oosterdam not going to new zealand sounds in 2012

[jackiedanny]

i was looking at itineraries for the 2012 new zealand cruise in sept and nov by the oosterdam on the holland america website and noticed on the 14 day cruise the ship went to hobart in tasmania and bypassed milford, doubtful and dusky sounds. that was a highlight on the 2009 trip i did and i wonder if anyone knows why they no longer go there as my sister was thinking of doing this cruise:confused:

Actually the early 2013 cruises on the Oosterdam do offer both Hobart and Melbourne as well as Fiordland National Park and Milford Sound. These voyages doesn't go rt Sydney, ours go Sydney to Auckland. Perhaps your Sister would be interested in that.
