How did you find this site?

[Kinkacruiser]

Hello all,

I'm curious to know :confused: how people found this site.I stumbled on while googling for "cruise reviews". It is really an excellent site , as is the Aussie P&O forum, but I think that only a small % of cruisers visit. It would be good to see, for instance, a bigger roll call for each cruise. Perhaps TA's and/or P&O could give the site a plug? Maybe advertise on the travel wallets we get? What are your thoughts?

Cheers,

Kinka

I was searching for info on the Pacfic Star. Very scarce back then as we were on the 3rd or 4th scheduled cruise. Chaz, Suey and Froggy I think ended up being the first.

 

It is a fantastic site and has grown soo much in the past 12 months (Aussies that is). It would be great if everyone knew about it might help P&O Australia pick up its game.

 

We sailed Celebrity in Alaska back in June and they work together with Cruise Critic. They have a coffee morning especially for cruise critic members which was lovely meeting all these strangers especially since we were the odd ones out. There was another Aussie couple on there too. They had about 30 or 40 people just from cruise critic sailing!

I found the site after googling for information when our Easter 2005 cruise was cancelled!! We weren't getting any info from P&O and I was searching for info. We found out on here before P&O called us that the cruise was to be cancelled.

 

We were actually on the second cruise for the Star. Whitemouse went on the cruise before us...

 

Cheers,

Chaz:)

Ahh, the beloved Google.

 

I too was consulting Professor Google on Pacific Sun reviews and looking for pics.

 

I found myself getting lost in the largeness of this forum for a while but have only just started to settle in and post more.

 

Well, that, and I have actually cruised now so I can participate in the convos. :rolleyes: Before we cruised, I felt so bad asking questions all the time. :o

 

I, too, was surprised to only have a few of my fellow cruisers on this site- I was so hoping that there would be a huge group of us who could relate when chatting about a particular cruise, but oh well. :)

Found this site just recently, was recommended for another poster on Trip Advisor enquiring abour Aussie cruises, so here I am!

I found the site while trawling the net for info on Pacific Star, had a look around and joined up. It's been great so far to get all the info on what's going on.

I was told about this site by a friend who cruised back in January. I'll have to ask her how she found out about it.

Found late one night while seeking anything about the pacific star, two nights after my first cruise to be exact. (and one week before i booked the next:))

I was pointeed to this site by a very kind person from a "Thorn Tree" forum, run by "Lonely Planet". It's a great site!

[Brushtail]

I asked for information on P&O cruising on Fodors website forums - Australia and New Zealand section.

 

Some kind person posted a link and I've been here ever since...... :p

Are you the one I sent over? You were looking for info on daytrips in Vanuatu and Noumea?

 

I found it the same way everyone else did, googling Pacific Star. I am very familiar with travel forums but found it difficult to get info on P&O Australia.

I found this site whilst on TripAdvisor asking questions about Singapore and the cruise terminal there 18 months ago when we first booked our Asian cruise.

yep, thanks, Tiki! It's been great, got some good advice from this forum as well as Thorntree! We're going on the Star Nov 18th Can't wait...

Cool! Welcome to Cruise Critic! This place is great for cruise specific questions. I love Thorn Tree and have been on there for years but they don't really cater to cruisers. I'm also a backpacker when I travel overland!

[strawberrypatch81]

I found cruise critic by googling for information about Pacific Sun and looking for cruise reviews. I couldn't find any and then I accidently found Cruise Critic! Which I am also addicted to!:D

Google is your friend :D
