This is a question for non USA people. I am pre cruise and have been looking at the cost in Australian Dollars for the $300USD bar tab add on. In comparing with another passenger for a re-positioning cruise in April, one of us sees $445AUD and the other $430AUD. Does the conversion that gets applied differ depending on the cruise fare paid? Any other thoughts as to why it is different (these are taken same day, so it is not because of changes in conversion rates)?
I also have an upcoming Australian cruise next month and for the bar tab, I see $485. I am not sure if Australian GST plays a role in this difference or whether because I paid a highly discounted cruise fare whether this impacts it.
