P&O Ventura : 10 Things YOU NEED TO KNOW Before Your Cruise!
Planning a P&O Ventura cruise? These are 10 things you need to know before you sail, including what changed in the Ventura refit, what’s included, how dining works, cabins, entertainment, formal nights and how to find your way around the ship. If you’re cruising on P&O Ventura for the first time, this guide will help you understand what to expect before embarkation and once you’re onboard. I’ve cruised on Ventura myself, including since the refurbishment, and in this video I cover embarkation and disembarkation, what’s included in your cruise fare, Ventura’s sometimes confusing layout, dining options, Freedom and Club Dining, entertainment, cabins and self-service laundrettes, Celebration Nights and P&O’s My Holiday App system. You’ll also find out how Freedom Dining works in Saffron and Cinnamon, how Club Dining works in Bay Tree, whether you need to pre-book Ventura’s theatre shows and whether you need to buy Wi-Fi to use My Holiday.
