Rare MicCanberra Posted December 13, 2013 #126 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Yes he was referring to the South Pacific. Cheers Di There are plenty of options (for ships with tenders) in the pacific, especially if PNG ports are going to be utilised more along with the Solomon Islands, Fiji, Samoa (may be too far), etc..:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

springaussie Posted January 31, 2014 #133 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Rhapsody of the Seas now appears in Buenos Aires cruise ship visits for 2015/16 season. http://www.puertobuenosaires.gov.ar/moduloGRAL.php?p=temppostprox If you look in the pop down menu for the vessel column for Marina Bay Cruise Terminal in Singapore the Explorer of the Seas is the only Royal Caribbean Ship that has not been to Singapore. So it would appear Explorer of the Seas is bound to visit Singapore. http://mbccs.com.sg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted February 1, 2014 #134 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Rhapsody of the Seas now appears in Buenos Aires cruise ship visits for 2015/16 season. http://www.puertobuenosaires.gov.ar/moduloGRAL.php?p=temppostprox Thanks.

gbenjo Posted February 1, 2014 #135 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Rumours, rumours, rumours...... Latest I have heard is that a cruise on the ship that replaces the Rhapsody will be a real " adventure". So that is about five or six different ships coming here........someone must be correct:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbenjo Posted February 2, 2014 #138 Share Posted February 2, 2014 At least we know it will not be the Oasis or the Allure...... Or do we?????:D After all they are extending the wharf area at the OPT to handle Oasis sized ships......and it is supposed to be completed by end of 2014-2015 season......rhapsody leaves end of 2014-2015 season Hmmmmm.:cool::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbenjo Posted February 2, 2014 #140 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) If it was an Oasis ship , it would it have to go non stop from Singapore to Sydney .:D I was only kidding about the Oasis or Allure I think there would still be a problem with the depth of the water at the OPT at low tide and I could not see many of the regular ports of call down this way handling a ship of their size, imagine trying to tender 5000 pax at all those ports So Royal have twenty one ships ..take away Oasis, Allure, Rhapsody, Radiance and Voyager and we have sixteen left.....LET THE GAMES BEGIN..... It's just a process of elimination:confused: Edited February 2, 2014 by gbenjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fox Posted February 2, 2014 #143 Share Posted February 2, 2014 The Rhapsody of the Seas name was updated recently on Sydney Ports showing all but 2 sailings between 2 December 2015 - 21 March 2016 as being in port from 0600 to at least 2100.I am thinking it is a possible Freedom Class Ship from Asia camouflaged as Rhapsody. Check in would take a lot longer for a larger ship at Sydney with the current terminal. The 3 November 2015 position in Fremantle would be the entry point to Oz from Asia. The Rhapsody name does has positions booked prior to and after the December 2015 - March 2016. But they have not been deleted yet or Royal has not handed them back yet. Any thoughts. Yep that makes a lot of sense to me. Col:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to know you will be on-board as well! As we disembark on the 17th and the Voyager 3-day sampler starts on the 19th, I've decided that as I'll already be in Sydney, I may as well wait a couple of days then do them both! I see that your cabin is near the aft! I prefer mid-ship so I'm closer to the elevators! These Junior Suites are selling fast so many must have realised that they are cheaper than the ocean view balconies! Just one accessible 8010 and 7 others left 8074, 8080, 8090, 8094, 8578, 8584 & 8594. Do you want to start a ROLL CALL for this cruise? :confused: Gae Edited February 3, 2014 by gaechann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard-habit-to-break Posted February 3, 2014 #146 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) We saw that one too, can't work out why a JS is cheaper than a balcony. Really tempted - but we have Alaska - Vancouver - Hawaii - Sydney booked for this year.........although I am sure we could squeeze in a Tassie trip at the beginning of next year so we may also join you! Love, Love, Love Rhapsody and want to cruise one more time on her before she leaves us. I have booked a Junior Suite on the following cruise: Tasmania Royal Caribbean International Ship - Rhapsody of the Seas Departs - 7th February 2015 Nights - 10 Sydney – Australia > Burnie > Melbourne > Adelaide > Hobart > Sydney – Australia They are showing up as CHEAPER than balconies so why wouldn't you?

Cruise Certificate it's just $100 deposit to secure this THEN decide later if you can fit it in! :) Yes, RHAPSODY is my favourite too! Great crew, great shows, great food! What's not to love!

Had a look at the solo rate is 200% You're right Sarah - showing $3409 for JS solo! :eek: One of our local Travel Agent has a Solo Cruisers Group which I'm thinking about joining if I can't get any of my friends to commit to the dates of my future cruises. Perhaps there's one near you too. I did hear of a Great Aussie Cruise Club too so perhaps they have some solos that wouldn't mind sharing!
