NSWP Posted February 10, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Many of you mob are embarking Majestic Princess tomorrow, enroute to several ports with eventual destination for many being Singapore. As some of you know we were on it too, but had to cancel due to my wife's terminal illness. Our thoughts are with you and might I wish you all a bon voyage and safe journey. I will be watching that bridgecam !! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, as they say ‘it is what it is’........ We are now not cruising until the end of the year (short one out of Melb) but have a couple of Aussie land trips to look forward too. Would love if they relocated the Sapphire down to us and got her out of Asia, while all this is going on, time will tell I guess. Enjoy the Majestic. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobby_The_Ship_Elf Posted February 12, 2020 #13 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I notice you guys are arriving into Melbourne on Sunday at 0800, rather later than the usual 0630 ish arrival. Had to notice as I am playing chauffeur 😎 Is this arrival time due to ....... it not being a turnaround day the tides the number of celebrity CC guests on board Any other wild guesses ..........

Rare cheznandy Posted February 15, 2020 #23 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Just to let you all know Captain just announced this cruise is terminating in Freemantle. Not sure what is happening from there though. Staff don't know either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted February 15, 2020 #24 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I doubt passengers would have thought it was possible that the cruise would finish in Perth. Is the cruise line paying for passengers to fly home from Perth? Most would have return flights booked from Singapore on overseas carriers.

Is the cruise line paying for passengers to fly home from Perth? Most would have return flights booked from Singapore on overseas carriers. Actually most of the passengers I know had doubts they would get to Singapore.It was discussed on our rollcall prior to leaving that some preffered to end in Freemantle.Not sure what payments have been offered, we did not get the letter in our cabin as we disembark this morning.Captain asked everyone to take their time to make decisions before heading to passenger services.We were having dinner when he made this announcement, those in the theatre said he came on midsong haha!Staff have known something was going on and some had said to us that they were not sure the ship would get to Singapore.We were told a couple of times last night that passengers will be disembarked in Freemantle and the ship will sail empty to Singapore for drydock.....but that may change as time goes by, will have to see where it ends up.Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
