The best P&O cruise we ever did was on the Victoria. 900 passengers. From New Orleans to Barbados. We have never beaten it. No theatre, the show just happened in the bar. Sheer class- mind you a different target market. S

My favourite ship is Aurora, and still is today, even though it is P&O's smallest cruise ship today. People said it was far too big back then. In 2000, it's first cruise was a world cruise. It left Southampton and spent all night going round the Isle of Wight before limping back to port to fix an engine fault before cancelling the world cruise.Then there was the old Armani's. We boarded at Southampton where we we're told our departure would be delayed due to an engine problem. We did not sail until 5.30 am the next morning following the crew changing the clutch. They then proudly displayed it in the reception area for all to see. This does not create confidence when departing on a one stop Atlantic crossing.Cont'd'

Shame about losing the older ships. The Oriana was my favorite, old and elegant with real wood decking. Not quite the money spinner of the big ships these days (which I also really like for different reasons).

Article on cruise industry news saying that 23 ships have been taken out of service since pandemic. These are the older inefficient ships - the average age of ships leaving the fleet was approximately 25 years old, with an average size of approximately 1,661 berths.

These are being replaced by the larger more efficient ships.

Not certain, but i think almost all ccl's ships are back in service now. Mostly reports of all being full, and sailing at 0ver 100% capacity (100% means all cabins full, the extra comes from when kids are in 2 berth cabins making 4 in all, sometimes extra beds come down from the ceiling!). My last cruise was at 100%.

It's only a matter of time. They rake in mega amounts of cash when sailing full. I think Princess are the latest to have self-certification that you're covid free instead of shelling out 70 dollars for an observed test.

Could someone else do a bofp estimate of profits from a fully booked cruise please?

Bounced off the 20 day MA.

Its second-quarter occupancy of 65% compared with more than 107% in 2019, a level the company does not expect to reach till the second quarter next year.

In contrast, rival Royal Caribbean Group forecast triple-digit occupancy by the end of this year and Carnival Cruise Line expects to approach 110% during its current quarter.

Will be happy with £7.60 ish

[onehanded] 09/8/2022 16:16

14% shorts will be closing soon, big spike coming, will test £8.

[mostro] 09/8/2022 16:04

Says me, immediately turning RED!!

[jan-mar] 09/8/2022 16:03

Norwegian Lines missed their target in today's results, so they've marked cruise lines down

[mostro] 09/8/2022 16:03

First time in CCL for ages, got some at £6.89,, seems a bargain for the 10% retrace ahead over next few days!! That will do me just fine..

[sardine2] 09/8/2022 15:53

Firstly, I don't like cats.......................Secondly, I wondered when a chartist would show up..........Yes, I practically agree. But, I would be looking at least £9.75 before taking a bite. Anything earlier is in my opinion is a gamble..

[tradejunkie2] 09/8/2022 15:31

Simple kitty cats, it's failed to break a lower trend and retracing back. Until we hit 750p or above and stay above it remain in this downtrend.

Junkie out.

[sardine2] 09/8/2022 15:27

It's not wider market conditions. I was surprised to see the US follow the UK this afternoon as there was no sign of it this morning.

[milliecusto] 09/8/2022 14:59

Why the big drop, or is it wider market conditions

[tradejunkie2] 09/8/2022 13:00

750p target failed.

[elsssworth] 09/8/2022 07:57

Plenty chances..double bottom already played out..expecting this back above that £20 mark

[jan-mar] 08/8/2022 15:21

What chances of my 15 pounds before year end

[tradejunkie2] 08/8/2022 15:19

OK kitty cats, if we see 800p+ then my target is 1150-1200p.

[covid 19 deal] 08/8/2022 13:34

[covid 19 deal] 08/8/2022 13:32
