Princess Chatterer Posted July 5, 2007 Author #9 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The hardest ship to follow around the globe was the Sun Princess and the biggest surprise was Star Princess going missing out of Seattle - according to the Princess web site schedule - for about two months starting next September. Another surprise was not finding a World War 2 mid-Pacific island hoping tour on the Princess schedule. A minor surprise was seeing the Tahiitian Princess stop twice at La Havre in two days near the end of her extended world tour in the Spring of 2009. I guess that when you are on a cruise of 117 days a double stop really shouldn't matter very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted July 5, 2007 #10 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The hardest ship to follow around the globe was the Sun Princess ....... Thanks w0kie, Nice stuff. Certainly glad the Sun Princess will find us down under.:D Have some extra info for you if you wish to update your ?'s on Sun Princess. S:145 = Fremantle (2 days, 1 night) S:153 = Burnie ( A port in Tasmania) S:155 = Hobart ( 2 days, 1 night) S:268 = Fremantle (2 days, 1 night) S:276 = Burnie ( A port in Tasmania) S:278 = Hobart ( 2 days, 1 night) The ????'s between S115 & 128 is what has us worried. The Sun Princess is having a bit of a refit, getting ready for the Australian placement. We are hoping that the ship will be given an all round freshen up, but this doesn't always happen when ships transfer here. Many of the ships that come to Oz are Australianized by refitting to hold extra passengers (4 berth cabins). Hope this does not happen to SP, and would appreciate any extra information on those 2 weeks of ?????'s. Cant wait for S:180 to roll around!

Rare Coral Posted July 5, 2007 #12 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Many of the ships that come to Oz are Australianized by refitting to hold extra passengers (4 berth cabins). That actually would be difficult to do on that ship - hope it doesn't happen sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derf5585 Posted July 5, 2007 #14 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Many of the ships that come to Oz are Australianized by refitting to hold extra passengers (4 berth cabins). Prior to Pacific Sun’s relocation to Australia she received a multi-million dollar refit giving her a bright new interior and exterior look what is known as being “Australianised.” Externally she received the same paintwork as past P&O ship Pacific Sky, featuring a broad blue and yellow bands with a golden sun painted on her forward superstructure. In addition her funnel has lost her Carnival winged funnel, which now looks more streamlined. from http://www.e-cruiseworld.com/pacificsun.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongerob Posted July 5, 2007 #16 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Your security software probably prevented the file downloading to your computer. Look at the very top of the new IE window that opens and you'll probably see a message that the download was refused. Try going through Bill's website Princessshutter and see if that helps, or turn off you security temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition her funnel has lost her Carnival winged funnel, which now looks more streamlined.from http://www.e-cruiseworld.com/pacificsun.htm We are unsure as to what changes to expect. The difference with Pacific Sun, and soon with Regal Princess, is that they transfer to different ownership. When Regal Princess transfers to P&O Australia as Pacific Dawn, she will get a new paint job, but also increase its passenger number from 1590 to 2050. Sun Princess is remaining with Princess (and still lives on w0kies spreadsheet), but cruising from Sydney, Melbourne & Fremantle for the next couple of years (or more). It would be fair to think that everything will remain the same on the ship, but there are some changes that are already announced: No anytime dining No Ultimate Balcony Breakfast Charges for casual dining such as Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Pizza Charges for room service No Captains Circle for Australians While we think that the two weeks off the seas are just to refurbish the ship, we have not been able to get any details either way. Australianizing usually includes adding lots more berths. Sorry for taking this off-topic, just clarifying info from the earlier posts.

Poulsbo Cruisers Posted July 5, 2007 #18 Share Posted July 5, 2007 This is fantastic. I believe the missing days from a ship represented by ?????? are wet or dry dock days when the ship is being refurbished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinChris Posted July 5, 2007 #21 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The difference with Pacific Sun, and soon with Regal Princess, is that they transfer to different ownership. , The ships do not actually have any change in ownership. They are simply being transferred between sister lines (all owned and operated by P&O Princess Cruises as a wholly owned subsidiary of Carnival Corp). The deck them out in new livery and adjust their onboard ambiance to be in keeping with the rest of PO Australia. The Sun is not being permanently transferred, or so it seems, and I would expect most the changes to relatively minor - a la the changes that Sea Princess and Ocean Princess underwent went transferred to PO. the Regal is a "permanent" transfer (or less temporary), hence the more elaborate refit ( a true refit BTW).

Rauld Posted July 5, 2007 #23 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Wow: This is impressive. FYI, the Diamond has changed its itinerary slightly-at least on our Nov. 3rd cruise to Hawaii. silver cruiser: You will need excel to open this or Lotus. You may be able to open it in microsoft word but the formating would be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phamer55 Posted July 5, 2007 #24 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The Star Princess is doing 4 10-day roundtrip Mexican Riviera cruises out of SF before she leaves SF for South America in November '08. She's also doing two of these cruises starting April 17 '09. These open for booking July 11th, but I don't expect to see them on the Princess website until weeks afterwards (although they should appear on online websites soon thereafter). I'm interested in seeing what the coastals look like for 2009, I haven't seen anyone post them yet. This is a very cool spreadsheet - thanks for putting it together.
