Onward is finally on her way to Barcelona after a 22 hour delay. Apparently the problem was a propulsion pod. All fixed now.

We managed to get an upgrade from V1 to CC for $100 a night in January this year on our New Zealand Cruise.

I understand 20% FCC to mean 20% of the price you paid for the cruise you are on,given as an amount in £s,in the form of a credit note to use on a future cruise. The 20% would only be calculated on the cruise element and not the port taxes,etc.

Sailing on Edge in a concierge cabin and Note reads you need to book an early check in time before you board. Is 1pm ok as this was the earliest available when I checked in online. Where is this lunch held and what is the protocol?

Also Azamara Quest.

And Azamara Quest, they are having their hull cleaned today after missing two ports.

Azamara Quest sailing 4th January from Melbourne has had 2 stops cancelled. She is currently heading to Sydney next stop should have been Eden then over to Milford Sound, both cancelled. She will be having the hull cleaned on 10-11th January then hopefully arrived in Dunedin on 12th but later than scheduled.

Azamara Quest has also joined this debacle as her sailing from Melbourne on 4th has had first two ports axed due hull cleaning, one was Milford Sound.

Yes the Azamara Quest sailing 4th January has had Eden and Milford Sound cancelled for hull cleaning. It will also arrive later than scheduled into Dunedin to accommodate this. Hope they get the job done quickly as the rest of it’s ports of call are in NZ.

As Milford Sound is your first port in New Zealand on your cruise I can see that it has to be done or all other ports would be closed to you 😬 Hopefully by the time we board on 21st all will plain sailing
