More bad news on Sea Princess

I am so sorry you missed NZ,.:(

If Princess had played it straight right from the start it would have been much better for so many more people,yourself included. The ship had limped around Australia, NZ and south asia for several months missing ports on nearly every cruise before they sorted the issue out. Very disappointing for so many.

Thanks for the empathy! I'd been reading about the "limping" for a while and hoped that we'd "limp" around, too :). Princess did the right thing and refunded our cruise, plus gave us a cruise credit in the same amount.

 

Oh Fern. I am so sorry to read this. You did heaps of research in the Aus/NZ port of call area. :( I remember your posts! Please come back & have another attempt in the future. I can only imagine how disappointed you must be.

We loved Sydney (we stayed at the Ibis, Darling Harbour) and Brisbane (at the Mercure, King George Square). We had a wonderful time and one of the major attractions was how wonderful the Aussie people were :)! Friendliness must be number one on the list of "how to be an Aussie!".

 

P.S.(I DID have the right adapter for our electronics :))!

 

I hope we'll be able to visit Australia again,

And we hope you can too Plant!!

Thanks for the pic, looks a bit stormy/overcast or is it the cam giving that impression.

Agreed, hopefully after an incident free cruise, they will get that.:D

Seem to be more pessimists than optimists here, so not sure it would last as long. ;)

Yay!!! *happy dance* ;)

 

Such a shame you missed out on NZ. Was there no way you could have flown over there and done a bus tour or something, rather than just going home disappointed?

yes ..Its a bit cloudy. Its the tail end of that wild storm that hit Sydney earlier in the week.

 

 

We took the sting out of it though :D

 

 

Arriving in Wellington as I post....spot on schedule for 9 am.
