By The Bay Posted February 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Just read that the departure time for this cruise has changed. It is now a 10PM departure with boarding starting at 7PM. Was initially a 4PM departure. I wonder how this will impact on people who had made travel arrangements for the original boarding time of 1PM. Could be a lot of people hanging around White Elephant with not much to do and so much time.:mad::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean you miss out on a dinner? Is there a refund because of this? They will be starting a cruise with very hungry and annoyed passengers.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By The Bay Posted February 2, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Did they give any reason for the change?No email sent yet. Noticed when I checked my eticket. I have never heard of 7pm boarding. I wonder if they will still do a sail-away party? Maybe a BBQ on deck. Does that mean you miss out on a dinner? Better not.:mad: Is there a refund because of this? Good question, but knowing P&O, I doubt it.:( They will be starting a cruise with very hungry and annoyed passengers.:eek: Me included.:mad: Waiting for the email from P&O.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how this will impact on people who had made travel arrangements for the original boarding time of 1PM.

Departure is 2200 to allow for "some routine maintenance that can be carried out more efficiently". The sail-away should go off a treat.:D No impact on arrival at Moreton Island.

emum Posted February 7, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Was it Pacific Jewel in Sydney today ? My mum lives at Manly and noted that whichever ship was due in today, was floundering just inside Sydney heads at 9am, and required the assistance of several tugs. I dare say today's departure will be delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both her and Pacific Dawn seem to need assistance when manouvering. http://www.cafesydney.com/gallery/live-cam/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
