  1. You can give extra to your cabin steward or the bar staff
  2. They are entitled to give extra for good service
  3. Yes Cheryle very strange especially when you haven’t been on a Carnival ship maybe when you get the offer ring Carnival and see if you can upgrade to a balcony and pay the extra if they agree
  4. I agree they don’t care if your platinum which I am and I don’t get those offers but I don’t spend much money either or play the pokies, one good thing we get $25 loyalty bonus every cruise Pre covid on Princess we used to get a good loyalty bonus but that has stopped now
  5. To catch the train from Perth airport to Freo do you need to change trains or is it a direct service
  6. Cheryle I was at the airport at 7.45 and that was getting the train to Mascot station then the bus to the airport
  7. The Coral P4incess came in yesterday (Thursday) and they started disembarking passengers at 6.30, but doesn’t always happen
  8. I like searching from a certain online agency in Canberra which we can’t name and see what’s available and then see what the cruise line prices are
  9. That’s the cruise I was talking about, earlier you could book all categories as a solo and not now and I don’t want to spend $4000 on a mini suite
  10. This is the first time I’ve seen this with Princess not allowing solos to book a cruise unless they want to cruise in a mini suite RCL have solo cabins but their not cheap,and not many of them available unless you book very early
  11. I saw a Princess cruise this coming December from Sydney and any solos can’t book an inside cabin , you can book for 2 and maybe the 2nd person can be a no show and get your fees and taxes but no use ringing p&o or Princess because it gets you no where, they want to fill up the ship with 2 or more people per cabin just had a look at the cruise again and solos can’t get an oceanview or a balcony but if they wish to pay $4000 for an 11 night cruise to the South Pacific they can get a mini suite
  12. the air fare home is as dear as the cruise
  13. Not sure if people are aware that if you book an RC future cruise onboard for one of their ships with the Next Cruise desk and your circumstances change you have 2 months to transfer the whole booking to any RC ship in the fleet including any deposits and OBC I was booked on the Ovation this coming November and my travel partner had to bail out of the booking and I was able to go from 2 people booked to a studio balcony on the Quantam for one person and everything was moved over to the new booking and I was given $100 US OBC from the old booking and my OBC had reduced to $50 with only me cruising solo
  14. I drove taxis in Sydney in my early days and I would never go to a pre arranged job because some people come out and grab the first taxi and it takes too much mucking around so people are better off not booking a taxi and grabbing the first one off the rank, much easier
  15. Depends how many planes have landed , you can walk straight thru or it can take an hour and be careful of the sniffer dogs there
