Rare Presto2 Posted March 15, 2016 Author #101 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Hi, the cruise 10thAugust is 14 day so no cruise starting 17th August. Even better ---- I know we shouldn't wish our loves away but we are excited already. Thanks so much for your help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted March 15, 2016 #102 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Even better ---- I know we shouldn't wish our loves away but we are excited already. Thanks so much for your help :) You're welcome. I hope that you get the itinerary that you want. We are waiting for Monday to look because we don't know what we want to do yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted March 15, 2016 #103 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I just had a Peninsular preview book today. We are either Oriana or Arcadia September/October - 19 nights Greek Islands. But that's all it says, so don't know the ports yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's all it says, so don't know the ports yet. Sounds to me that the new itineraries are better and that they have listened to the views of cruisers re that they want. Not sure what you think.

cruisefan2012 Posted March 15, 2016 #105 Share Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) Are there any short breaks between January / April 2018 (I know its a LONG way off yet but I like to plan ahead) ie Iberia, Canaries, Spain/France... Ideally not on Ventura... up to 7 nights ?? Edited March 15, 2016 by cruisefan2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted March 15, 2016 #106 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Presto, looks like it could be good, but we will see this weekend I guess. It says they will be on their website on 21st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Presto2 Posted March 15, 2016 Author #107 Share Posted March 15, 2016 PS Our post should read that we 'don't want to wish our LIVES' away not 'our LOVES'. Ha ha, just seen it. It looks a bit dodgy as it stands and we can't edit it now. :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally not on Ventura... up to 7 nights ?? With 2 in the Caribbean and 3 on world / long cruises and Oceana doing long USA and Caribbean it only leaves Ventura.

Thejuggler Posted March 16, 2016 #112 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Are there any prices given yet? We had a Princess mailing today and the costs are far more than I would expect for early booking. £150-200 a night for an inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a Princess mailing today and the costs are far more than I would expect for early booking. £150-200 a night for an inside. I suggest you try RCI, their Head start offer for 2017 is £300 per cabin off for inside or window, £500 per balcony cabin or £1000 per suite. Plus additional discount for Crown & Anchor members, and their brochure prices start well below the Princess offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Presto2 Posted March 18, 2016 Author #115 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Are they any other rumours floating about ?... So excited !! Drives me nuts that it goes on line on Monday when we are at work. Why not do it at the weekend when more people may be off work and more able to browse ?? :rolleyes: Oh well, not long to go now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Presto2 Posted March 20, 2016 Author #116 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Just been looking at the Moments magazine which we received today and it looks like Oceana is doing the Greek Islands from Valletta (Malta) in the summer of 2017.E713 27/07/17 (14 nights) - Fly UK to Valletta - Athens - Mykonos - Ephesus - Chania - Valletta - Split - Venice - Ravenna - Dubrovnik - Valletta - Fly to UK I'm sure this will be repeated in August 2017??? Oceana is also visiting Rhodes in June 2017 and Messina' date=' Sicily in Apr 2017. Looks good!!!!!:D:D[/quote'] Have only just seen this one - must have missed it in the week. Very happy with the first week but not too inspired with Split or Ravenna. Have been to Split before so will see what it offers and never been to Ravenna so somewhere to explore I suppose. Silly question but what is the Moments magazine ?? Never heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am due to go to Ravenna in May with Celebrity so have been researching it It is apparently famous for mosaics It is easy for tours to Bologna - which is a city I love and apparently San Marino so I am sorted with a private group to visit San Marino!

PJ's Posted March 20, 2016 #120 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I don't get sent that either :( We receive this magazine maybe once or twice per year. This year it came through the post last week. It says on the front MOMENTS For Peninsular Club Members and on the first page inside say "This issue, we're giving you a sneak peek of our inspiring new collection for 2017/18. Blah.....Blah..... It gives a cruise calendar 2016-2018 and also the schedule of senior officers for 2016-17 so if you want to know who is the captain when you cruise let me know and I'll have a quick look. The only ship which is not shown is Adonia. It also has some good articles and some competitions which you can enter to win various things inc luxury stay at Combermere Abbey Cottages, on the border of Shropshire/Cheshire, a day out at RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 2016, subscription to wine club and the P&O Cruses Monopoly game. It also has some itineraries for 2017 including this one for: Oceana E707C 11th May 2017 - 14 nights. Fly UK to Valletta - Athens - Mykonos - Ephesus - Chania - Valletta - Dubrovnik - Hvar - Venice - Split - Valletta Fly to UK. and Oceana E710A 7 nights 15 June 2017 - Fly UK to Valletta - Athens - Mykonos - Ephesus - Rhodes - Valletta Fly to UK I thought that all Peninsular Club Members receive this magazine.

I can't have ticked "no mail" as I get other P&O mailings in the post - normally after I've already had them by email! Could I ask who is Captain on Azura on 2nd Oct 2016?

Rare Presto2 Posted March 20, 2016 Author #122 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I thought that all Peninsular Club Members receive this magazine. We are only at the bog standard Pacific level so we don't get it for some reason and never have. Seems stupid to me as I would have thought that P&O would want the custom of those of us who have done a cruise before. Then again, thanks to this site, we have CC members like you sharing the good news :) Thanks again I just wish those cruises were up NOW as I am at work when they come on line tomorrow !!!!!! :D:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can change your options on your account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare P&O SUE Posted March 20, 2016 #125 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I am Pacific tier too - strange! I am actually off work this week but going away tomorrow for a couple of days - methinks I'll be up very early to have a look :D Very annoying as it's been the end of the week last 2 years (I know because I don't work Thursdays and Fridays!)
