I've done two, I loved it but I've got nothing to compare them to, I went on the Ventura and then the Britannia.

We are on the newest ship they have, it should be nice but never donne a P&O one before, I think they are more casual. We are used to luxury and suites so it might be different on them, not sure
The Britnnia was new when I went in 2016, it was really nice, two nights out of a week you have to get your tux out.....you'll probably have to hire one where as I own plenty.
I went for this style everyone was pointing and staring I think they were impressed...

I dont have anything else to wear, I even go ashore in mine. I have 6 which I take with me and will only eat with the captain.

Right off to the docs,, wish me luck !!!!!
I bet
We’ve done a fair few on P&O Azura - Caribbean, Western Med, Fjords. Did the Caribbean in 2011 and Fjords in 2019 and you could see the ship had gotten a bit tatty over the years. Perhaps it’s had a refresh since 2019? Going on a fly-cruise next Friday. Flying to Tenerife, visiting Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Gibraltar, Malaga and ending in Majorca. Flying home from there. Going with Marella - never been with those before. I think they are more casual than P&O as instead of a formal night, they have a 'dress to impress' night. I've long since grown out of my tux so I’ll just be taking a regular suit for the dress up night.
My first cruise was when I came home from working in South Africa for a year in 1982. Only a small ship - @700 passengers. The Atlas. It later sunk! It was cheaper than a one-way flight. Mind you, we were somewhere in the bowels of the ship and had a couple of pull down bunks! Great fun though and the Captain even let me drive it for a bit while he went off and did something. Honest to god he did but we were in the middle of the Indian Ocean with nothing near us for about a hundred miles.
Hello sailor!
I went to Blackpool last year that was more like being abroad than Spain.
That was not a near-death experience! That was barely an experience!
