NSWP Posted April 17, 2021 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2021 (edited) Ye olde Star Princess, was on her in February 2004, Sydney to Asia. She got a lot of attention at Circular Quay, big ship for the era. First ship of 100,000 plus tonnes to enter Australian waters. Yes 2600 pax, lower berthed, Grand Class. Good vessel. With upper berths she can carry approx 3000 pax and as Pacific Encounter she probably will, all those families and kids, impacting on public areas. In the pram handle was Skywalkers, night club and elite and suite lounge. I wonder what p and o has changed it to?

I guess I meant a medium big ship, rather than large or huge ship. Not small ship which I love. 14 minutes ago, NSWP said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Princess is scheduled for Melbourne in 2022/3. We’re already booked on Adelaide to New Zealand in Jan 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
