Much prefer Советское Шампанское. A mere fraction of the price.

Ours went down a treat at the Gibraltar sail away two bottles between four and the free glass one as well mind we had a few before
we started on the Champagne so that probably helped

Can I ask you then DQ,why have you not cruised with p & o since 2010?Dancing Queen wrote:P&O told me I was special today when they sent me an e-mail promoting 2015 World Cruises![]()
Actually I would have been more impressed if they had asked why I haven't cruised with them since 2010

Re: SO YOU THINK YOU ARE SPECIAL....
You certainly can Kaziebelle, we always used to book the day cruises went on sale, we were booked on Aurora for Xmas 2010 and once final balances were paid this cruise was reduced by 50% ( this was prior to Getaway fares )Kaziebelle wrote:Can I ask you then DQ,why have you not cruised with p & o since 2010?Dancing Queen wrote:P&O told me I was special today when they sent me an e-mail promoting 2015 World Cruises![]()

I appreciate you pay your money and take your chance but to pay £14k for a cruise and it is then reduced to £7k is not funny, in fact it is the cost of another cruise, I spoke to P&O and basically they said tough
Prior to P&O we cruised mainly with Cunard ( in the 90's ) so we have now returned to Cunard after a 10 year break from them and tbh I wonder why we ever left them, it would take an awful lot to tempt me back to P&O now but never say never

Didn't you say on another thread that you have ordered flowers and champagne for your parents....better not let them know that you think Champagne is for posers and you think it tastes awful...Kaziebelle wrote:My thoughts entirely RayRay Scully wrote:Dark Knight wrote:we got one of them last cruise and my tier is lower than a snakes a*se

Re: SO YOU THINK YOU ARE SPECIAL....
To my mind DQ you've done the right thing. If you don't like what one company does, don't bleat take your money elsewhere. My only query would be, given the reason you walked, why Cunard?Dancing Queen wrote:You certainly can Kaziebelle, we always used to book the day cruises went on sale, we were booked on Aurora for Xmas 2010 and once final balances were paid this cruise was reduced by 50% ( this was prior to Getaway fares )Kaziebelle wrote:Can I ask you then DQ,why have you not cruised with p & o since 2010?Dancing Queen wrote:P&O told me I was special today when they sent me an e-mail promoting 2015 World Cruises![]()

I know you've been with them before but they have operated Vantage and Getaway in exactly the same way as P&O. Their reservations people are, if not exactly the same people, probably seated in the same room armed with the same script as P&O. The likelihood is you'll get the same treatment.

Re: SO YOU THINK YOU ARE SPECIAL....
Very true Mervyn and why Cunard when they all come under the same umbrella the simple answer is I prefer to sail out of Southampton, there is choice in the summer months but not so much in winter.
My experience was prior to Getaway fares being introduced but once they were I certainly wasn't go to get caught out again ( for such a huge amount ) so I have booked Getaway since, I choose my grade very carefully in the knowledge that should I get the grade I've booked I will be happy with the cabin position and the same applies should I be upgraded, it has worked out pretty well and I've had some excellent upgrades.
Of course it doesn't always work in your favour, I was tracking a cruise for May this year and missed out by waiting too long
but there will always be a ship going somewhere with empty cabins even if it means getting on a plane to join it.

But after what has gone on in recent weeks, I was just a little bit wary and odd things jump out at me.

There must surely be something in the forum T&Cs to stop multiple people using one login and thus causing great confuzzlement to innocent bystanders.....
