your like a couple of teenagers again 🤣. what a fun holiday... on an aside.. without glasses you can see how pretty Anna's eyes are... have a wonderful trip.
Worked on P& O cruise liners in the 80s, best years of my life, worked on Canberra meddy cruising 3 world cruises, done the fjords a few times, then went to Aussie to work on Oriana cruising around the Islands such as Fiji and New Zealand and many more. Wish I could go back to that time.
That was hilarious and an eye opener. Hope you continued to enjoy the experience, it doesn't feel very luxury more a Warners on sea perhaps? But the buffet looks to have kept you happy. I know that feeling when you are awake at a different hour to normal, very naughty and exciting, Midnight feasts etc!
As someone that used to work for a cruise line and been on quite a few as a paseenger. Welcome to the cruise life you have the cruising itch now hopefully. :D. May this be the start of many more cruises to come.
Hello guy, well, thanks for the vlog, I've wanted to do a cruise. However, the whole booking thing, with different packages, kind of confused me, so not yet bothered. Is it all fairly easy to understand, i.e., drinks, food, what you pay for and what isn't it deal? Anyway, I'm watching 8 days after you posted, so you will be home now. I look forward to watching more. Thank you again both. Xx
The cruise looks fantastic break I might have to try a short cruise ourselves as we have never been on one. Love your videos from Emma and Grier in Adelaide Australia.
Travel sickness comes from the movement not in tandem with what you see (no pun intended). If you feel sick get outside and watch the movement of the boat in the water and that should help!
Amazing video as usual, I really enjoy seeing both you and Anna having a good time because you both definitely deserve it. Also .. new Lego giraffe 😮 😮
The reason for fewer plugs in the cabin was due to the ships' age. She was laid down in 2006, launched in 2007 and christened in 2008. While she has had refits. Refitting the cabins in trickier with the way ships are made. The cabins are put into the ship ready made. Slipped in like boxes. Think tetris. However she holds up well for her age😊
Me and my sister were on Ventura, in a cabin with an obstructed view (but that didn't really bother me) but I could tell from the seamless build of the bathroom that the whole thing looked like one massive single piece of plastic!
We finished out first cruise yesterday. It was on the Ventura and went from Southampton to Spain and Portugal. We had a balcony room on deck 15. I liked the ships, the room and all the amenities. The cruise was for 10 days, and I was ill with seasickness for about five of them. Although I liked the cruise overall, being ill on holiday isn't something to look forward to. In future, we will fly to the med and start and finish our cruise there.
great vid. I still find it annoying how old fashion they are with dress codes. Completely not with the times. It's 2024 where trainers are a huge part of smart casual. I know they say cruises is for all ages but thee mid/young generation would get put off for such old fashion dress codes.
Thanks for the great video guy's. question: how does the specialty dining work, as when i book a table its £10 each yet the food on the menu is super cheap like £4 for a steak? Im confused.
Have you looked at getting portable chapters machines? We took one on a recent Mediterranean cruise and it was fantastic. Powered by an oversized powerbank. Also great on long distance planes.
If you did like this cruise you definitely need to do a cruise to the Norwegian fjords next honestly you will love it. One of the best ways to see norway and not much longer than this cruise you were on
I couldn't go on a cruise. I got put off a few years ago when my mums friend went on one with her son and caught norovirus and they were ill for 3 days straight and missed most of their holiday. I hope you stay well, bad illness on cruises is a common thing 😣
@arc24CH Why because I don't want to go on cruise ships after hearing about bad experiences? I also don't like cruises in general. Old ocean liners were far more beautiful. I am watching because I like Kevs channel
Bad illness on cruises being common depends on the time of year tbh, ive been on 8 i think all during summer and avoided illness all the time, id imagine during flu season its different
When we were on Ventura, my sister and I tried the jacuzzi (loved it!) and the sauna and steam room, but I found the pool I tried to be far too chilly!
I've been on the P&O Ventura this last week, was infinitely more fun and exciting than I thought it would be! It's great to have so many things to do, eat and drink and be entertained on a large moving object that takes you to city to city every morning!
Thanks for this vlog, we are thinking of going on a cruise, as I have mobility issues like you, but I to get awfull sea sick, so I was watching waiting to see you say ohh I don’t feel so well, glad you was okay as we now know I will probably be okay.
If you guys end up loving cruising, be sure to ask what deck is the best to help with sea sickness,…. I think it’s the lower decks that are better. Just an FYI for future.

Hi , we are going on our first ever cruise in April with p and o so this is all new to us , can you tell us please if you had to have any paperwork with your cpap machines I.e doctors letter as my wife has just been put onto one as of yesterday . I do know that we have to take an extension lead but unsure of anything else . Thanks
Because we didn't know what was available. We filled in the assistance forms honestly before the cruise, and they moved us to an accessible room but didn't offer anything else.
