The motto of our government seams to be 'Too little too late' nothing like throwing in the towel when thing get hard ( could be a shortage of towels ) Don..... remember carry your towel Towel :- Within the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy universe, towels are regarded as indispensable equipment for experienced travelers, since they can be put to a wide variety of uses. Consequently, a person who can quickly adapt to virtually any new situation is said to know where their towel is. They're too busy pointing fingers to check for towels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted August 26, 2021 #227 Share Posted August 26, 2021 If Carnival/Princess gets hammered financially in this action, they might not even send any ships here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that costs regarding the Ruby Princess debacle will impact on a decision to send ships to Aust/NZ. This was a very important markets for all cruise lines.

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted August 26, 2021 #230 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Princess gave clear signals that they are committed to the Australian market when they altered the itineraries of cruises leaving after 19th December that went to South Pacific ports, making them Australia-only ports. To me that indicated that, at that time, Princess had good reason to believe cruising would restart here, otherwise they would have left those itineraries as they were originally to be cancelled eventually. Of course the current outbreaks, especially in NSW, may mean they'll get cancelled anyway. 😥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Traveller Posted August 26, 2021 #231 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I believe Princess will re-enter the Australian cruising market when the Australian government allows it. It was too important to them for the company to just ditch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
