Top 5 BEST Things About P&O Arcadia. Arcadia Cruise Ship’s WOW factor!

[@lynnedouglas4065]

Hello Chris enjoyed your review, have sailed on Arcadia twice in the last 2 years 2018 Sydney to Brisbane leg on her 2018 World Cruise, Sydney to Singapore leg of her 2019 World Cruise and late this year will sail from Southampton to Norway for 12 day cruise. Arcadia is my favourite P& O ship.

Sailed on the maiden on Arcadia and have on her 3 times since.Lovely ship and some really nice public rooms.On the maiden we had cabin E 53 which had a better balcony than a lot of the suites,we had a table and chairs plus two sun loungers.Aslo because of the balcony size we held a lovely cabin party which spread onto the balcony.Subsequently we had the same cabin again in the Caribbean which was wonderful

Great video, and those Sydney city views from the ship really are remarkable!

I saw the Arcadia arriving in the river Tyne (Newcastle UK) yesterday. I always thought P&O ships had yellow funnels, so was surprised that she has a blue funnel.

Actually, the Arcadia was originally laid down as a Vista class vessel for Holland America before it was decided it would actually sail as a Cunard ship. Later when P&O became part of Carnival Corporation, it was completed as the P&O Arcadia. We have sailed on the Arcadia several times including world cruises and have become disappointed over the gradual dumbing down. More and louder, unavoidable modern pop 'music' throughout the ship, cretinous infant school level entertainment staff and quizzes and over several cruises, the sewage stench in certain parts of the ship. To be fair, apart from the sewage stench, the other criticisms sadly apply to all P&O ships. After travelling with them for over 85 weeks, we now always go with smaller ships and cruise lines who have resisted dumbing down.

Thanks to you putting this video together I have dodged a bullet. I was looking at the 99 day cruise Jan 2024, Not now!

Very nice review

We sailed on Arcadia in 2016, to the Norwegian Fjords. A quick summary of the good & bad points, as we found them - What we liked: * The central pool with its 'magrodome' * The poolside grill that was open for lunch service * The excellent 'Crow's Nest' bar * Spacious and comfortable cabin (ours was a standard balcony) * Superbly-appointed Main Theatre What we disliked; * The pokey cinema, too small for a ship of that size! You had to book seats in advance due to its tiny capacity. * The indoor Costa coffee bar near the shops - it looked like an afterthought. Having said that, we would certainly sail on her again.

As you said Mekydro the cinema was not good but I also disliked the outward opening doors onto the balconies. Bit difficult at times with the chairs in the way. All the other ships have sensible sliding doors.

Hi Chris I took a cruise on the Arcadia in 1973 called The Cherry Blossom cruise from Sydney to Japan and back. I'm looking for more details about that cruise i.e. the exact date it left and returned. Do you know where I might be able to find the information?

[@andysstuff1]

@@gordonlamont10 Hey Gordon, late reply and I'm not Chris haha but I recommend just searching up "Arcadia prices (then where you want to go)" to find out when

[@GardeningLadybug]

I remember her being announced as Queen Victoria

[@AlVlogs1603]

Before that she was going to be a Holland America ship
