Additional OBC
I am sure everyone, except me, knows this - but if you book another cruise within three months of returning from a P&O cruise you get some additional OBC. Not sure if the amount varies but we got an extra £50 each when we booked a cruise yesterday.

Re: Additional OBC
You may need to talk with someone at P&O to get it though.
I only found out when I was talking to their Cruise Specialist people.

We only found this out when we booked a cruise shortly after returning from an Adonia cruise. Our Bolsover agent told us that it automatically popped up when she put our new booking through.

Re: Additional OBC
I wont book direct with P&O anymore. I get a 5% discount on new bookings throught the Blue Light Card and Military Benefits.P&O will not pay both even though there is nothing in either T/C's or in their Booking conditions, this even though they signed up to giving these benefits. I use Bolsover who give me both Benefits without a quibble.

Re: Additional OBC
We have used this twice, once booking a select fare and once booking an early saver. You can't use it on a saver fare so no good for last minute cruises. You, therefore, have to decide whether the OBC is to your advantage or whether you are saving more by going for a saver fare.
Each time we have had a booklet sent to us with a code in it to quote but it looks like it automatically gets carried over when you do a booking within 3 months of last cruise. Being the suckers we are, it has made us start booking much earlier than we used to and we have even paid a select fare, something we never used to do. Also it is quite a reasonable amount on the longer cruises which we enjoy.
For once in our lives, we have 3 cruises already booked for this year and next year.

Re: Additional OBC
I think it has kind of replaced the "Future Cruise Deposit" system
