Q: Am going on Ventura 26th Feb, have noticed Catalina Island has been deleted from the Itinerary?? WE have not been informed of this. Does anybody know why this would be the case and whether we are likely to visit another island in it's place?? We are very disappointed. Thanks 9 answers

Having just come back from a cruise on Oceana last month (jan 2010) i can tell you that instead of Catalina island we went to Martinique.

We went on Ventura in November 09 and Catalina Island was substitute by Grenada which we preferred having been to Catalina Island on previous occassions. Anyway, it eliminated having to tender which, with 3000 passengers, would have been a nightmare.

I don't think so they will slot in another island in and change certain days just like ours , good luck

Hi guys We are on cruise noo4 which sails this Saturday . Catalina island as been dropped and Antigua added , from what I can gather from crew on board is that P&O damaged a coal reef as she is so big , certain persons are wanting compensation from P&O , and P&O ain't paying alledgedly , hope this helps you , have a great cruise

It was because Ventura ran aground on a sandbank some time ago. Recent cruises have been rescheduled and another island added. Probably either Antigua or Grenada. Changes to dates may occur....Brian
