Creator's Key Takeaways
i recently took a cruise on a brand new mega ship her name is iona and she is huge she's over four times the size of the titanic and holds over 5 000 guests
i did have visions of the ship kind of falling apart i have been on cruise ships of a similar age where you would find buckets in the corridor to collect leaks
i was worried that walking onto ventura wouldn't have the same kind of wow factor as iona and it did have a wow factor in its own way
i'm quite firmly on team less formal nights so in this situation i much prefer the approach that iona took

When cruise lines advertise their cruises it’s most likely that you’ll see the newest and most exciting cruise ships. The majority of cruise ships owned by the major cruise lines are over 10 years old, with many being over 20 years old. I recently took a cruise on a brand new mega cruise ship, her name is Iona and she is massive, she’s over 4x the size of the Titanic and can hold well over 5000 guests. What I wanted to know after disembarking my cruise on Iona was did I enjoy this cruise because of the cruise line or because of the exciting new ship, if I cruised on an older smaller ship from the same cruise line, would I enjoy it as much or would I feel ripped off that the older ship didn’t have everything that the larger ship did. There were actually differences between the two that I had never considered, such as differences in the way the formal night dress codes were enforced, but more about that later. To find out how the ships compare I booked a cruise P&O’s Ventura, she was built back in 2007 and is just over half the size of Iona in terms of gross tonnage. ▶ Weekly Updates: http://EmmaCruises.com/News ▶ Book a Cruise: https://EmmaCruises.com/Book-a-Cruise/ Let’s Connect! ▶ https://EmmaCruises.com/SocialLinks *** ▶ Background World Map: https://emmacruises.com/recommends/wood-world-map/ (Affiliate link) emma@emmacruises.com
