Hi want to do a long Caribbean Cruise early in 2024, over 30 nights or more with a balcony. Don’t want to fly so any UK Ports. We had originally been thinking of a P&O one on Ventura but can’t get a balcony cabin.

Any recommendations would really help

Thanks

When in 2024 were you looking as Ventura has balcony’s for the January trip showing on P&O website and iglu.

I’d use iglu to find a cruise that fits the bill then look to see if you book direct or with them.

The one that goes on about the 3rd or 4th of Jan. neither had any balcony ones.

The one that goes on Feb 11th but does some of the USA had Balconies but not quite what we wanted.

We were on a cruise late last year and was going to book then but just wasn’t sure about retirement

Will have another look and make sure I was looking at the right dates etc

Thanks

Looks like you were right. Showing Balcony but not Deluxe but better than not going

Will check iglu.

Thanks

Plenty of balcony cabins on Venture so wouldn’t be against waitlisting for one of them and expecting one to be available.

If you need a hand with that just drop me an email.

Failing that, wait til full payment date and usually a few come up then that cancel.
