Apparently last time RC took a ship around the horn it was very unprofitable.Ship capacity was 30% The long way around the world would be more lucrative. So serenade leaves us in Sydney early next season, I think it was February. So it’s possible we may have Navigator of the seas in Sydney March to May. Just speculation. Yes anchor 5km out and tender in over the sandbar, lol. No ships from the dark side in here thanks, Botany Cruise Terminal for RCI, lol.

Rare MMDown Under Posted March 21, 2021 #481 Share Posted March 21, 2021 I wonder how many people will be happy to cruise in an inside cabin? Would be good if cruise lines could advertise lead in fares for balcony cabins to give people a realistic idea of cost of a cabin with fresh air.

We tried an inside cabin once, too claustraphobic for me. Oceanview minimum. Balcony or mini suite desirable. The new build ships have many more balcony cabins. Its what the people want.

Not a big deal really but you can get one top shelf glass of wine for half price. Then a second at 20% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s any drink you can get with the booze package. Any time of the day under the $12 cap , if you go over the cap you pay the extra. The C&A menu was pretty basic before. A beer , a glass of basic wine or a soft drink. If you wanted a gin and tonic sometimes you would have to use two vouchers .You only got 3 vouchers and only during happy hour. What was happy hour? I forgot, 4:30 to 7:30 PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sure do. Here is what is on the website. "As previously advised, authorities have detained foreigners on grounds of 'endangering national security'. Australians may be at risk of arbitrary detention. " 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
