The good news is that things in the US are cheap (compared to Australia), the bad news is the currency conversion erodes any of those savings you may have been banking on.

 

Depends what you buy, but not sure they're even cheap. E.g. bread is US4.50 for a smaller loaf, apples about USD4 for half a kilo... then add conversion and they're way more.

Thanks, I have been looking for a cheap cruise and boy did I find one,  Just booked Interior Guarantee 8 nights 10 February for $490 pp.  Thought it was a misprint but have confirmation and paid.  Live in Brisbane so have the cost of getting to Sydney also have never had an interior but for that price, will find out. Booked with cruising out of oz, all other sites were $735  and higher.  I have checked Carnival and booking is there. Bonus $50 credit plus I will get $100 military credit. Interior cabin out of Sydney here we come.

That really good buying. Unfortunately, I could cruise, but my partner wouldn't get time off especially since we cruising NYE. I need to wait to late March-April or early May.

That's probably the best price I've seen that wasn't a misprint. Congratulations.

 

I'd be joining you except that I already have a Feb cruise.

We are doing a three nighter at Easter, don’t remember the exact figures, we have three cabins booked, but I know our balcony was less than we paid for two night on Solstice last year.
