'25, Grand and Diamond are not on the Princess schedule. Last cruise currently showing for Grand is a RT to Alaska out of LA. It wouldn't surprise me if Diamond went to P&O AU.

I’m sure the Grand will go back downunder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ombud Posted October 21, 2023 Author #156 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I'd be surprised if the Diamond went, wouldn't be surprised if the Grand was transferred over to POAU 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtnesterz Posted October 21, 2023 #159 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I have no horse in this race, but seems to me the Grand was build in 1998. Only one year newer than the P&OPAU Pacific Explorer, a Sun Class, that it would replace. Both ships must be getting increasingly expensive to maintain. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ombud Posted October 21, 2023 Author #160 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I started this when CCL desperately needed $$s during pandemic. Anyone interested in starting a thread re: size of new ships as many lines (Costa, Cunard, PCL) added new builds (not transfers in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltd Posted October 21, 2023 #161 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Been with the Grand since she came out. Been through all her changes. Would hate to see her go as we love her window suites. I guess if she does go Life Will Go On. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
