Sounds like I'll spot her on the flight down tomorrow night 🙂 Boarding Wednesday!

The joys of being young, $29 for myself...

Quite likely you won't go there as it is a tender port and likely will not get ashore.

Moreton island is protected by a bay, might be a bit rough to get into the bay but once there the island itself will protect the tenders.

Not sure who is doing their market research but the reason the 18 - 40 age market are under represented (in my humble opinion) is because they HAVE NO MONEY!! Ask any of us parents 😉😂🤣

Not exactly true... There are plenty (myself included) making over 80 grand a year, with minimal expenses.

The thing to remember about my generation, there are a hell of a lot more university educated people who are chasing the $$. Company loyalty is dead if they refuse to pay what we are worth. Older generations would stick with one company for 30 years... This generation will change jobs every 2-3 to chase a pay rise and more money.

Definitely a hard sell at ~2500pp for a 5 night interior, considering the 11 night I'm hopping on with Carnival Spirit next month cost me $1100pp for a balcony.

I'm definitely interested (currently a single dude in my late 20s) but the price is offputting for a 5 night cruise. If I didn't have to deal with travel to/from the Gold Coast, it may be a little more justifiable... I do like that the target market is 18-40, not 60+ like most of the 18+ cruise lines.

Just booked this one, looking forward to getting back on the Spirit.

I booked a balc with a mate on Friday, should be a good one! 🙂

Get in fast with this one, last day of the 72 hour sale. Price dropped by $500pp for March 27 on the Spirit.

Amadee was stupid expensive, but well worth it. The sea snakes and turtles offered a unique snorkelling experience compared to the rest of the island. Snakes freaked the ex out, but they are harmless 🙂

Only gripe is how remote it was, took quite a while to get to/from which of course eats into your day.
