Default Anyone sailed on Artemis

Just wondering if anyone has sailed on P&O Artemis. Hubby has seen advert in paper for Panama canal cruise next year,he seems very keen on the idea. Not a ship we have heard much about, few reviews seem to be from 2005 anyone sailed on it more recently?

I haven't been on Artemis. However P&O are excellent in my opinion. I would thoroughly recommend the cruise line.

Artemis trivia...

She was launched in 1984 as Royal Princess, stayed with Princess until 2005 when she was refurbished and renamed Artemis...As Royal Princess she was named by Princess Diana, who was her Godmother, the name Artemis keeps that connection as she was also known as the Roman Goddess 'Diana'.

All cabins are outside either window or balcony. Chris will have to put up with a window if he wants to go.

P817 is the cheapest for a single at £1973...not bad really, I guess.

I wouldn't mind doing that one and dropping the plan to do the Black Prince cruise in the summer...

I wonder what Phil could get it at for me
