Hi, the changes that you have said have always been included on this cruise so I have not known any different. I love days at sea so more the merrier. Sam

Hi, thanks for the warning , what were the cahnges Sam

Hi, sorry been away on Holidays and just realised that I hadnt been on in a while. No no stopovers, we have extended for a couple of days pre cruise and we have added on a wek at the end in Australia. Soo looking forward to it all now. Sam

hope you had a great time? Finally sorted out the flights for the trip, Emirates BC very nice Sam

Hi,, we are going to Benidorm! Can you believe it. We thought about looking at houses on the Costa Blanca to buy so a holiday to Benidorm seemed an ok thing to do, well we changed our minds oon buying again in Spain, but still have th holiday to Benidorm. This all hangs o nthe othter half getting his passport back intime. Sam

Australia visa done, that was easy!!!!!

We have cancelled the trip to france as we felt that we couldnt trust Easyjet not to cancel when we were there. So we have booked with Jet2 Holidays as they have their own staff and appear not to be cancelling holidays. Still wating on flights for the trip, tried to move them along but the company is having trouble securing flights this far our and they wont do a full payment flight as they have said they wont take the risk. Visas, I was not aware tht we needed them????? What do we need to do? Speak soon Sam

Been on the QM2 a couple of times on the Southampton - NYC trip, very nice, got upgrades the second time. Used it as a slow crossing to do a mega USA tour, a leisurely way to travel to the states.

Really looking forwarsd to meeting you guys. Yes I am sure we will know lots of mutal people that we have both worked with . I was based out of Bushy so not at the National offices in Liecester. Sam

Can't believe this, how fab that you are coming to stay with us. I am not sure that I know Ian after all as I left in 2008 right at the begining of the Europcar take over. (National) it will be really good to meet up. We also cannot wait for the time to pass to be off on our holidays to The South Pacific and NZ and Australia. Look forward to seeing you In September. Sam & Huw

Hi Guys , Glad to see there are some other friends on board, it was getting lonely on here, lol

Hi, Thanks for the kind words on the Hotel. The other part is even more interesting though, we are also from Bristol and still have a home there in Clifton, I also have a Car rental background with Europcar. I was with them from 1994 through to 2008 and was laterly in sales and head of Bussiness Travel and corporate accounts, there must be no doubht that I must know Ian, can I ask what his surname is. Mine is Prosser, Sam Prosser Sydney sounds fab, you must be so excited. sam & Huw

Hi, NYE in Sydney, fantastic. Our Hotel, www.oldrectoryhotel.co.uk if you watch the video it will give you a flavour. Sam

Hi, good to hear from you, sorry for the late reply, we own and run a Hotel and we are super busy with very little time to ourselves. The Beyond sounds fab, we were thinking of the infinity Veranda as friends who are coming with us have not cruised beofre and we thought that it would be the best bet, however i can see what you mean about walking out. Not been to Sitges can you believe it. Recently been going to a nice little resort in Gran Canaria in the winters as we are closed from late October until late March, we stay at a place called Villas Blancas, really friendly. I keep counting the days until we go on our cruise, we have been plaquing the company who are booking our flights to get on with it as the prices keep rising and rising, however they are determined to wait to get a better price once the flight scheduels have increased and the panick buys have settled down. We are off to the South Of France in August for 9 to a little Place called the Lotus Tree, so looking forward to the break already. Speak soon. Sam & Huw

Its the Beyond, thats why I was asking whats its like. ABC great nice islands.

Hi, Two guys here from the UK joining this cruise, we are staying on from the prior cruise to Fiji and Samoa etc. Really looking forward to seeing New Zealad on this whisle stop tour so we can decide if we would like to come back and spend a longer period of time here in the future. Also looking forward to what Sydney has to offer, we are there 10 days once the cruise ends. Look forward to meeting new friends on the cruise Sam & Huw
