YouTube Video Description↓

It's the finale of this 3 part P&O Arvia Caribbean cruise experience! Make sure you have caught the first 2 parts before watching, unless you're just here for the Maleth section, of course! In this vlog we start off with a sea day as we head from St Maarten to Antigua, enjoying a relaxing day in the sun, swimming and eating at a range of restaurants, including dinner at Green & Co. speciality plant-based restaurant. The next day we arrive into Antigua for our last day - or at least so we thought... I show you the whole check-out process for a fly-cruise, what happens to your luggage when bonded, and of course we make the most of Antigua after an important announcement from the Captain about our return flights to the UK with Maleth Aero. I show you how to get to Dickenson Bay and where to find an awesome rum punch! On our return to Arvia, it's quite literally all down hill on a stressful, upsetting and exhausting 16 hour delay where we are treated very poorly and we experience unbelievable delay after delay after delay. Will will make it back to the UK in time to see in New Year? Hold on to your hats, here we go!
