sweet_successes Posted April 3, 2006 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Has anyone pre registered for the Pacific Dawn and if you did have you got dates and prices yet? Rach PS Thanks to all for letting me clear my head over the changes to my job and the impact on my original cruise plans last night in the chat thread. Feel much happier about it today:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiedisneyfan Posted April 4, 2006 #2 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I filled in a form on their website a couple of weeks ago but I haven't heard anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb_in_Aussie Posted April 6, 2006 #4 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I have spoken to P&O today as bookings were meant to open to the public today. Apparently they are doing some itinerary changes and now they do not know when bookings will open. I am monitoring the situation on a daily basis and will advise as soon as I hear more.

jessica3152 Posted April 6, 2006 #6 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I have spoken to P&O today as bookings were meant to open to the public today. Apparently they are doing some itinerary changes and now they do not know when bookings will open. Mmmmmm Sounds suspiciously like they believe there may be a delay. Given their experiences with the late delivery of both Sun and Sky maybe they are building in some fat to the schedule just in case. It seems these upgrades etc never run to what always appear to be aggressive timeframes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessica3152 Posted April 10, 2006 #7 Share Posted April 10, 2006 P&O now have a link on their website showing floorplans etc of PD. You can also register to receive info from P&O as it becomes available. The link is http://www.pocruises.com.au/html/pacific_dawn_enquiries.cfm Interestingly, the major design change from Regal Princess to PD is the movement of the casino and converting this large area (in the hump at the front) to a bar and lounge area. This makes sense given US ships tend to have much bigger casinos than would be required by Australian clientele. It doesn't appear that there is a waterslide in the plan currently which is surprising given the popularity of this family-friendly feature on Sun. From the map, it apeears that none of the balcony cabins or suites can be configured to take a family of 4 which is mildly disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawberrypatch11 Posted April 10, 2006 #8 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Thanks for that link. That is greaT!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiedisneyfan Posted April 10, 2006 #9 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Thanks for the link. I filled out that form a couple of weeks ago but missed all the info on the ship on the side. I find it strange that there are no 4 berth balconys. Thought that would have been a norm over in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb_in_Aussie Posted April 12, 2006 #10 Share Posted April 12, 2006 The latest news is that Pacific Dawn bookings open to the general public next Tuesday 18 April. The only change appears to be that the maiden cruise is now on 26 Oct 2007 for 8 nights instead of 24 Oct for 10 nights. I have downloaded itineraries for 26 Oct, 3 Nov, 9 Nov, 17 Dec, 27 Dec and 8 Jan 2008. Info for 23 Nov, 1 Dec. 9 Dec are not yet available. If you want copies of the itineraries, please email cada711@optusnet.com.au. Cheers, Deb Cruise Vacations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
