Swap the Rain for Rum Punch – Why a 14-Night Caribbean Cruise Costs Less Than Staying at Home

Let’s be honest – £60 a day doesn’t go far in the UK right now.
A couple of pints and a takeaway? Gone.
A family day out? Probably double.
Even just heating the house for a week in autumn… well, you know the story.

But what if I told you that for less than £60 a day, you could spend two whole weeks sailing from Southampton to the Caribbean, stopping at tropical islands, sipping cocktails by the pool, and watching West End-style shows every evening – with your accommodation, food, and flights included?

That’s exactly what’s on offer with P&O Cruises’ 14-night Caribbean Transatlantic on Arvia, departing 24th October 2025 from just £899pp.
