big difference to overnight in cairns dock versus yorkys knob

 

i was interested when i seen cairns O.night,but its a long shuttle bus from the knob to

 

cairns downtown.not worth the effort for me

When it says Cairns it usually means Yorky’S, unless you are on a small ship, the others can’t get in

best to organise an over night hotel than try doing the tenders both days, wastes too much time

the rain forest areas in the mountains  behind Cairns are very beautiful

I was interested in this discussion as we will be stopping in Cairns in 2021. 

Itinerary for Carnival Spirit says Yorkeys Knob, but having a look at this  https://www.portsnorth.com.au/marine-tourism/cruise-ship-schedules/  Spirit is at Cairns Port for that date. Scrolling down you can see the Yorkeys Knob entries.

 

I would be happy to dock at Cairns for this one as it is a 3pm departure so makes for a short day.

The Sun class ships have always been able to get into Cairns. Pacific Dawn is not allowed to enter due to limitations in its propulsion system.

Ok, so I'm trying to do some quick research on this one for my parents. They are keen to book it. They've done 50+ cruises but never been on Cunard, usually Princess or Celebrity.

Daily grats on Cunard??

Taking wine onboard??

Any other tips or things I might be missing?

Sorry I don't know many details. Have a look at travel agents that love to cruise or maybe you like to cruise first ❤️

I have read that passengers can take wine onto Cunard and are charged corkage. However I don't know if that charge applies if they drink the wine in their cabin, rather than taking it to the dining room.

 

I don't know about daily grats.
