This is what the Service Vic app looks like when you go into it. Check in is at the bottom and to the far left is a list of your check ins and then beside that is your vaccination cert.

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted October 15, 2021 Author #5352 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I'll have to wait until the next time we go out to check mine. I didn't hear about the NSW app finally handling it until we'd got back from doing our shopping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted October 16, 2021 #5353 Share Posted October 16, 2021 My dream remains a cruise from Brisbane to Darwin. I have no desire to visit or travel from Sydney nor Melbourne at the moment whether their borders are open or not. I usually visit both several times a year and miss them.

You'd probably have to look at some of the smaller luxury cruise lines and they might stop at more ports too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a cruise from Sydney to Darwin when the ship returned to Asia after the SARS Epidemic. Those were the days when you thought nothing of flying south to Sydney to join a cruise north.

Perhaps the P&O 28 day would let you debark in Darwin ? You can board in Brisbane, as the prices are up for Bris-Bris, worth a phone call 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did a sail/stay/rail back in February 2004 on Star Princess, Sydney to Darwin, 5 nights in Darwin in a suite hotel plus tours to Kakadu etc, then Ghan to Adelaide then transferred to Indian Pacific to Sydney, great trip.

I booked a cuise for November 2022 out of Brisbane for 7 days I think on the Coral Princess. Only cause my FCC was running out in 2 weeks. If it happens it happens if it gets delayed again I guess Princess just put it back in the piggie bank for us to use. I tried to look for something out of Melbourne but there virtually nothing.

Porky55 Posted October 18, 2021 #5368 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Wanted to share part of an email we received from P&O Aus regarding a Jan ‘22 cruise (surprised if it happens) and love how up beat it is 😆 What do you think, should we change to March ‘23 so we can use the Twin Racers? 🤔🤣 Departure Date: 15 Jan 2022 15 Oct 2021 Dear Rosalie, We are writing to you to provide an update on your Pacific Encounter cruise. We are sorry to let you know that the installation of our fabulous Twin Racers waterslide on Pacific Encounter has been delayed and will now be available for cruises from the 23rd March 2023. Rest assured, we understand your disappointment. If you were looking forward to racing down one of our Twin Racers and would prefer to change your cruise to after 23 March 2023, we are happy to transfer your booking to an alternative departure.

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted October 18, 2021 Author #5371 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Queensland have just released their roadmap with borders opening to fully vaccinated visitors from hotspots with no quarantine once 80% vax level is reach, which they expect to be just before Christmas. So that's NSW, VIC and QLD that should be open by January. But will they let cruises start? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
