Britannia. Current occupancy.

[etruriaguy]

Hi everyone. 
 

Apologies if this has been asked elsewhere. 
 

Does anyone know roughly what the current occupancy for the Britannia is right now.  We are on in 2 weeks tomorrow and just interested to know where this was at. 
 

thanks so much 

 

happy sailing.

Funnily enough, I'm onboard in Rotterdam at the moment and just half hour ago was wondering the same thing.

If I remember, I'll pop down to reception tomorrow morning and ask.

At a guess - 70%. 

Hopefully Tim will give a precise answer tomorrow.

It will be interesting to hear if they've gone beyond 70%.  Apparently Celebrity Silhouette sailed her first ex Southampton voyage at over 90%.  There apparently were major Covid problems onboard, possibly as a result.

 

My BIL was on previous Britannia cruise and said it was busy but comfortable.  Hopefully the increase will be gradual as it would be a shame to introduce problems in the manner described on the Celebrity boards.  To date P&O appear to have done well, long may it continue.

Sorry for the slow reply.

 

Full day in Rotterdam so we went ashore in search of some decent food!

 

Just been to reception. They wouldn't give me an exact number of passengers but did say it was approx. 3000.

So in the 80% ball park.

Thanks so much for your help with this Tim. And for all the other replies everyone.  
 

Be good to see it a bit busier but comfortably so.

Some of the deals coming through suggest that cabins that may have been sidelined are being released for sale. Someone posted on the dark side that Ambassador Ambience sailed last week with only 4 spare cabins. We noticed that Tui have put up a tranche of their river cruise cabins for sale on their site whereas a few weeks ago they were showing as full.

SAGA is also sailing full on some cruises. SAGA made over £161,000,000 in cruise sales in the last six months. This level of recovery in some lines is very encouraging for us all.

It depends upon destination as some cruise ports/countries still require 5% of cabins to be maintained for quarantine passengers.
