Well we booked on the Edge in March back to N.z. within 6 weeks but looking forward to exploring the ship. We were lucky I only saw one wheel chair and one mobility scooter on Resilient Lady.i was surprised that there were slot of older people on the cruise mostly over65 I think

Hi. When the 2 new ships entered Aust last year.I was eager to try the Edge and Virgins Resilient Lady ship. Having just got home from an 11 night cruise on the Resilient Lady she certainly lived up to the great expectations I have we had a great time. I could not fault it. Hoping to book the Edge to N.Z. again for Msrch to compare in my opinion the ship is the destination. Any thoughts on the Celebrity Edge ship. Thanks in advance

We are onlvthis cruise also if it's the one in mid Jan looking forward to the new experience. Regards Zanny

Hi All Just read that there is a large outbreak of gastro and covid on the Grand Princess that is due in Adelaide tomorrow. Was wondering if any one else has heard anything. Regards Zanny

Already have a virgin cruise booked January 2024 and live in Adelaide but I think it's a great idea would have book the dinner and tour if I lived in those 2 states

Don't know if you have to book dinner to get go and look over the ship

Hi I just saw that the Virgin Ship Resilient Lady will be open to the public on Dec 5th later in the day to have a look at the ship and book one of the restaurants. For dinner Cost is $99.(not sure if aust dollar although I would say U.S. dollars. I have a cruise booked on the ship mid Jan but if you lived in Sydney I think this is a great idea. What are your thoughts? Regards Zanny

We are booked on Resilient Lady ship from Auckland mid Jan.11 nights Not too sure what to expect the food etc has great reviews (I think the food could be too fancy for us) but are going to enjoy the challenge. Would also like to go on Celebrity Edge but haven't booked and not sure if that will happen. Regards Zanny

Hi I was wondering if many of cruise critic members have booked a cruise on the 2 new ships coming to Aust later this year. I know they are fairly new especially the Virgin one. At the moment the cheapest cabins are round $300aust per night. Do you think they will come down in price as the time get closer to arrival here in Aust. Your thoughts would be very much appreciated. Regards Zanny

Thanks for all your replies I was just interested how long people think this will go on for. I have had 5 covid jabs and also still wear a mask and face shield everytime I go out in public still. Regards Zanny

Hi Was just wondering what peoples views are on when all the covid isolation and test rules could end for cruise ships in Australia.. I am not against the rules by any means but seeing in most parts of the world now on cruises there aren't any restrictions to isolate etc if you test positive. Surely the rules can't go on forever.This is mainly curiosity on what others think Thanks Zanny
