Coral Princess Around Australia March 2022
icat2000 replied to Reina del Mar's topic in Princess Cruises
Borders in Oz are closed. Prime Minister said unlikely to open in 2021 (except for bubble areas) There issues with the vaccine. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9449677/Australians-hopes-overseas-holiday-year-dashed-AstraZeneca-Covid-vaccine.html Hardly anyone has had COVID19 here and there is no herd immunity. So interesting times ahead. I would suspect Morrision will keep the borders closed until the Australian population is vaccinated before opening them up. So that might creep into 2022. -
Kiwi Kruzer has passed away :-(

So sorry to hear about the passing of David. His contribution to this forum and to cruising will be greatly missed. -
46 night 2023 seven river journey
icat2000 replied to MMDown Under's topic in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers
Lets hope the rivers levels are not down. Would be a huge let down. -
Still waiting for Princess to credit back to my account the FCC deposits. They still attached to the cancelled Pacific Princess cruise. I'm not too worried about them as if I ever book another cruise with Princess they be apply those FCC as the deposit.

Nah. Les. You can't leave. We all have our ups and downs.

I don't think that the pricing is too bad. Its got a high demand market of cruisers who love it. I want to do a WC too. I just have to wait until the right itinerary comes up on the WC. I probably only going to have one shot at dragging my partner on one. But its always been a huge bucket list goal of mine. It will do well on opening day for bookings. BTW - when is opening day for bookings. I still waiting for Princess to return my FCC back from the cancelled PNG on Pacific PRincess 😞. Still really gutted about that.
-
I feel the same. Melbourne is like an afterthought. Grand is such a tired old ship too.
-
Okay they look like the same old boring itineraries. Nothing special about the WC either!
-
CDC only applies to the USA right? Has no jurisdication outside of the USA? What if Princess are looking at resumming in another region first?

Will you cruise if vaccination is mandatory in order to board?
icat2000 replied to Thrak's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
Yes for Vaccine. No for mandatory masks. -
Except it never seems to be just five days with Victoria. This little gem hasn't been that clearly communicated ....:"The brutal five day long lockdown of the entire state of Victoria could continue for up to two weeks thanks to a sneaky detail in health directive legal papers". https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9255859/Disturbing-legal-means-Melbourne-Victoria-snap-lockdown-TWO-WEEKS.html

Just keep monitoring sites and soon as you know the release date and time. Be up and phone Princess straight away to hold a cabin or put the hold on line. You can always transfer to TA later on if you wish.
