Our TA advises that they no longer do bonded luggage, has anyone any experience of this.

Certainly was bonded in December.  I spoke to P&O last week regarding the 18 February Arvia cruise and was told I had two choices of flights to Barbados Gatwick on TUI or Heathrow on Virgin, both charters.  I was told there was a problem sourcing charter flights - certainly bears out looking at the number of cruise only Caribbean cruises left this season.  Couid it be to do with that?

Thanks, it was P&O who told the TA this, they have since checked with TUI and all cruise flights to Barbados have bonded luggage
