Another Flight Question.

[ovccruiser]

Having completed our first FO cruise, Lima to Southampton, and being very pleased with the cruise, we are considering another part of a world cruise on Balmoral, Australia to Thailand. Does anyone know if that would be a Gatwick or Heathrow flight and possibly what airline?

Earlier this year I took two sectors of the "Balmoral" South America cruise. The flights to Montego Bay and home from Rio de Janeiro were on a Pullman Air Boeing 747. I had a premium seat in the upstairs cabin on both flights and found it very comfortable indeed. The on-boars service was excellent.

I agree, on the Peru to Southampton cruise we did, we flew Pulmantour and the flight was excellent, just wondered going that bit farther to Aus would be dofferent.

Now resolved, booked the cruise this morning and it's Qantas to Aus and BA from Thailand to home, now the wait begins :D

Have you been informed about the visa requirements for Ho Chi Min City.

Will FO take care of the arranging or do you have to do it yourself.

[ovccruiser]

Yes, we have read about the visa for Vietnam, we need to go to our travel agents for the second part of Australian visa, so will ask them if they can sort it for us.

[BrumBuoy]

Just been in touch with FO. FO take care of Vietnam visa for £19.

You have to get a e visa for Oss,which is free online.
