The food on the Azura is excellent. However passenger space inside is not good in bad weather. All the readers take up seats meant for those taking part in program event's. Passengers also hold on to empty coffee mugs rather than let other passengers sit down with hot meals. The lifts take 18 (2 or more are always closed down) passengers or one motorised scooter and 3 passengers trying to get down for evening meals by lift is almost impossible, the alarm go's off. These people know who they are and need to get to the dinning rooms half an hour before able bodied passengers.You can not walk all around the promenade deck 7 it's not possible to get to the bow of the ship. The ship was full of passengers waiting for God, with their scooters, wheelchairs, and zimmer frames. The theatre only holds 800 seats, Sometimes not always they will show the same show 3 times in one night. 800 X 3 = I'll let you do the maths by how much the ship holds. £3,500.00 + staff. She has very little stern space for tables and sun loungers, also the children's paddling pool is not well fenced in, a two year old could quite easily climb and fall to their death. I have been so concerned about this that I have taken it further and I have no children. I am appalled at the charges for the spar, It was £180.00 single, in their own words a retreat that truly sums it up you do need a retreat on this ship as they omit by charging £180.00 Also the amount of surcharge restaurants have increased, this with paying for the spar club I feel is P&O's way of having a two class ship like Cunard.The stern suites all eat breakfast and lunch at no extra charge in restaurant seventeen on deck seventeen. Segregation is not for us. Neither do we want to cruise on a block of flats, on an up note Neil the cruise director and his staff are very good.
