More information from my informant currently on the Diamond. The new captain is currently onboard but she missed his name, so it can't be Captain Arrigo. -
Perhaps he is going back to the Diamond as he is on these lists as its captain 🤔
-
A report today from the Diamond Princess that Captain Stefano Ravera is leaving when she docks in Yokohama in the next few days & moves to the Grand Princess. No report of who will take his place. Does anyone know why there is so much swapping of captains on the ships?

Passport Requirements for Intra-Australia Cruise
Wanderers2 replied to rwmiller's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
The itinerary may be the key to why a passport is required. If they have an Australian travel agent it may be advisable to contact them by email. -
Have now booked Singapore to Sydney 🙂
-
I think just the Promo fares. I have attached a copy of that part of the brochure. We can hope they offer some deals. Princess Brochure Prices.pdf

Australian itinerary for Discovery Princess has been release & for sale from November 29th Discovery arrives in Sydney December 6th 2025
-
We will be on the Diamond February 25 Sydney to Yokohama. Will be our first time in the Diamond . Very curious how the Onsen works 🤔
-
Apparently there have been a few crew changes on the Royal Princess when she arrived in Australia today.
-
The Royal (arrived this morning) & Majestic (arrives in Sydney Nov 4) have both been sailing Alaska & have come across via LA, Honolulu, NZ then to Sydney (I may have missed a couple of stops but that is the basic route) Discovery might be something similar
-
She is cruising Alaska before she comes to Australia so not sure about Darwin, unless she comes to Asia first
-
Looking inward not out to sea. Yes I agree
-
Have you been on any of the other Royal Class ships as the Majestic is different from those to some extent.
-
I just checked the NSW Port Authority website & it shows the Discovery Princess first arriving in Sydney, November 29th 2025. Not sure if that is the final listing.

Princess has just announced that they will be posting medallions to Canada as of September 25th. Maybe there is hope for us yet 🤞 -

We cruised out of Southampton in June & they didn’t even want to see proof of vaccination. No boarding times & even with collecting our medallions we were onboard in 10mins 😱 -

I will be very interested in the protocols for Aussie cruises for this coming summer. The first will be when the coral gets back from the world cruise I guess 🤔 -
No Green lane in Australia
Wanderers2 replied to Normanville's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
That could be right. We had all our docs & test results, were green lane on the app & were on in about 20 mins -
No Green lane in Australia
Wanderers2 replied to Normanville's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
I suppose it depends on the ship & the time. Last November when we boarded the Majestic the queue for non priority boarding was all the way back to the Museum of Contemporary Art. Luckily we had the priority boarding so just walked through. -

Actually at the Sydney OPT there really isn't room for multiple lanes -
