Creator's Key Takeaways

We are going on a PO Iona for the first time we've ever sailed on PO and this one is going to be a good one.

We haven't had a balcony for 15 years.

It was so simple. I went up to the chicken place, just asked for chicken straight away onto a um train, gave it to me, ordered a drink at the table.

Our first impressions of PNO were that we were going to have a brilliant time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Make sure you have your passport and boarding pass out of your luggage before dropping bags.
โœ“If you need luggage labels or a boarding pass, you can get them near the departure gates.
โœ“Scan your card for waiter service; you can't use one person's card for the table.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Here is part one of our recent P&O cruise to the Norwegian Fjords on IONA. This features our full embarkation, first views of our balcony cabin, lunch at Quays, The Retreat, dinner at Sindhu, a trip to the theatre to see 'Digital' and a final nightcap at 'The Clubhouse'. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy. (please see first comment for details of the 'auto dubbing' problems and apology for those of you that saw the unintended A.I version. We do not know why the video went public at 1am in the morning when it was due to go out at 9am to channel members only.). Hopefully we have fixed the problems and you can now enjoy the video as intended without the awful AI dubbing. You tube have introduced a new feature which caused the issue as the default setting is for it to be enabled. Thanks to all those that commented and drew our attention to this issue. We would never chose to use AI voices on our videos. Instagram.
