Grand Princess Gastro And Covid Outbreak

The private school boys of the North Shore in Sydney tip their straw hats to drivers as they cross the pedestrian crossing. -
Grand Princess Gastro And Covid Outbreak
aussielozzie18 replied to Zanny's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
Had to share this quote from a fiction book that I was reading earlier this month on the Majestic Princess ”Sweetheart, I like to take holidays on cruise ships. Wait til you’ve been around four hundred people with gastro who are still trying to get free drinks, then talk to me about ridiculous” -
Even with a balcony, we spent a lot of time in the adults only Serenity deck. The food in the MDR was always very nice & the service quick. We didn’t go with traditional seating but we found it very easy to book a table at various times that suited us via the Carnival App. Fahrenheit 55 is their specialty dining venue and the service there was superb. Enjoy your cruise. It’s nice to try different cruise lines.

Luminosa is deemed inferior to Splendor by some families because it doesn’t have water slides. Given the majority of cruises are to the South Pacific and Moreton Bay - I can understand those families frustration. However, it has a much nicer decor, better ship layout and just as friendly crew and entertainment staff. Our side by side balconies were great. Have another cruise on Luminosa booked. Carnival are fun ships and that’s what they offer.

The price for the half day bushwalk that I posted photos of just recently on Princess was $299pp. Thankfully the cruise came with promo OBC so that offset most of the cost. Amedee Island in Noumea and snorkelling day excursion on the Great Barrier Reef are around $250pp or more . Can understand your disbelief that cruisers are paying such inflated prices but they are standard prices for many day excursions here. No doubt when RCL finally open the resort in the South Pacific, the price will be high.

Hi. Have a family member who will be cruising with friends on the Majestic Princess on 20 November from Sydney. They want to watch the MotoGP. Is there Foxtel in the room cabin or somewhere on the ship where they can watch the MotoGP? Thanks.

Manly and Bondi beach in Sydney
aussielozzie18 replied to cruiselvr04's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
Sun umbrellas are definitely permitted and encouraged at all Sydney beaches. Long sleeve rashies (rash shirt for sun protection) worn at the beach and in the water are popular here as are hats & sunscreen applied every 2hrs. -
The QR code just appeared in the App a week before embarking . No health requirements to complete - for a domestic cruise at least.

Ok. Noted. The sensor light In wardrobe “room” next to the bathroom is the one that keeps me awake - I am used to going to the bathroom in the middle of the night in darkness, so I can fall straight back to sleep but that sensor light is so bright - I end up being wide wake. I guess that one is needed for access to the life jackets?

Photo on the last morning of the cruise finally standing in the middle of one of those glass panels - note the buckles that set off the alarms when boarding the ship 🙄 and it was when I was looking down that I realised self disembarking had commenced 😁 as I could see cruisers walking off with their luggage

Where can I leave a review of the Princess Shore tour that I did in Eden? - Light to Light Walk. I have filled out the post survey review that was emailed out & the tour company is not listed on the Princess blurb so no use putting a review on Trip Advisor. I would like to leave a review for future Princess cruisers who are considering booking this tour. thanks
