Kiwi Kruzer Posted September 20, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Sun Princess is in Brisbane today after her Round Australia cruise and will turnaround and head off for a lovely 42 day cruise to Asia. I like the overnight in Hong Kong, especially with it being on a weekend.

lizzy77 Posted September 21, 2011 #5 Share Posted September 21, 2011 We did the Cherry Blossom Cruise on the Dawn Princess, leaving from Shanghai, a couple of years ago and went to some of these ports. They were great and loved them all. The itinerary was full of WW11 history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandielle Posted September 21, 2011 #6 Share Posted September 21, 2011 That would be a great cruise! They interviewed the Captain of the Sun Princess, Andrew Froud, on TV tonight and had a few shots of the ship. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwicruiser25 Posted September 21, 2011 #10 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Picture of Sun Princess leaving Brisbane tonight, should be on it but missed out, would have been nice to visit Hong Kong again. :((( Well so much for getting the picture on here, thats what happens when u don't really know what you are doing. Sorry!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Australian family Posted September 21, 2011 #11 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Had to laugh at the comments of the Captain on TV tonight that the cruise terminal is on the wrong side of the Gateway Bridge. How Brisbane lacks the necessary infrastructure to cater for larger cruise ships. Princess got good media coverage on TV tonight, saw articles on channel 10 & 7.

Billy and Charlie's Mum Posted September 21, 2011 #12 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Had to laugh at the comments of the Captain on TV tonight that the cruise terminal is on the wrong side of the Gateway Bridge. How Brisbane lacks the necessary infrastructure to cater for larger cruise ships. Princess got good media coverage on TV tonight, saw articles on channel 10 & 7. He's right though, if we want to get the big ships into Brisbane we need another terminal on the other side of the Gateway Bridge. When we docked in Brisbane on the Oriana it was at Fishermans Island. The only problem with that was that it is a fair hike from anything and they had to put up tents as a temporary terminal for the passengers.

Anna, it is the first cruise of Sun Princess's season from Brisbane! I would have loved to be on it!!! The Round Australia cruise before this one finished in Brisbane instead of Sydney. We had friends on that and they chose it because it finished in Brisbane and was easier , and less hassle, to get to the airport and fly back to Auckland.
