Iona, Mediterranean

Never go on p and o again. Overall the ship was good but dining was a nightmare. Booked for 5.30 got seated a 7pm. Still sitting there at 10pm. Christmas dinner was more like a school dinner. The waiters were run off their feet. Absolutely appalling. We never got to a specialty restaurant as always fully booked. Actually they weren’t just short of staff. Entertainment was apparently all booked up before boarding the ship and then in reality people didn’t turn up so theatres were half empty. Should be first come, first served. The app was useless. P and O really need to up their game as a lot of people have said the Christmas cruise was a shambles. It’s so frustrating as people pay good money and look forward to their holiday and are then let down.
