We have travelled NZ in a camper in June & September...was a tad chilly😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marinating Posted October 8, 2022 #5503 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Majestic Princess NZ 13 days 25th November $1070 for inside guarantee. We are on the two previous cruises in a balcony, just maybe they may leave us there! We have never had an inside but at that price was a steal! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it is cyclone season with no guarantee yet that cruises will spend time in PNG. Queenslanders dream of cruising north in winter, we go south in summer.

CDaze71 Posted October 9, 2022 #5507 Share Posted October 9, 2022 There's also some bargain solo deals on the two Luminosa sailings before the above NZ one. 6th and 13th November. Look on Carnival's direct website. Price varies for VIFP and 55+ age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlep Posted October 12, 2022 #5508 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) P&O are having a "buy 2 get 2 free" sale on selected sailings. Eg if four adults share a cabin on an 11 nighter to Vanuatu ex Sydney, it works out around $46 pp/day. Perfect for large groups or fans of Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.

Hmm... 2003 flights may be a little hard to book! We paid $817 return each for Jan/Feb flights and could get them for $651 each now, so still a little cheaper than a couple of weeks ago.

Virgin up to May for specials. I missed my Feb opportunity Where to? My daughter almost didn't join me in Sydney because of the cost of air fares. She decided to work in the office in Sydney on the Tuesday, after the long weekend. and got a ticket after work to return home. I might look into using my ff points.

Rare LincolnLegend Posted October 14, 2022 #5515 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) @MMDown Under we fly from country SA so two flights each way. February is definitely still cheaper for us, you have to scroll down a bit for January but the three really cheap options showing for me are for 27/04/23 - 22/06/23, 18/7/23 - 15/9/23 and about $10 more for 1/2/23 - 4/4/23. Where are you flying from? Edited October 14, 2022 by LincolnLegend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LincolnLegend Posted October 14, 2022 #5517 Share Posted October 14, 2022 @MMDown Underthat's weird that you only get 2 "date zones" whereas we had 3, guessing $230 isn't cheap for you, we pay that for a 30 minute flight to Adelaide if we don't get in early!
