Thanks Geoff. Will be interesting to see if there is any change with the launch and Black Friday sales?
Can only hope 🤷♂️
-
Are the pricing breakdowns available yet? Or is it just the promo lead in fares?
-
So the email I got from Princess lists Diamond for 25/26?? Guess once again the proofing department is struggling?

No idea how the bid to upgrades are going on this side of the planet but we have received 4 emails so far (still 60 days out) and the min bid has increased on each one.
Offers going from a Vista suite are no cheaper than what it would have cost us to book it direct, maybe someone will bite????

Has anyone found whether the shareholder and Military OBC can be combined again here as it is in the US?

I also got the survey and completed it. The questions didn’t really give me a chance to tell them what I would like them to know. Who cares about ambassadors?
Double post...

Lol, I got mine but they didn't want my answers when I said I didn't want to say what my income was 😆

I am booked on the Grand Princess on Feb 19th. The Hobbiton tour has been removed from their excursions. I am confirmed on Zealandier Tours for Hobbiton tour that day.
Yep, I called them and booked ours as well. It seems that the Hobbiton has cancelled all cruise ship tours this year.

Any tips for making this cruise as enjoyable as possible within the constraints of being on a P and O ship?
My recommendation for any ship is to approach it with an open mind and remember you are on a cruise, any day at sea is better than one at home 😉
Have fun, enjoy your cruise.

Very few stores are no cash. There are a few KFC stores that hit the news this past week for no longer accepting cash, but we are still at the tip of the iceberg
So funny being in one of these cashless venues when the internet goes down though 🤣 Have had the pleasure of being in a cashless store when they had the internet go down and were unable to process any EFT transactions.
The amount of angry people holding phones at the register was hilarious, even funnier was the pile of unwanted goods left as customers walked off. They still wouldn't accept the good old folding stuff I had though so my stuff was added to the pile at the checkout.
Cashless society ftw.........

www.hobbitontours.com may shed some light on this.
That shows you can book on the day we are scheduled to visit. I expect it is likely that they (Princess) are short on busses again like last time we were in NZ.

105 days out and we just received our tour cancellation from Princess for the Hobbiton today 😞

Our mid March 2025 cruise around Oz was available to book on 4/4/23…maybe around September of 2023 for October 2025?
October 2025 is the Spring sailings and should be out soon the Fall sailings (Mar-Apr) have been out for ages

Mention also a certain e-site which offers Azamara packages including air at competitive prices.
Yes I will have to look into those

You pay for what you get , they all have eggs and cereal for breakfast but compair oranges with oranges .
In this case I am not looking to compare oranges with oranges as I am not looking to compare to my previous experiences.
We have sailed mostly with Princess but that is not what I would want to compare it with as we are looking for something different rather than something the same. That is why I frames the question on how others had found their experience on those cruise lines to be not how those experiences compared to Princess for example.

A lot of the posters on the Silversea board are long time US cruisers who are unhappy with any changes (and let's be honest, there have been cuts on all lines). The dress thread on SS rivals the Cunard one for vehemence and passion! 😃
I kind of got that impression 🙂
We have been Princess cruisers so far but the last few years we have had enough poor experiences with their service that we are cancelling cruises and looking for new options.

Regent looks interesting, we look forward to hearing about your upcoming cruise 🙂
Silversea also looks interesting but when I look over at their forum it seems a bit of a mixed bag?
-
We are looking to try some of the smaller lines and are interested in those which are leaning towards the all inclusive. Interested to hear what others have found in their travels to give us some insights as to which lines may suit us best in the future.
While looking through the various cruiseline websites it can be interesting to see what seems to be all inclusive at first glance isn't quite when you delve a little deeper. Kind of what we expected but it would be nice to hear some first hand experiences.

My wife just kind of looks pathetic and says something like, "I wish I had some cookies..." and I go snag a plate of cookies from the buffet. No "room service" or "ocean now" involved.
Guess the question is how long until the cookies are $$ no matter where you source them? 🤷♂️

How does the price compare to the other suites/cabins? Since they never list the Family suite price on the site there is no way for families to get an idea of price comparison so many may not even consider it?

But the Cove ones are the lowest cost Balcony, so it is not like the OP was trying to score something better. In any case, Princess should be clear in advertising that there is a premium to book on the Sun versus rest of fleet.
I guess more to the point if Princess is going to offer Free Balcony room offers to Casino guests then they had at least make one category available on the ship regardless of what the lowest category is?
Kind pointless offering a prize that doesn't exist on the ship you are offering it on now does it?-

New App is indeed coming for Princess
in Princess Cruises
Posted
If not a change from Club Class to Reserve Collection then to what? Reserve collection is to match the Signature collection I believe?
As to Princess asking for feedback, I know they do send out surveys on different ideas but whether they listen to the feedback......... who knows????
