Ahhh I didn't know that. thanks

I really expected as the Discovery was coming from Singapore that the OB currency would be USD

Yes I agree, very confusing.

We are booked on this cruise & the Travel Summary in our Princess account definitely shows the onboard currency as AUD

Hi all, If you are doing this cruise in February 2025 check out the roll call that has been created; Diamond Princess, February 2025, Brisbane/Sydney to Tokyo (Yokohama) Regards Dianne

We are also on the Discovery repositioning from Singapore.

The Crown, Diamond & Royal appear to be doing the 2024/2025 Australian season. Not sure why we only have 3 ships next summer. The Crown, Grand & Discovery appear to be the ships for the 2025/2026 summer

The OPT is the Overseas Passenger Terminal & is right in the centre of Sydney. The Majestic Princess will definitely dock there as it is too large to get under the Harbour Bridge to go to the smaller White Bay Terminal. I believe these days all the Princess ships go to the OPT

Not a captain I know has he been with princess long? I don’t see him on the list above.

More information from my informant currently on the Diamond. The new captain is currently onboard but she missed his name, so it can't be Captain Arrigo.

Perhaps he is going back to the Diamond as he is on these lists as its captain 🤔

A report today from the Diamond Princess that Captain Stefano Ravera is leaving when she docks in Yokohama in the next few days & moves to the Grand Princess. No report of who will take his place. Does anyone know why there is so much swapping of captains on the ships?

The itinerary may be the key to why a passport is required. If they have an Australian travel agent it may be advisable to contact them by email.

Have now booked Singapore to Sydney 🙂
