There are refreshments available at the Southampton cruise terminal and plenty of seating to make you comfortable.

Are there refreshments available at the Southampton cruise terminal?

Depending on which cruise you choose, you usually have at least one day at sea before you get to the first port. That means you have at least a full day at sea to get used to your ship and have as much fun as you can squeeze in.

How long does it take to get from Southampton to the first destination? 

Southampton welcomes more than four million visitors each year and is easily accessible from major UK cities by rail, road and air. It’s entirely up to you. You might prefer to drive and park at or near the cruise terminal. Parking at the terminal needs to be pre-booked. Alternatively, why not hop on a coach or train and let someone else do the driving while you relax. And if you live further away, you could always fly into Southampton airport and grab a taxi to the terminal.

What are the transfer options to get to Southampton docks?

There are no size limits for liquid toiletries on P&amp;O Cruises holidays from Southampton. This means you can bring all of your favourite full size toiletries. We allow guests to bring 1 litre of wine or champagne, per person, on board.

What is the liquid allowance on a P&O Cruises holiday departing from Southampton? 

Great news! You’ll be pleased to know that Arcadia, Arvia, Aurora, Britannia, Iona and Ventura sail from Southampton to wonderful destinations all over the world. So take your pick of our Southampton cruises and set sail.

Forget luggage restrictions. Unlike flying, there are no stringent rules in place when it comes to luggage allowance when you board your ship in Southampton. Although no item of individual luggage should weigh more than 23kg, you have the freedom to bring as many bags as you can comfortably fit into your cabin.

Once you’ve arrived, you’ll need to take your luggage to the porters just outside the departures entrance. They’ll load your luggage onto a belt, and it will arrive at your cabin within a few hours. Ensure you keep your hand luggage with you, packed with all the essentials you may need for the next few hours.&nbsp; We recommend you pack any essentials in your hand luggage so that you can dive straight into the fun once you're on board.
