17.01.2022 "Well What A Week" Where do o start ? Get out of bed tuesday morning to fly to Brisbane and to cruise back to Sydney on #Artania by Phoenix Reisen. Only to be not be able walk and be in excruciating pain. ... Ambulace called and off to hospital. I am still in hospital, but atleast i have my #Markwebber #aussiegrit book to read ! Then on Thursday the 12th of March i was meant to attend a media event on #Pacificexplorer with lunch by #Lukemangan and a tour onboard to show what had been done on #Pacificexplorer from her referbishment in #Singapore. Having not seen the referbishment of #Pacificexplorer what i can say is what i have experianced in #Saltgrill by #Lukemangan is: ' Salt Grill ' by Luke Mangan, what an experience ! This is the reason why with ALL our cruises with P&O Cruises Australia, that we have eaten at the Sophisticated yet very affordable 'Salt Grill ' by Luke Mangan. P&O Cruises Australia along with Luke Mangan and his work ethic, dedication and inspiration are giving Australian cruisers a taste of modern Australia, in a sophisticated environment. The food is fresh sometimes unique in the way it is presented to you at the table. But all in all it is sublime! With the ambiance of the restaurant, it's bringing restaurant dining to a new level for Australian cruisers. And then you cannot forget the friendliness of the staff, where every dish is brought to your table with a wonderful smile and great service. At $59pp for Dinner and $49pp for Lunch, how can anyone not give this superb and sophisticated restaurant a go ?? To Luke Mangan and P&O Cruises Australia outstanding, this why I have never missed dining in ' Salt Grill ' everytime I have cruised with P&O Cruises Australia.

There looks like options for longer sailings or short sections of the longer sailings like samplers within a voyage. So in Belle Goldies eyes this to her confirms that Spectrum will be offering consumer salings !!! Thanks to the source who provided Belle Goldie with this information . The dates are also shown below . #spectrumoftheseas #sydneyharbour #sydney #Royalcarribean_aunz @royalcaribbean_aunz @cruiselegend @shipsinsydney @CruisingPeter @CruiseMiss @CruiseCrazies @CLIAAustralsia
05.01.2022 Well yesterday the 31st of October 2019 was day 5 of #Explorerdream Southern Queensland cruise. The port of #Mooloolaba Queensland is a very beautiful part of the world. With many cafes and eateries and shops that make this area unique in many ways.... #Moolooaba beach was spectacular and the weather was absolutely stunning! The only downside was #Sealifemooloolaba which shut there doors at 3pm on a day when 1500 guests by cruise ship arrive ( go figure ). To there credit they did open their doors to let me in an explore the aquarium. There were no shuttle buses into the town of #Mooloolaba, come on #Dreamcruises please lift your game you need to start listing to your guests. #Dreamcruises #ExplorerDream @Dreamcruises
04.01.2022 An open letter to the media: Back off, get your facts straight and stop whipping up hysteria about cruise ships. A completely new phase of Turn Back The Boats which is bordering on immoral. All ships out there off the coast only have crew. The last ship disembarked all guests in Sydney around 20 March. Most ships also disembarked a number of crew around the same time to head back to their home county, however a number of crew are needed on board to maintain the ship and ke...ep it operational. They (ships) are here because they were based (home porting) here at the time, and anticipate resuming their operations here when this all blows over. And according to CLIA, the sector contributed over $5 billion to the economy last year. That’s over $5,000,000,000. The problem for Ruby Princess and some of the Royal Caribbean ships is that Covid-19 has been brought onboard at some stage - more than likely by a guest who has gotten through the screening process a number of weeks ago when they boarded. It should be said they likely were not aware of - or not showing - symptoms at the time, however there are now still residual effects on some crew from the spread of the virus on board. Unfortunately with this virus in an enclosed space, it easily spreads as we have seen on ships, at weddings, social gatherings, sporting events and the like. The question is, given the worldwide shutdown and closure of ports, where are these ships supposed to go? Particularly if there are illnesses on board, are we just to say bugger off and fend for yourselves? Do we simply treat them like people smugglers and "turn back the boats"? Certainly the politicians and media are doing their best to whip up a storm, which I think is leaning towards an approach completely lacking in morality.. Thank You Matt Halloran for your brave words that the Media should take note of.
