YouTube Video Description

With over 5,000 passengers onboard P&O Iona, is a sea day actually enjoyable…. or does it just feel too busy? (Vlog 7). Is a sea day on P&O Iona just too busy? Today is our final sea day onboard P&O Cruises Iona during our P&O Iona Norwegian Fjords cruise, and with over 5,000 passengers onboard, we wanted to see what it actually feels like. Sea days on a ship the size of P&O Iona can go either way - either there’s loads to do, or it can start to feel a bit crowded. So in this vlog, we take you around the P&O Iona cruise ship to see what the atmosphere is really like on a full sea day, and whether it ever feels too busy to properly enjoy. We spend the day exploring different areas of P&O Cruises Iona, from the P&O Iona dining venues to the bars and public spaces, to see how the ship handles having so many guests onboard at once. As our P&O Cruises Norwegian Fjords cruise comes towards the end, this is a good chance to reflect on what it’s really like spending a full day at sea on one of the largest ships in the P&O Cruises fleet. If you’re planning a P&O Iona cruise, researching P&O Iona inside cabins, or wondering whether a sea day on the P&O Iona cruise ship might feel too crowded, this vlog gives you a realistic look at what to expect.
