P&O Calendar

#1

Post by Happydays »

Hi Everyone
We got our Peninsular Club P&O 2017 calendar and Christmas card in the post yesterday. I thought some of the photos although good were similar... What do others think?

No calendar, nor Christmas card, here - but then I am just a lowly peasant.

Now then how many calendars can I but with my 50% Adonia discount?

Did your Mummy never tell you to show some gratitude when someone was kind enough to give you a gift ?!

We also love the Country file calendar. Have purchased some as presents.
I don't like to knock P and O when it produces and sends these gifts out to loyalty customer gets but it could have had a little more variety. There are quite a few pictures of the Fjords.

Including three pictures taken within a few hundred yards of each other at Skjolden. I thought the pictures were a bit of a mixed bunch - some very good, some less so, and others, - while good - were not what I would have chosen for a promotional calendar

There's just no pleasing some people ! Overall, I think it's a nice thing to have.

I didn't say it wasn't.
I'm quite pleased with P and O at the moment as when I booked for the Adonia i had a surprise obc on top of the other for being a loyalty customer. My travel agent said it does that sometimes.
I'm not complaining.

Off out to lunch today to wave goodbye to a friend who is moving up north next week.

What rank of Peninsular member do you need to be to receive such largesse from P&O?

PS Watch it Cubie some of us northerners pack a hefty punch!

I can't understand it. We received a calendar this week and have been off their mailing list for months!!

We have a Viking calendar, so spoilt for choice.

Happy Christmas to all.

If you still qualify for Peninsular Club benefits, you will receive the calendar regardless. At least you're not moaning about the pictures !!

Too many fjord photos and, even though we love her, Aurora photos follow close for over exposure.

Where are some of the more unusual ports of call and the exotic ones?

It's very nice of them - especially as we don't cruise with them any more - but I do hate small calendars because there is so little room to write our appointments.

Our P&O calendar is never used. I always request a basic 5 section planner from Mr. Claus via WH Smith! :)

We have one of those from WH Smith. I always think how expensive they are for what you get but they are invaluable for keeping track of where we are and where we should be.
I have the P&O calendar up in my 'office'.

My social calendar is now so minuscule that anything around postage stamp size per day would be adequate. :(

We were the same moved into Caribbean after our Adonia cruise in January :thumbup: feels like a long time ago! Have been on two other cruises in the mean time although one was the disappointing one with Princess :sarcasm:
