I just booked my 50th birthday present to myself, a repositioning cruise from LA to Sydney on the LEGEND! I have never done a long repositioning cruise before so any info or advise from anyone who has would be more than welcome. :D

I am sorry I cannot give you any advise for this, but I have a question so, where do you find the rates for repositioning cruises?

I got the general rates on the Carnival web site and then called my PVP and he figured out the best discounts I could get and the final rate.

My husband & I did the repositioning cruise of the Spirit from LA to Australia. They'll do an Equator crossing party & everyone on board will become an official Shellback. You'll be losing a day on the way to Australia when you pass the International Date Line, then you'll gain the day back when you travel back to the U.S. We're scuba divers & the three Tahitian islands were spectacular, we especially liked Bora Bora. Fiji had good diving & so did Australia, but we found everything in Australia to be very expensive. There are lots & lots of sea days, so plenty of time for relaxation & getting to know your neighbors. Join the Roll Call, ours had some good parties & activities on board. Enjoy your cruise & your birthday, I wish we could go again!

Awesome - what an great b-day gift! Way too many days at sea for me though. :p Fiji is awesome by the way. :)

 

m also interested in this cruise. I see the rate for re-position Tampa to LA but not LA to Australia. Any help? Would love to see if possible to go. Thanks

 

If you go to Carnival.com, just search for a cruise and use only August 2014 and the Legend as your search criteria. Pulls up 2 in Tampa, then the 2 repositioning ones.

I couldn't possibly take that much time from work at one shot. The longest so far is two weeks, and that was padded by an extra day on either end for travel.

 

However, someday when I retire, I hope to enjoy some reasonably long cruises.

You have to search by the actual August date. Prices were great.

Sally,

 

Thank you. I am very excited about the trip and all the cool stuff that goes with it. One thing I was wondering was what to do with all those sea days. I am all about relaxing but do they still have activities going on most of the days? Shows, art auctions, etc?
