Hi to you frazer at sea lm no cruise vlogger but a part of your comment caught my eye when saying there is a a smokers area on venture for those who smoke my opinion all cruise ships should ban smoking and why only needs 1 cigarette to ignite flame Under ship whether filled by fuel or l iquid natural gas then not only would passengers know bout it so would cruise ship too

On Ventura Dec 5th for 12 nights to the Canaries. Got a Cabin right at the Back overlooking the Wake. My first time on Ventura so thanks for the heads up on what to do and where to go. Cheers.

Hi Fraser thanks for showing us one of the laundrettes very useful perhaps you could inform the few smokers that are around where they can smoke on Ventura. FYI the changing rooms alongside the gym has a bonus feature FREE use of a Sauna and a Steam Room in both gents and ladies not many cruisers know that. Also when eating in main dining rooms (all P&O ships) you can order a cappuccino coffee at no extra charge ( this is not printed on menu, you have to ask they seldom offer). Thanks for your informative videos.

@shirleyjones4857 2 месяца назад

Brilliant video. Just want to say, because I've noticed a few vloggers mentioning it, re: that area on the top deck with the open circle. When we went on Ventura for the first time 2011, that area was known as the Circus area. It used to have bungee ropes, where you could use to do acrobats. There was always an instructor, who demonstrated, and then people could have a go, well harnessed of course 😊. I don't know why, but for some reason they took it all away, and left it open. Hope this little piece of information has helped in knowing why that area is so empty 😊. Thanks for a great video. x

We Love The Grand Class Ships. Interesting To See The The Difference Between Princess And P&O Having Only Sailed With Princess. We Just Got Off The Discovery Princess After Spending 23 Days Onboard We Came Back Missing The Grand Class Ships Due to The Lack Of quiet Areas. Discovery Princess Onboard Music Was Extremely Loud From The Pool Areas To The Piazza. Thanks For Sharing This Ship Tour.

@FraserAtSea Год назад

Oh, I’d love to try one of the Princess ones - I did really enjoy this ship. I did Discovery to Alaska back in July, and didn’t find issues with pool noise, but there’s a lot of noise protection orders up there, so probably not full volume… Hope you had a great cruise noise aside - 23 days on there would be wonderful!

@paulphillips3783 Год назад

Cheers for the great review - P&O cruises are pretty great. Their drinks packages (2023) are puzzlingly expensive though and capped in weird ways. You'll need to read the small print and take a calculator if you get one!

@FraserAtSea Год назад

Hey, thanks for watching, Paul! I do agree that packages can be tricky - always homework to be done, huh?!

@fredflintstone2833 Год назад

Just finishes a cruise on Arvia, and Ventura definitely has a very different vibe going, more subdued, intimate and almost old-fashioned with the dark panelling. I'm looking forward to our cruise to Madeira and The Canary Islands on her next May 😎

@FraserAtSea Год назад

I’m really excited to cruise on that ship class - I was hoping to visit Norway on Iona in July, but have unfortunately postponed that one. Enjoy the Canaries - oddly, I’m messaging you from Madeira right now onboard Costa Diadema!

Great video Fraser - really detailed and great shots! Ventura seemed really quite tired when I went on her in 2019, but she doesn't look too bad - maybe it's just because Arcadia seemed so terrible and boring though! Did you have any issues booking speciality restaurants by any chance?

@FraserAtSea Год назад

Hey! Thanks very much - I did really enjoy Ventura, and booked Azura for December so hoping for a similar experience! I didn’t have any issues with Speciality - nothing like Arcadia, so doesn’t seem like a fleet-wide issue thankfully! I found Sindhu on Ventura to be excellent, although they were very busy and you needed to book as soon as you got on the ship!

It's often said that Ventura and P&O Azura are identical ships but there are lots of differences, large and small. Different designs, different style, different facilities and layout.

@FraserAtSea Год назад

Great call out if you’ve found that to still be the case. My cruise was a few months back, and I don’t recall it being closed, but I do believe the industry’s had some recent staffing issues post pandemic, so could be down to that!

The Glass House is still open as a bar/wine bar, and is well staffed. It just isn't serving any food, which is a shame because it was a great place for a lunchtime snack.
