Aus Traveller Posted January 20, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2012 We were seriously tempted by this one but had to decide against it. There could be someone else who can do it. Obviously I can't mention TA's names but any agency would be able to do it. Leave Bris-Syd-Melb 3rd March, fly to Auckland, one night in a hotel. 39 nights on Oriana calling at Bora Bora, Papeete, Hawaii, San Francisco, ports in Mexico, Panama Canal, ports in Venezuela & Caribbean, ending in Southampton. Two nights in hotel in London and flight back home. All inclusive price including airfare for an inside cabin from $3999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royalty X Posted January 20, 2012 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2012 That's a great deal! *sigh* If only we had some cash laying around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted January 20, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Oh, if only..........................:rolleyes: but we will be just back from our NZ cruise. We seriously considered it until I saw that we would be home only 36 hours from a cruise when we would have to leave for Auckland, and (if we booked this one) we would be home only 36 hours before our next cruise.

Yeah... 36 hours is too long a gap!!! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted January 20, 2012 Author #6 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Yeah... 36 hours is too long a gap!!! :) :) :) 36 hours twice was too short for us. I need a few days to 'get my feet back on the ground' after any overseas trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Kruzer Posted January 21, 2012 #8 Share Posted January 21, 2012 anjo Hi there, Really keen on this one!! Live in N.Z are you able to steer us to the right T.A.? Know u can't name them. $3999 Aud all inclusive seems incredible value!!!! Thanks Anjo Hi anjo. I know we are not allowed to mention TA's on this site, however for the Oriana deal, I think you will find that all TA's should have it. Just take a note of the deal and the dates , and go to any TA, preferably one that specialises in cruising and knows what they are doing , and just ask if they have that deal as well , and if not can they match it..... Thats what we do , and they usually can match it and sometimes even beat it. If they start mucking around, just get up and thank them and go somewhere else.. Friends just booked a cruise this week after they saw a deal in the Sunday Times. The first TA fluffed around and did not really know what to do. .....so they left it..went to another and were booked in 5 minutes and had everything they wanted.

aussiedisneyfan Posted January 21, 2012 #10 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I found the website. It is an amazing deal. I wish we could take it up. Interested that outside it $5339. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted January 21, 2012 Author #11 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Hi David, thanks for your prompt response. This couldn't be the right price surely??!! I keep rereading it and thinking it must be a miss type!! Anjo. It is not a mis-type:D just amazing value. I hope you can do it and have a fantastic time. A friend of ours has been watching the bookings on this cruise for a while and he remarked that the Aust-UK leg was not selling well. Maybe the fact that there are a lot of sea days and not lots of ports has deterred some people, but at this price you can't go wrong. If you book it, maybe it would be worth adding a few more days in London before coming home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anjo Posted January 22, 2012 #14 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hi Aus Traveller, tried for a quote from an Aus T.A they replied Ak/Southhampton Sector was showing full and closed for Waitlisting on P&O Worldwide Reservation System!!!! Where to now?? She said grab it if I could!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted January 22, 2012 Author #15 Share Posted January 22, 2012 This could have sold out in the couple of days it has been available. At that price I'm not surprised if it has. I think it is likely that the TA you spoke to has the latest information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pobman Posted January 22, 2012 #17 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Just searching Google for "oriana $5339 $3999" instantly brought up the site... Crazy deal for anybody who got it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted January 22, 2012 #18 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Yes, some great promotional deals on these P&O UK WC sectors. Just like we got on Arcadia, Sydney - Southampton, 49 days via Asia/Africa, outside cabin with £250 obc, $5300 each. Most of the good cruise agents would have these promotional deals, but they sell out very quickly. Don't muck about if you want to go on one. I had to deposit within 24 hours when offered our one by the cruise agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I should not look ... the cabin grade we got sold out a while back so I am safe now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
