  1. We're strictly cabin drinkers re the wine and always bring 2 bottles from Yeppoon. Corkage is way too expensive, especially when you have to cart that precious drop all the way from Yeppoon!! Hope you're keeping well Les...nice to hear from you and take care. Anna
  2. Good to know. Thanks Geoff? Yes, Anna here. Keep well!
  3. Hello Everyone, Just need to check if we are still allowed one bottle of bubbly per person (to drink in our cabin of course!) Also, does Princess still present Elites with the mini-bar set up? We haven't been cruising since our March 2020 NZ cruise. It cut short when Princess was closed for the "Covid break". Much catching up to do now and we're off in about a month 😊
  4. Sending very warm get well and feel better wishes Les. Anna 😉
  5. Searching for a company that will cover you for a pre-existing conditions is frustrating. Just when you have the time, some spare cash and would love to travel, you hit this minefield. Galesa..like yourself, I doubt we'll ever get over to the USA again. Best wishes to those in the travel insurance search process and scoring something reasonable.
  6. Hi Rob, It's definitely a challenge to find good insurance for pre-existing, especially if you're aging, as we are. Have you moved to the Sunny State? Tried out the new Brisbane port? Keep well! Anna
  7. This is good news. Not having cruised since the infamous Ruby Princess 'covid' cruise of March 2020, it's good to hear about the relaxed formal night attire. Hubby will be delighted to know that he won't need a new dinner suit 😉.
  8. Finally found a company willing to cover our pre-exisitings and mature ages 7 months out from our cruise. I was quite surprised as One Cover would never have considered us when we started cruising in 2006. Just over the '000 but peace of mind and they will cover Covid 😉 ....should it still be about in January. Hubby will be 80 in 2 weeks time. Does anyone know if 80 is a cut-off age? I couldn't find reference to age limit anywhere??
  9. So happy to hear about your positive experience with AllClear. Thanks for your input,
  10. Thanks to all for the pointers. I checked them all and found AllClear the best option so far since they cover our ages (80, 71) and our pre-existing ailments. I was expecting a premium of around $1000 and wasn't far off. Still, insurance is all about peace of mind in the end.
  11. Thanks a lot for the tips everyone. I'll check out the ANZ policies. Always used Insure and Go in the past, but since hubby turned 80 it's a battle.
  12. Just back into cruising after the covid drought. We are now a few years older (80 and 71) so insurance premiums are much higher. I booked a 2 week cruise to NZ for January '24 and have started looking for reasonable cover. Can anyone help me choose a company that they have found easy to deal with? Cheers and thanks in advance.
  13. Thanks for explaining the new system, Geoff. Not so app savvy myself, but I did load the Princess app onto my phone for the last cruise (2020), when it still had teething problems. It's good to be forewarned/prepared, but I feel for those who were turned away. Covid is back...Coral Princess in Broome has cases as of this morning (Tuesday)...oh dear! Stay safe and enjoy the sunshine . Anna
