  1. I have recently prepaid mine on my upcoming cruise, the exchange rate was closer to $0.80 than the current exchange rate of $0.67.
  2. https://www.boatingworld.com/question-answer/why-do-new-cruise-ships-have-straight-bows/ But do they still have the bulbous knob at the bottom of it?
  3. Interesting, sounds like people should be very careful when providing information.

  5. Kempsey. North of Sydney about 5 hrs, A tad too far away, pick one up in Sydney.
  6. Check NCL, HAL and Azamara they have a few visits to SA. Easy to check with cruise timetables.
  7. I would say not. On our recent Noordam cruise to NZ they were not included in the fare, we paid them separately. You can prepay these if you wish by going into your cruise manager.
  8. Lol, our addiction is getting dangerous, it seems control has been lost. Currently 12 cruises booked, but we have more than just cruises planned.
  9. We use an ATM in a bank if we need some cash for some countries like the US, Canada, UK or Europe. For developing countries we tend to not worry about cash or most likely they take another currency like USD, Euro or AUD. For PNG, we got some Kina in Alatou from the ATM by the supermarket and bank which was our first stop.
  10. For me the cruise is itinerary pricing and timing, the cruiseline and ship are secondary considerations . For us, if there is a pick between several lines due to having the same itinerary and similar pricing and timings, Princess is a good line to use and the Majestic is a nice ship, we have some status that may help sway us that way.
  11. Good work, it could be the currency conversion or perhaps a discount is being applied.
  12. Definitely lock it in. As Julie, and Geoff will be getting debarking from the Diamond, perhaps a catch up, coffee and/ or brunch, at City Extra circular quay, may work.
  13. Perhaps a brunch at City Extra, Julie, as well as Geoff will be getting off the Diamond and we will be getting on.
  14. Lyle, I am thinking we meet at Circular Quay around 11am on the 20th, take the ferry and cruise to Manly, mini harbour cruise, have some lunch there, return back in the arvo. Others could come along as well if they want.
  15. I am so sorry that we won't be here for your stay in Canberra, was looking forward to it. Sydney will just have to suffice.
