Does a note from Foxy's Mum about his homework count?

If it has either sovereigns head on it with a £50 logo next to it, then yes.

P and O seem to be pricing these 2 ships high for 2025 and offering Iona and Arviva at very low prices to het those ships filled.
I think that is more about economy of scale. The new big ships are cheaper per person to operate resulting in lower prices.

Also there are many loyal passengers for Arcadia and Aurora who are willing to pay the higher prices as many of them claim to not like the new big ships even though they have not sailed on them.

It's not so much the size of the ships, it's the passengers. Bloody chavs and their feral kids !

The trick on Iona and Arvia is to take your own kids, or grandkids as we did. Then you don't notice the others!

That's useful for the crumblies who step out the lift and immediately stop dead.

I do that when exiting the non normal lift, you're suddenly faced with the wrong configuration and it temporarily blindsides you, and in my case I am pushing a wheelchair, so it creates a real traffic jam.

I know. I'm all heart. Though to be fair I'm very nice to people in wheelchairs. It's the other old farts who annoy me.
