Pacific Star R808 25 Feb 08

[kiwi-cruiser]

First time cruisers, have a few questions...

How do we find out who else is cruising on same cruise? (meet n mingle board maybe plan similar shore excursions etc)

How much should we allow for on board expenses?

Where can luggage be stored for the day in Sydney after disembarking so we can check out the city for the day before catching a train to meet up with family later in the day?

I'm sure there are many other questions we will think of but that's a start

I see you have found the Pacific Star Roll Call forums: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=390 :)

How many are you going on this cruise??

I will let one of our Sydney Cruise Critic answers that question.

Ok, first of all I thought that was really weird! I thought it was one person having a conversation and answering their own questions, until I noticed the user names were slightly different! Thought I was going a bit nuts!

 

:D

You're right. The two usernames are too close for comfort. :eek: It is amazing that they let it go through.

If you are catching your train later in the day from Central Station, there are luggage lockers there. The last time we arrived back in Sydney from a cruise, we took a cab to Central station, locked up our stuff in the lockers there, did our sightseeing from there, then came back, retrieved our bags and got the train to the Airport to fly back to Brisbane.

 

Did you know you'll be on the last P&O Australia cruise of Pacific Star. After your arrival in Sydney, Pacific Star will be leaving the P&O fleet and going to Europe to join the Pullmantur fleet.

 

Look out for Pacific Sun on your last day sailing into Sydney, we will be on board sailing from Brisbane to Sydney. Both ships are scheduled to arrive in Sydney at roughly the same time, so I expect they'll be quite close on that last full sea day (7th March).
