where will they put them, 3 in the tiny cabins they have wouldn't be acceptable even with regular testing. No doubt a solution will be found but will it be acceptable to the paying guest?
