icat2000 Posted June 21, 2016 Author #2727 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I think the Carnival deals are probably better. In australia dollars no tipping required unless you want too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icat2000 Posted June 21, 2016 Author #2728 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Seems like Princess has opened up the Sea Princess South American voyage into sectors. Too bad they didn't offer that right from day one. Just received an email about it from Princess. It might interest someone.

The_Big_M Posted June 21, 2016 #2729 Share Posted June 21, 2016 They might get dedicated Celebrity cruisers at those prices but if they are not competitive with other cruise lines they are not going to get too many newbies. They do still get a fair number. Do it by advertising as "the only 5 star line" and similar. Just like people going to expensive resorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted June 21, 2016 #2730 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Would definitely have agreed with you Mic about Solstice being the best ship by far ... until last week when we stepped on board the Ovation of the Seas. This is the most amazing ship - you and Rosie will need to try it some time! We will as we are on her for the NYE cruise.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Kruzer Posted June 21, 2016 #2739 Share Posted June 21, 2016 It's an even better price if it's in NZD. :D Not much difference between Au/NZ dollars these days. The difference in price must be the gratuities that are included in the NZ quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always pays to check out the fly cruise deals......sometimes you can do them cheaper yourself , but sometimes the TA's get onto a wholesale flight deal that they can pass on to anyone who books the cruise with them.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it is that the accommodation is of a much higher standard as well which not everyone would pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
