  1. I’ve used P2 a few times and it’s very close to the terminal but it’s outside and no cover
  2. Only good doing that if you don’t have much luggage and time to spare
  3. You can get a senior Opal card at Central station showing your pension/ seniors card but must use a credit/debit card for payment
  4. Thanks Cheryle and I hope it’s still going mid September
  5. I’m not sure Virgin still operate that service from Sydney, I came off a cruise late March and it wasn’t operating and I’ve heard comments from FB it wasn’t operating but I’ll find out mid September when I come off my cruise flying home
  6. You can use your OBC with casino & bingo but never tried medical
  7. You can pay for the cruise in AUD and once onboard the currency will be US and gratuities are added onto the fare but you could pre pay them when you book
  8. If you do a cruise to the South Pacific you need mandatory travel insurance
  9. Have you had a quote from Qantas , they seem ok but not sure about PE
  10. Did you click on the files at the top of the page about the info and I copied this information where to order Kina and they bring to the cruise terminal Crown currency Aspley has a very limited supply of Kina ready for your cruise on xxxxx. We are offering pre paid orders to be collected at the Brisbane International cruise terminal on the day of departure. First in best dressed so call or email us today to secure your kina. (07) 3263 3088 or email aspley@crowncurrency.com.au i believe they do a buy back of Kina that’s over when you get back to Brisbane but confirm with them if you buy off them Bob
  11. If you do Facebook if you put cruise PNG into the search bar and join the group they have a wealth of information there and where to get Kina
  12. Cheryle we stopped at Eden with the Grand Princess in March and everything was ok but we were on the Quantum in February and they changed the itinerary to head north to Airlie beach from Brisbane so the dock may not be able to take Ovation and Quantum so the Brilliance must be ok
  13. Nothing p&o can do if the people couldn’t get to the port on time and that’s why you fly in the day before and factor a hotel stay in your budget and take out travel insurance
  14. Hi Cheryle if you cruise with Carnival you can’t check in until 14 days before and it opens up at midnight so if you stay up you can pick the first boarding time which is 11.30-12.00 and if things are running smoothly you may board earlier
  15. Everyone has a different opinion and I was on the Splendor mid May and I found the food very nice in the Black Pearl for anytime dining and the MDR for breakfast and even the shows were good at night
  16. Hi Anna yes I’m at Beenleigh now and been here for about 18 months , bit warmer than down South and I’ve cruises from the new terminal quite a few times and it’s nice , bit of a walk once you go thru security when you cruise from Brisbane will you drive down and park at the terminal
  17. What is “Crew Appreciation”?A crew appreciation is a daily amount added to your onboard account, which is shared among the many members of our crew in hotel, dining and entertainment throughout the fleet who help make your cruise experience special. The daily amount of the Crew Appreciation is based on stateroom category. Crew Appreciation only applies to cruises not departing from/returning to Australia
  18. Anna I have used Qantas and they were ok for me but sorry no luck for you
  19. If the cruise is going to or from the US the premier package does not mention gratuities are included so it looks like they are an added expense unless you remove them 🙂 cruises to Asia and cruises to and from Australia are included
  20. Anna have you had a look at Qantas insurance and they cover for 80+ also covid cover
  21. We were supposed to stop at Eden on the Quantum from Brisbane late February and they changed the itinerary to sail to Airlie beach doing a 5 nighter with an overnight stay at Airlie
  22. Someone who’s onboard posted on FB said there was a couple smoking in bed and they’ll be interviewed by the police today and a news crew to interview the passengers
