Thanks for your help!

We are looking at doing a cruise in the South Pacific and this cruise line seems perfect. Just wondered if anyone here has had experience with them.

Well, it helps that our son and his SO are in Melbourne now. At least we will have an excuse to sail her. Thanks and I'm so looking forward to our cruise.

Thanks so much! The more I hear, the more excited I get

It sounds like we will have no trouble keeping busy on board. :DD Thanks!

That is great news!

I'm hoping that we will enjoy her. We are used to a much smaller ship, but I'm starting to get excited about sailing on the Coral. Thank you for the positive reinforcement

Thanks for the warning! 😄

I don't usually go to the IC, so no worries there. We're midship, so I'm hoping it will be easy access for everything. Thanks!

That's great to hear! Thanks!

Bigger isn't always better. We've always favored the smaller ships, so I'm hoping we will find a home on the Coral

I agree. Bigger isn't always better

Thank you so much for the links! I will check them out. I was lukewarm about this cruise and now I'm excited. 😄

Thanks! I've just retired from a career in theatre, so I'm always in the front row for a show. :DD

I don't understand Princess at times. It's not always about how many cabins you can cram onto the ship. I know that's why they got rid of the smaller ships (Tahitian, Ocean and Pacific). Even though they charged more for sailing on them, I guess it wasn't enough. Sigh

You are so very welcome. It's a totally new ship for me and while I am sad that we won't be sailing on the Pacific (the small one) anymore, I look forward to the Coral! I hope you have a fabulous cruise!

Nice. I like not feeling crowded on the ship.

Thank you for all this great information! I think we are going to have fun wandering the ship. We sailed on the small ship (670 passengers) exclusively and are used to not having many dining options or entertainment choices. It sounds like this will offer both. Thanks to you and other Coral passengers, I'm quite excited about this upcoming trip. I only hope she will come back to the west coast one day. Fingers crossed that she comes back

Wow! What a 'balcony'! :DD We haven't seen "On the Bayou" at all, so we will check it out. Thank you for all your help and for the photo!

Sounds like fun. We're in PNG, so no locks, but I'm sure there will still be lots of beautiful ocean to see. Thank you!

I will have to hunt them down - thank you! :D

Excellent. I'm loving all that I'm hearing about it. Thanks so very much!

Ooo, A show I haven't seen 14 times. 😄 For us, she's a big ship (the Pacific only had 670 passengers). I'm looking forward to having a few more options. Thanks!

I will see what we can do for you! 😄 Thanks for all your great information.

Two things I've never done. Who knows? This might be a first for me. :DD Thanks!
