Hi Digby,

 

Go to the Oceania Yahoo board and look for Claudia's post there. It will lead you to the Oceania Australia Board link.

Thanks! I met a lot of very nice people using that board prior to our Beijing to HK cruise last march.

Since I have been reading so many posts on CC and other cruise boards from people who say they have already booked cabins on these cruises, I just called "O" directly and asked about reserving now for these cruises. I was told that it was impossible to book now as fares and itineraries have not even been set. They expect it will open in about 2 months for reservations. So, if you think you are already booked, you better check with your booking agent. I think these will be very popular cruises and probably will sell out early.

The itineraries and pricing have indeed been finalized.

 

Reservations will open on September 1.

 

Based on the responses from this board and from other sources, my guess is that all 4 sailings that touch Australia/New Zealand will be the fastest to sell out in the history of Oceania.

I can't believe the hype on these cruises! We booked on Celebrity as soon as they opened their cruises to Australia/New Zealand - we've never been on Oceania but are booked for the first time January 2007 to S.E. Asia - we've been loyal to Celebrity since our first trip on the Meridian. Now we're on a list for the Oceania cruise and considering "jumping ship" from Celebrity. . . . All I have to say is Oceania must be doing something wonderful! I do hope that the itinerary is similar to Celebrity's and the price structure is in line with Oceania's other cruises - fjdelrio are you listening. . . . . . .?

P.S. I prefer lighter blankets as I do have "power surges"!

yipee - have promised my husband that I would take him on an Oceania cruise after my return from Athens-Rome on Nautica - was hoping that they would come down to Oz - save us flying 22 hours to Europe to get on a ship - so it looks like we will also be on board doing the Sydney-Auckland trip in 2008 - hooray - getting excited already...

 

Cheers

Agree with you on that Frank.

Thanks for making the decision to take the ship to new "lands" .

Now that we got you to do Australia/ New Zealand...how about next considering ....

Do any of you all have the itinerary on February 8th Sydney to Bangkok? I misplaced it after my return from the Iceland trip. I saw it on the boards, but I can't find it again. Thanks.

I wasn't aware that anyone "knew" any of the itineraries. If they do, I would really appreciate a run down - particularily the Auckland to Sidney run. I'm hoping that it is similar to Celebrity's . . . . . or better yet, has an overnight in one or two ports.

Thanks MoyMoy, I have a good idea. I couldn't even read that much of my notes from that meeting, so you are good.... (What ever happened to my old shorthand).
