If anyone is looking for a cheap last minute cruise here it is - P and O Pacific Dawn 29 April, 7 nights to Noumea, Vila, Lifou ex Brisbane. Only $299 twin share interior or $379 twin share oceanview.

 

By the time i literally moved from one screen to the next it was gone :(

 

Also noticed that Explorer of the Seas on 26 Nov has gone up $300 :rolleyes:

Those Pacific Dawn prices are still on the P&O website. You just have to patient because the screen update is really slow.

Yep! Still advertised but the price on a twin interior is $1798 :(

I just looked again and its still there at $299pp twin interior.

 

It gives you three pricing options, Go, Value and Value Plus at $299, $899, $1249 respectively.

Sorry, my mistake. I didn't go the last step in the booking.:o

 

I booked a single window yesterday for $798 and it all looked just the same.

If you are still looking, Aria is currently priced at $399pp for twin window for the 7 day Island Hopper departing 5th May.

P and O seems to be having some last minute deals. There is the Aria one in the previous post and also this one - Pacific Dawn ex Brisbane 7 nights to North QLD. $398 twin share interior, $448 twin share oceanview, solo $798.

Did you make booking on line or by phone? My first experience with P&O and I'm having no luck with either. So frustrating trying on mobile phone!

I booked on the P&O website. It's a strange site, sometimes it's fine and then a few minutes later it's as slow as a wet wick.

Bon Voyage!

 

I wasn't able to make a booking, despite trying on-line, phone, and email. Now I note it shows sold out. I wanted to experience the ship, because I was considering a longer cruise on her.

 

Would appreciate your comments on the ship and the cruise, on your return.

If anyone comes across the P.O Tasmania Dark MOfo cruise on 13 June going exceptionally cheap can you post. I'm already booked but have family members wanting to come but only if it gets very cheap. Seems to be a lot of availability but not cheap enough for them yet !

Just had a look and around $780 pp inside. A crossing of Bass Strait during winter might not be everyone cup of tea. Could definitely drop closer to sailing. Good luck.

[MicCanberra]

Some great specials happening on P&O with selected sailings.

P&O have got this Dark Mofo cruise in their 24 hour sale finishing tomorrow night (Friday 5th) Not sure what you call cheap but they have quads at $450 interior and $500 oceanview pp. Twin are $550 int and $600 oceanview pp. Twin balconies available and suites.

You may get it cheaper through a TA.

[burchan]

It is getting a bit harder to find any good cruise deals at the moment. Just noticed Cunard has free upgrade deals making it a good value for balcony staterooms in Australian sectors of the world cruise.

Most cruise lines are cost cutting and standards of dropping. Cunard continue to maintain high standards making it best value around.

[MicCanberra]

Wow, just wondering if the Majestic Princess will have any cheaper cruises at all or if we have to wait for last minute (if any)..

Looks like I was lucky I couldn't make a booking on Aria.

 

SinbadThePorter - Sorry to hear that Cyclone Donna has affected your cruise, with an extended stay in Noumea and the missing of two ports. Hope the seas aren't too rough on the cruise back to Brisbane.

A friend has been sailing on it the past week in the med, he has liked the ship overall, his son loves the kids club, says food has been ok, but feels the entertainment has been lacking and nothing compared to what he has seen on RCI or MSC.
