We are D+ and would like to be loyal to Royal, but they are shooting themselves in the foot with these prices. Also the insult of sending Enchantment downunder cuts out a lot of itineraries for us. We have booked a few with Princess Cruises and added their new Princess Plus package for $40 per day / per person, which includes Premium Drinks package, Wi-Fi and gratuities. Royal need to lift their game and stop trying to take advantage of us poor locked down Aussies.

Currently on Radiance and can confirm this as well.

 

We've found her nice but uninspiring. Definitely the worst CD we've had (which is a shame as it seems the rest of her staff is working their butts off to add some energy to the cruise.)

We are doing B2B2B cruises on Radiance starting 30 January. (17 days time but who is counting)  Will Cruisin' Susan still be there or she to be replaced for the Circumnavigation cruises? We have 44 nights coming up and I would like an entertaining CD.

Marek Slaby is not back on Radiance yet .He is leaving home today to fly to Sydney.  So his rotation will start on Radiance next sailing from Sydney.

How long are the rotations and who will be in charge of Radiance for the circumnavigation of Australia 9th February 2020? Thanks

We are doing a b2b on Ovation in November 2019. Will Joff Eaton still be the cruise director on these cruises? We have sailed with him before and he is an outstanding talent.

Any other comments? - This was the very end Promenade Cabin which we found to be a great location close to stairs and lifts, away from the noise of the pub and the Promenade Cafe and hig enough to get little or no noise from the promenade below. Only small problem of only warm water in the shower, but overall very happy with the cabin.

Hi Everyone, first post for me as a new member of Cruise Critic. I am a fan of Royal Carribean and become a Diamond Member later this year. From what I have seen so far, it appears that there is only one Melbourne departure in 2018/2019 and I think it may be a one way cruise from Melbourne to Auckland. I know the schedule for the later cruises won't be out for a while, but has anyone heard any differently? Also if Royal Carribean plan things correctly and have more cruises leaving from Melbourne, they will sell like hot cakes.
