Rare MicCanberra Posted August 9, 2016 #226 Share Posted August 9, 2016 It is too bad those lights on the ship are so bright, makes it more difficult to see the night lights of San Fran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi_cruiser Posted August 10, 2016 Author #231 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Sun Princess is now on her way to Nawiliwili, Kauau, Hawaii: SUN PRINCESS at ShipWatcher Nawiliwili was not on the Itinerary, so they might be getting a extra Hawaii stop?, depends if they still go to Lahaina and Hilo?

Extra stop, to make up for not going to San Diego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 11, 2016 #235 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Extra stop, to make up for not going to San Diego. Good news then as they also had an extra day in San Francisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vader1111 Posted August 12, 2016 #236 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'm guessing the original itinerary had a sea day between San Francisco and San Diego. Assuming the same sailing time to Hawaii, that would have left them with an extra day to fill. Net loss: 1 sea day and 1 day in San Diego. Net gain: 1 day in San Francisco and 1 day on Kauai.

Aus Traveller Posted August 12, 2016 #238 Share Posted August 12, 2016 In light of the situation, it is a win then. Out of all the stops the ships do in Hawaii, I would rate Nawilwili at the bottom of the list UNLESS the person does a tour. Then it is quite good. On our first visit, we decided to just look around the local area. That was not a good idea, because there was virtually nothing of interest.

What I meant was that they missed San Diego but gained an extra day in San Francisco and they missed a sea day but gained an extra Hawaiian port instead. For those who don't want to go ashore it will still be like a sea day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted August 16, 2016 #243 Share Posted August 16, 2016 (edited) A very busy city, one that is best to keep away from during the peak traffic hours and get out around the island. Weather doesn't look that great though. Edited August 16, 2016 by MicCanberra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Kruzer Posted August 16, 2016 #244 Share Posted August 16, 2016 So you are on a cruise....what would you do , or what have you done with 1 full day in Honolulu ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 17, 2016 #245 Share Posted August 17, 2016 So you are on a cruise....what would you do , or what have you done with 1 full day in Honolulu ? When we were there, we had an over nighter. We went to pearl harbour on one day (it is away from the city in relation to the port) and then went into the city after lunch and missed a lot of the traffic. The second day we did a round the island tour that took us to many sites and landmarks as well as beaches an such. All I remember was the traffic going the other way during the morning and afternoon peak hours were horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekka49 Posted August 17, 2016 #246 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Great walk to the top of Diamond Head:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 17, 2016 #247 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Great walk to the top of Diamond Head:eek: That is another option but you would need to get across town before the morning traffic gets too heavy. Note, the reason I am going on about the traffic is that Honolulu has been deemed one of the worst cities in all of the US along with the likes of LA, San Francisco, Washington and NYC. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2013/05/04/worst-traffic-cities/2127661/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
