Good to see that there has been traffic and it isn't just some kind of total denial for whatever reason. Though it does seem odd to have a string of denials so close together?

If they actually do have one my bet would be the first sea day. The last sea day would be the night before disembarkation and I have only ever come across one formal night before disembarkation and hope to never see another. The Adelaide stop usually a turn around port as well for the SA based cruisers.

Which ships (if any) have actually done the Fiordlands this season?

Look forward to meeting you both. How is the internet holding up on board? It must have gotten a work out on the sea days over.

Lol looks like it is going well. Hope you had a Merry Christmas. We will be joining you guys when you get to Adelaide too

When you say the ship is quiet do you mean it doesn't seem to be at full capacity or literally quiet?

It will save me a fortune in pearls each time we go to Lyttelton instead of Akaroa 😃

It is times like this that I had started carrying some appropriate tips for the kind folk we encounter when traveling abroad. It is interesting to see the reactions you get when they get a tip of a couple of thousand Iraqi Dinars or a couple of hundred Afghanis 🤷‍♂️

Kind of like visiting my third cousins 😃

Yeah i was thinking along those lines as well. Funny thing is though when I check the personaliser i can see availability for both the morning and afternoon session still being advertised???? Think we will just leave it and see what actually happens

Hmm I received a notice from Princess today that they have to cancel our excursion to the Hobbiton Movie set from Tauranga in Jan for 'Operational' reasons. Pretty vague excuse. What is odd is that Hobbiton still has all the booking slots still reserved for the cruise line with a handful of vacancies dotted in between for the public. Wonder what they need the extra bookings for?

Other than the RSM? 😉

We aren't traveling alone, there are these horrible things called teenagers tagging along....

Anyone remember what the 4 device plan was going for?

Everyone is welcome down under 🙃, though as you may notice even down here some have stronger views than others. But please don't feel unwelcome, we appreciate input from all parties where ever they hail from.

Why is no one complaining about all of those 2 ups in suites?? Surely that is a waste as all suites are at least 3 pax???? 🤣

Damn, sorry. that was the only thing that worked for me. Other than that I found I could never log in with my captain circle details, I can only log in using a booking number and surname???

Last time I had issues I found I needed to update the app. Have you tried update it from the play store?

Unfortunately it doesn't get the smell out though... especially from the cigar lounge if there is one on the ship.

Thank you. Another ever inflating expense 🙃

Can anyone provide feedback on what the price is for the soft drink package price is currently (if they still have it) for kids?

Both were renewals and we were not expecting them to take as long either.

I would like to say good luck, but I hope they have improved their service. Mine took just under three months when submitted in Feb and my sons took nearly 5 months when submitted in Apr this year 😒

Probably a great time to try to quit?
