SinbadThePorter Posted January 21, 2020 #4881 Share Posted January 21, 2020 The Cairns channel was dredged out last year. At the moment they are upgrading the wharf, to be finished by April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cheznandy Posted January 21, 2020 #4883 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I was interested in this discussion as we will be stopping in Cairns in 2021. Itinerary for Carnival Spirit says Yorkeys Knob, but having a look at this https://www.portsnorth.com.au/marine-tourism/cruise-ship-schedules/ Spirit is at Cairns Port for that date. Scrolling down you can see the Yorkeys Knob entries. I would be happy to dock at Cairns for this one as it is a 3pm departure so makes for a short day.

I suspect that once they get some experience handling ships up to 300m, they will find a way to fit in the extra 15m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MMDown Under Posted February 13, 2020 #4896 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) North in cyclone season is not so attractive. Plus the cost of a flight to Perth, without time to enjoy Perth!

Ok, so I'm trying to do some quick research on this one for my parents. They are keen to book it. They've done 50+ cruises but never been on Cunard, usually Princess or Celebrity. Daily grats on Cunard?? Taking wine onboard?? Any other tips or things I might be missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read that passengers can take wine onto Cunard and are charged corkage. However I don't know if that charge applies if they drink the wine in their cabin, rather than taking it to the dining room. I don't know about daily grats.
