Hello,

Looking for further train information. We arrive from the USA in Sydney on a Tuesday morning and will spend the day in Sydney before taking the train to Katoomba for a one night stay in the Blue Mountains. Then we will return to Sydney late Wednesday afternoon for a night stay in Sydney and then take the train back to the Airport on Thursday morning for a flight to Cairns. Is there a hotel near the train station you would recommend for Wednesday night? Is there a special rail pass that would meet our local and regional needs over the 3 days in Sydney/Blue Mountains?

Thank you,

Katherine

Good Morning,

I am looking for some advice on applying gift cards and certificates to an existing booking. Next March, I am taking a trip of a lifetime to Australia/New Zealand and booked the Celebrity cruise portion 15 months in advance...I am a planner!!

A little background - In the meantime, I left my former employer after 10 years of service for a great new opportunity. In honor of my service and for my love of travel they gave me a Celebrity Cruise Gift Card and a Gift Certificate to use on my travels. However, when I called Celebrity to apply them to my booking, I was told they can only be applied to a new booking and can't be used for onboard credit. Has anyone else heard this or have a work around?

My outside travel agent that booked the trip is calling Celebrity directly too but didn't know if there was anything else I should be trying. I am desperate to use these gifts on this trip for the thoughtfulness and I honestly don't know when I will be on Celebrity again.

Thank you in advance for your advice,

Katherine

We look forward to more reviews of the Bridge Climb too. Does anyone know if there are ever discounts available for these climbs?

On previous trips and even this upcoming trip to Australia/New Zealand, I have subscribed to the local Groupon and Living Social sites for additional discount opportunities. Didn't know if there were other sites I should be monitoring for disounts, especially for the climb.

Thank you,

Katherine
