Thank you so much @kalos

There is one company at Ocean Terminal where you park yourself and keep keys but is not alongside the ship but is only a short walk. Please can you tell me which car park this is majortom10 Thank you!

Thanks so much for all the advice. We are 5-12 August so it seems that Penguin, Parking4cruises, CPS and Portside Meet and Greet are all fully booked. I can't seem to find a dedicated Triangle site - it takes me to something called Cruise Parking Ltd which doesn't look right? We don't need a hotel the night before as we are only around 70 miles away, I have messed up here and clearly should have booked months ago but I just didn't realise as we have always done fly cruises before. Looks like our options are pre-booking someone's driveway via Just Park, chancing West Quay shopping centre or doing a bit of research and maybe trying Airlynx or Cruise Parking Ltd if I can find out if they are reputable. Thanks so much for all the advice, you're all so helpful!

Thanks all, looks like it will be Ocean terminal. Any recommendations for places to park for those who have left it a bit late! Or have you heard of AeroPark?

Thank you

Hi, newbies to P and O here. We board Iona in 4 weeks, have just tried to book parking with parking 4 cruises and other similar sites recommended on here and I think we are too late. Have found a quote with a company called AeroPark but they need to know which terminal we depart from and we haven't had that info from P and O yet. Does Iona always depart from the same terminal? Any recommendations for other companies? Very grateful for any advice you guys are able to give me - thanks in advance!

These replies are so useful, thank you all

Thank you so much! Will stick with packing everything then, so glad we are going from Southampton and don't have any weight limits due to a flight!

Thanks everyone, looks like I need to get a new swimsuit after all! Looking forward to it xx

Did you notice whether people use the pool areas much?

Thanks everyone! Really appreciate the replies xx

Hi all, we've previously cruised with RCL and NCL, and always in the Med or the Caribbean. In August 23 we are doing our first ever Fjords cruise and it will be on Iona. I've read lots of reviews about what to wear when disembarked (basically take lots of layers it seems inc a hat and gloves!) but what do people tend to wear on board during the day? In the warmer climates lots of people wear shorts, t-shirts and swim wear in the day and just dress a little smarter in the evening, but I'm expecting it will be too cold for this in the Fjords. Are jeans and other casual clothing allowed on board during the day? Is there something more suitable? Obviously not planning to wear jeans in the evening! Thanks for any advice.
