I'm on a trans Pacific cruise that starts in Sydney but we board in Auckland. Does that mean OBC will be in AUD? We end in San Francisco.

Best Wishes to you both! 💌

We use a cruise travel agent & they are great handling price adjustments. Sometimes they are on the phone with Celebrity for an hour plus! Of course, as mentioned by keesar you have to watch what will happen to your perks.

Thanks for the pictures of the old Sun Princess! We sailed her in 2002 to Alaska, our first cruise! Denise & Sam

Yeah, so many bartenders use that terrible sour mix instead some fresh lime juice!

That's great, but sometimes I have some Absolut in that Pelligrino! Also, I would sell my soul for a good margarita. Hopefully, I'll find that on the Edge?

Ok great, we usually upgrade but going on 11 day port intensive cruise, so no day drinking😁 I can't see paying over $400 for the 2 of us, so will pay the difference at night for a good scotch for DH & a Pelligrino for me!

So it's not something that you can pay the difference between classic & premium?

We did full transit both ways on Princess. Also decided we liked FLL to LAX best. Will do again in a heartbeat!

Thank you both so much! Can't wait for my first trip to Australia! All of the Australians I've met over many cruises are super nice, just like you guys!

Going on my first cruise out of Australia next March, if you upgrade to premium is it more than $20 per person? Thanks!

Thanks for the info but I guess my question wasn't clear. I'm going to enter NZ twice once as a cruise passenger on 3/16/2024 & then at the airport in Auckland 4/3/24. Can I just use the first Visa for the second trip?

So my husband & I will be taking a round trip cruise from Sydney to New Zealand. After 10 days in Australia we will fly back to Auckland to catch a South Pacific cruise. What kind of NZ visa will we need? Thanks for your help.

Thanks again, you guys are so helpful! Can't wait to go to Australia!

Yes, probably can, spending 4 days in Auckland & then a cruise. Great, will look into this! thanks for your help!

No, just local, I'd like to be able to make dinner reservations, confirm tours, emergency etc.

Hi Our mobile phone carrier here in the US does not have an international plan. We are planning to be in Australia for 2 weeks & then a couple of cruises. I'd like to buy a cheap phone loaded with a bunch of minutes to use while in Australia & possibly cruise stops in NZ. We will be in Sydney for 4 days staying in the Rocks area. Can someone recommend a place to buy a mobile phone that can be loaded with minutes? Many thanks!

Our first cruise after becoming Platinum was a 15-day Panama Canal cruise. We really liked the lounge; we felt we had made it!🤣 Now we go a few nights even though we have the drink package & go to any bar, but it's a nostalgic part of our cruise!

Ok thanks, that's good to know. I wasn't aware of that.

Ok thanks I see it's far, no idea how much a taxi would cost? We are overnight in Cabo so wanted to do something different, will look into closer places.

Will it be easy to get a uber? We usually sail out of Florida, haven't been to LAX since the days before uber!

Let us know when you return from Discovery. We board in December!

What about from the ship in San Pedro to LAX.? Our ship gets in on a Saturday around 6am, we'll be off the ship by 8, uber or cab?

What about the Hilton in Cabo? I was told that they have day passes. I emailed the manager but have not heard back.

Where is the Platinum/Elite lounge held on the Discovery?
