Great team
It's an overall feeling with the company that that I'm being looked after and getting the best deal. Kia found me the last balcony cabin on the cruise I dreamt of and inspite of P&O not taking any calls managed to transfer my previous cruise cancellation to this one. Top marks to her and all the team.
