Oh well there are some nice folks in Canberra I am happy to be able to visit. You could go over it and then head to the freeway via Kangaroo Valley/ Mossvale.

Blackduck59 Posted April 2, 2021 Author #2812 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Well we have decided to proceed. We booked the flights yesterday through that center that likes to fly, (it's a long story). We are flying Air Canada because of the refund rip off from Air New Zealand, almost 9 grand. We have booked the Meriton Suites Kent St. in Sydney post cruise and the Oaks Melbourne Southbank Suite in Melbourne at the end of our trip. Now we need to book Auckland for pre-cruise, I think we will book the same place as we were going to use for the cancelled trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted April 2, 2021 #2814 Share Posted April 2, 2021 We like the Stamford plaza on queen st, check for specials. It is just up the st from the dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare onlyslightlymad Posted April 2, 2021 #2815 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I like the Pullman, but have also stayed at Sky City, Crowne Plaza, Langdon, M Social, Quay West, Fitzroy. All fine but I mostly stay at the Pullman or Fitzroy. Where were you thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliburn Posted April 2, 2021 #2816 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Meriton suites are very central at a good price . A couple of supermarkets steps away , train and light rail a block away at town hall. Also on the edge of Chinatown and darling harbour. When you disembark Lyle you can catch a cab or jump on the light rail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackduck59 Posted April 2, 2021 Author #2817 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Oops the wording on that post was vague, the refund rip off was $600.00. The airfare for the new trip is almost $9.000.00 CAD I think that is a few hundred more than the 14 day cruise. We have booked the Sebel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. We were booked there for the pre-cruise on the trip that we cancelled 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted April 2, 2021 #2819 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Good work Lyle. Crikey, $9000 for air, bit up there. We flew on a Air Canada 🇨🇦 Boeing 767, back in 2006 when we did Vancouver and inside passage cruise, they were ok, flights, Syd to Van and return.

If the cruise doesn’t happen and you can fly you could do a road trip from Auckland to Queenstown and fly to Sydney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
