    I would recommend booking this through the cruise personaliser on the P&O web site. When you arrive at the cruise terminal, the porters will take your (labelled) luggage from your car and you won't see it again till it arrives at your cabin. Car jockeys will be waiting to valet park your car.

    When you arrive back at the end of the cruise, your car will be parked in a car park that is a short walk from the ship. This is particularly useful as you may well sail from one terminal but arrive back at a different one.

    You may find cheaper park and ride options, but its worth paying the extra for official parking at the port.

    I completely agree with this. You might save £20 or so a week elsewhere but the sheer convenience of the P&O set up is well worth it.

    Given how much you've probably paid for the cruise I'd suggest the parking is the last thing to worry about.

    Thanks for that I thought the official was a bit pricey but sounds like it's a better service though so will go with that, the Cruise is a bargain one though as cruises go :)

    We have sailed from Southampton twice with two different companies both offered free parking at the port. It is nice to drop the bags at the bag drop and wander on board also to pickup the car just as you step off the ship. Have a great time...
