    To long ago to remember.

    What do they do if cyclonic weather is about for round Oz cruises ? The Coral P is due to depart Sydney on 29th Feb and travel in an anti clockwise direction. Lots of international visitors onboard.

    Thanks for your responses which were very helpful. Cheers, Barry

    Geoff, have you asked security on the Coral when you have departed the ship at ports in Australia and what was their response? We are on Coral on the round Oz cruise at the end of Feb next. Barry

    Agree that the charm of Mystery Island is the limited commercialisation and its natural beauty. Hopefully development plans do not proceed.

    Best wishes for some great cruises.

    What would footy team support be without bias? With Princess abandoning home porting in Melbourne it was inevitable they would link elsewhere. Their support of Sydney Swans won't endear them in the other states. We are a parochial lot but that's half the fun, isn't it ?

    As a Blues supporter a resounding NO !!!

    Thanks for these excellent reviews. We are doing around Oz in 3 months on Coral so comments were very helpful. Will take plenty of coffee bags and mugs with lids to carry hot water. Glad you had a most enjoyable cruise.

    I'm with you Don. Will be travelling elsewhere when homeporting ends here. Have a great cruise. Barry

    The British gentleman we dined with on QE pre covid still wore his tie when gardening !! He would be shocked at your suggestion Les. A bloke from Broken Hill suggested formal dress for him was long socks and clean shorts but was howled down when he enquired whether this was acceptable dining room attire on Cunard.

    Great to read your home again Les pain free. Sending best wishes.

    Unfortunately you can no longer exchange your minibar setup for a coffee card. Not fair for non drinkers IMO.

    We stayed at the Rendezvous Hotel in Harrington Street 3 weeks ago having walked their with our luggage from the cruise terminal. We can confirm it was comfortable and reasonably priced.

    Agree. Whilst having been to PI many times we enjoyed the day similar to your experience. The penguins are the attraction to overseas cruisers.

    We were on the Grand in January and again last month. We found the condition of the ship good and the entertainment quite acceptable. I think like all of the hospitality industry it is a battle to get back to pre pandemic standards.

    Having just cruised on the Grand, we too were very disappointed in the removal of the coffee card option for the mini bar. For non or minimal drinkers it was a reasonable alternative and an equitable benefit that has now been removed without warning.

    Yes Mark our experience also that they won't let you use FCC as OBC, only for new bookings. Good luck.

    Wishing you a very happy anniversary tomorrow as you enjoy your champagne balcony breakfast whilst cruising through the fabulous Fiordland.

    Thanks Don for your review whilst feeling unwell. What deck is Club Class dining on and did you share a table? Wishing you a speedy recovery and some medicinal beverages. Barry

    Wishing you a great cruise Don. It's been a long time coming for us Vics. Will be interested in your review in due course. We are travelling on her early January. Barry

    Wishing you all the very best Les. Have enjoyed your insights over the years and your sense of humour which is worth its wait in gold. Barry.
  24. bazshirl2
    Thanks Geoff. Great news all round. Long may it continue.
