Yes you can complete this on board.

Transit visa can be organised online before boarding, or the crew will assist you via your smart phone once onboard.

We loved our voyage through Suez and the Red Sea a few months back. I hope you get to go. There are a lot of anti pirate measures in place.

Yes

As I recently enjoyed a bout of Covid on board QE, I assume the procedure is the same on all ships: After my husband tested positive, I contacted the medical centre. As he had symptoms for 2 days before testing positive he was asked to remain in the cabin for a further 3 days - so 5 days from symptoms. While I tested negative I was free to roam the ship. And the same process applied to me once I tested positive. It’s basically an honour system and no further tests were administered by the medical staff. Paxlovid anti viral medication plus consultation was US$ 900. Daily restaurant menus were supplied and food delivered hot and on proper crockery / cutlery. Breakfast via door knob card. Library books, fresh fruit, fresh linen, anything within reason was delivered. Laundry was free. Once the medical team advised quarantine was over the room was fumigated and the steward allowed to enter.

8pm and 10pm

Yes

Many people had coughs, the medical staff said there was a moderate amount of Covid aboard, but not enough to be described as an outbreak. The requirement is for 5 days cabin quarantine from the date of the first symptoms. Would have been happy to remain longer if we had been in good health.

Back in humid tropical Queensland and on the mend, thank you @Host Hattie. Regardless it really was a wonderful cruise.

I have posted a review of our recent 34 night cruise Barcelona to Melbourne in Balcony cabin 8128, happy to answer any questions if I can. https://www.cruisecritic.com.au/memberreviews/memberreview.cfm?EntryID=709258

Yes to all. As I say, they were wonderful. (Anti viral medication including Dr consultation $900 US FYI.) it’s a risk we take when we travel.

Yes. Superb journey. Although we have been pretty sick on this voyage (Covid, flu, bronchitis) so looking forward to getting home for a check up. Cunard have been wonderful of course.

En route for Melbourne and disembarking tomorrow after 5 weeks at sea for some of us

In fact all visas could have waited until boarding.

Thank you @bluemarble the Resilient Lady nicked the berth at Benoa so the Queen Elizabeth is tendered, facing Nusa Dua beach
