Kiwi Kruzer Posted June 9, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 9, 2016 They should be able to make a lot of razor blades from her..;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozziepost Posted June 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I've got fond memories of our only trip on that ship even if is only for the number of passengers that got booted off including one group at Mystery Island. Despite it being a rust bucket it had a great vibe sad to see it going the way all good ships eventually end up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royalty X Posted June 9, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) This is sad! I know she had her issues and wasn't the fanciest ship (and I know one person in particular on here who will be happy about it, despite having never sailed on the ship), but a lot of good times were had on that ship.

Rare MicCanberra Posted June 9, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I know all ships eventually go to the scrap heap, but it is always sad when they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted June 10, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 10, 2016 And for you ship historians..Pacific Sun before she sailed for P&O was 'Carnival Jubilee' a Holiday Class ship for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that, the ships all seem to do the rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwendy Posted June 10, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Pacific Sun was my first cruise. I thought she was the most beautiful ship I had ever seen. Been on many fancier and larger ships since, but the Sun holds a special place in my memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted June 11, 2016 #12 Share Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) I didn't know that, the ships all seem to do the rounds. Indeed they do Mic. All 'second hand ships' down here. We might get QM2 in 30 years, Pacific Mary and no formal nights, I like it. Edited June 11, 2016 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest012 Posted June 11, 2016 #13 Share Posted June 11, 2016 She was one of my all time favourites, quirky, rabbit warrenish but beautiful in her own special way.... we cruised on her 3 times, never encountered any problems she was clean and the crew the happiest we have ever met on the high seas.... thanks for many wonderful memories "beautiful white lady" :) ..... for lovers of the Holiday class you can always cruise onboard her older sister......world cruising ....

The_Big_M Posted June 12, 2016 #15 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Once the Henna cruise line wound up, there weren't a lot of likely options for her. Old and not well designed, and not a lot of features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
