Being Medically Disembarked 🚨 P&O Cruise ARVIA | Cruise Holiday Disaster 2023

#pocruises #cruisevlog #medicalemergency
Our Medical Disembarkation EXPERIENCE, our 5 year old boy being taken off in an unscheduled port late in the evening.
Our Cruise Holiday Disaster | Being Medically Disembarked from P&O Cruises Arvia #cruisevlog
This cruise was kindly gifted to us by P&O Cruises as I have been an Arvia Insider since August 2022, helping P&O Cruises bring their brand new ship Arvia to life. AD | GIFTED
This is not how we intended to end our cruise, it was the scariest experience of my life, but we're so grateful to Arvia's medical team, captain and crew for all they did for us.

    I just noticed that George from the Hotel team helped you out, and she was incredibly helpful to me as well. I contracted covid onboard two days before the end of the cruise and I was told that automatically meant I would be last to disembark, with no exceptions. Trouble was that I'm a sole carer back home for someone with complex needs and all of my arrangements for cover were based on me leaving the ship early and couldn't be changed. George managed to cut through all of the rules and regs and got me disembarked early via the crew gangway which saved the day - she's a real asset to P&O.

    Oh George is wonderful isn’t she. She arranged for 2 members of kids club to come down with toys for the baby to play with, they also stayed with him so we could be with Henry while Jack had lunch and napped. I’m so glad you had a great experience with her too x

    About 15 years ago on my first cruise I had seasickness and ended up in the infirmary and I was treated fantastically, the infusions, injections and then tablets worked amazingly, it took me 12 months to go back on a ship but now with a prescription of the same tablets the ship gave me we have at least 1 cruise a year (3 this year). Then I had a different medical emergency 4 years ago on a P&O ship whilst on our way back to Southampton, we docked at 6am and they had me in the Hospital within an hour, absolutely excellent service. I feel comfortable knowing that if any of us were unwell we are well cared for. I’m sorry you had a medical emergency but I’m sure you could not have had better care. For everyone else, please don’t moan when the crew are practicing their emergency drills and it causes a minor inconvenience , because these emergencies are practiced so often everything runs like clockwork when the real emergencies occur. Thankyou for sharing, be blessed xx
