Electricity on P&0 Ventura

[Meg]

Does anybody know if the sockets on Ventura are the 3 pin 240 volt UK type?
Thanks.

Thanks for the answers. I had looked on the P&O website but couldn't find that info.

Miss Meg nothing to do with your question but is a picture of your beautiful Border Collie by any chance? - absolutely stunning

[Meg]

Hi carmalee. No it's not actually my dog's photo but she does look very similar albeit a lot older!!

[carmalee]

then she must be a beaut!

When do you go Miss Meg?

I always go with P&O but on the Oriana or Aurora..........mmm bliss!!

[Meg]

Hi craft, 5th June, 7 nights out of Southampton. Been on Oceania a few years ago but usually go with Princess. Saw a good offer for Ventura last week so decided to go for it!!

[craft1948]

Have a lovely time (I'm sure you will). I usually go on 2 cruises a year, but haven't been for about 18 months now due to one thing or another. Hoping that my cruise buddy fancies either the Panama Canal one or the World one this coming winter.

[Meg]

I will have a great time craft!! Hope you get something booked soon. Only done a partial transit of the Panama Canal, it was very interesting. Been round South America, Buenos Aries to Valparasio. Aukland to Sydney, Southampton to New York on the northern route, stopping at the Faroes, Iceland, Greenland (fantastic scenery). Now keen on the round trip Southampton, no flying, but we do like the warmth of the Caribbean!!
Enjoy your next cruise, I know I will.

hi miss meg - saw your query with regard to ventura - we are going on the oriana on the same journey as you august 27th for seven days - the only thing that worries me is the bay of biscay - have heard it can be very rough = but is that only during the winter. Have been to the Fjords and the Baltic, so far have had very good weather and no rough seas at all. Have a good trip and please report on here how you got on - i shall be watching this space

[Meg]

mahcaeh, thank you for replying. We have passed through the Bay of Biscay on quite a few occasions and never found it a problem. On our South American voyage the weather had a right tantrum, waves were 40 foot high, couldn't get into the Falklands because of it. As that was the main reason we did the trip we were right brassed off. I'm sure you'll enjoy Oriana, when we're back you'll still be looking forward to your cruise, have fun, Wendyxx

lol the first cruise I did was on the Aurora in November and it was force 7, I think, in the Bay of Biscay. The decks were closed for 2 days and we had marvellous service at dinner 'cos half the people were missing.....you should be okay in August though.

thanks for the re-assurance miss meg and craft1948 -am keeping my fingers and toes crossed !!!!
