25.01.2022 ***2020 Cruises Update*** Hi to all of our Cruisers and our thoughts are with everyone that has been impacted with the current issues our world is facing with the COVID-19 virus. We firstly would like to express that Choose Your Cruise, Cruiseco and Artist Network Australia are following daily updates and changes to the Australian cruise industry as we navigate through this unprecedented time in our lives. We are monitoring the situation constantly however as our charters are... in the late stages of 2020 it is unknown at this current stage if the current restrictions will impact our timeline of our voyages leaving. What Choose Your Cruise can confirm is we are not cancelling our 2020 charters, and are positive that all will proceed to be the best year of music festivals at sea to date. That being said, the ultimate decision will come down to Royal Caribbean’s ships, plain and simple answer is if the ships are operating then all cruises will proceed as planned. Below we will list your options for those unsure of what they want to do and we are working collaboratively to offer the best for our passengers. We will know more as time goes on and is our pledge to keep everyone fully informed as any new information becomes available. We reiterate again, Choose Your Cruise the charterers of the voyages will not be cancelling the charters on our end - the only situation where the 2020 cruises do not take place is of Royal Caribbean do not offer the ships available for deployment/use and passenger boarding (and/or the passenger gathering restrictions stay in effect past September). We urge everyone to work with us during this time and that whilst not ideal, the situation is changing daily and we will know more to put minds at ease as time goes on. Further to this, many passengers are looking for clarification regarding the 2020 cruises and contingencies in place: Cruiseco and Choose your Cruise are pleased to announce our Music Assurance Program for our 2020 Music Cruises. Whilst little to no cancellations have been received, we wanted to ensure you had piece of mind regarding these sailings you have booked on. This new policy provides you (our passengers) with the confidence to pay the balance of their 2020 Music Cruise and the opportunity review their plans once full payment has been made. Once full payments have been made the client has the option to review their travel plans between 90 and 60 days prior to departure and receive a 100% Future Cruise Credit (FCC) valid on the soon to be released 2021 Music Cruises. Between 59 days and 45 Days prior to departure 50% cancellation fee then applies. Less the 45 days prior to departure 100% cancellation fee then applies. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to your travel agent representative or email [email protected] All the best Choose Your Cruise & Cruiseco team

23.01.2022 Hello cruisers! In this difficult time for our cruising & travel industry, we thank you all for your continued support (and patience) around our music themed cruising here in Australia for 2020. We are working closely with organizing bodies both home and abroad, exploring all potential avenues and options to bring clarity to you all regarding the 2020 cruises status in coming weeks. In order to help you manage this, Choose Your Cruise (CYC) have taken the decision that no boo...kings would be auto-cancelled for non-payment of this next instalment or final payments. All the best CYC team

23.01.2022 Together, 2021.

20.01.2022 **A SPECIAL MESSAGE TO ALL MUSIC CRUISERS** We here at Choose Your Cruise are an Aussie family-owned and operated music cruise company. For over 10 years we have strived to show world-wide Australia is the leaders in music festivals at sea, providing a bucket list holiday experience unlike any other. We believe in supporting live music, artists and songwriters connecting with passionate music loving passengers/fans for an up-close and personal artist-to-fan experience which c...annot be replicated anywhere else. Together you have changed the cruise industry since 2010 with us, taking part in over 35 full-ship Choose Your Cruise Music Cruises. That is over 70,000 passengers and over 300+ international and Australian artists over the years... time flies when you're having fun right? As Australians we exude the Aussie battler spirit - Those who persevere despite adversity, which we feel is our company responsibility now more than ever, to take the lead offering hope and potential for getting back to normal doing what we all love best... Cruising and making memories with the ones we love. The world is doing it tough right now and like many, our company is no doubt greatly impacted by what is happening in the world right now, ultimately leading to our unavoidable decision to postpone the 2020 music cruise charters. But together we are strong, together with you our passenger family we push forward towards brighter days on the horizon with the newly announced Rock & Country SUPER CRUISE. If you have booked on our initially planned 2020 cruises, you have various options for you to either transfer your cruise credit toward 2021/2022 or a full-refund (please communicate with your travel agents/check your inboxes if you are yet to receive any communications). One way or another we hope we can share our Music Cruise experience with you all down the line, be in in 2021 or beyond. Each and all of you are our cruise family. In coming weeks we will be posting many videos and content to remind us all in these challenging times the good times over the years on board and push towards creating new memories on-board the SUPER CRUISE in 2021. The term 'Choose Your Cruise' has never been more relevant as you choose your headline concert experience (Country or Rock) with all other supporting artists performing around the ship free for all, giving even more bands/performances to experience, in more venues, on Australia's largest and most luxurious ship - the Ovation of the Seas. We would love for you to join us next year for a cruise for the ages! Visit www.supercruise2021.com.au for more info (full website released soon stay tuned). We thank you for supporting our family business over the years and with the thousands of music cruise family members Australia-wide, we are more driven, motivated and passionate than ever about what we do...

Unfortunately, it was at this time Cruisin' Country 2020 was planned to be in full swing with cocktails, music, and amazing times on the south pacific sea with friends family and loved ones. 2020 has certainly been a memorable year but not as we had all hoped but we are positive, optimistic, and more passionate about our passengers and giving you the most incredible cruise experience into the future than ever before!

We are preparing some video content to post across our social media in the coming days/weeks to reflect on the amazing memories we have all shared over the years and would like you all to be part of that! If you would like to be included in any of these videos we are looking for the following: - Record a short video (it can be on your smartphone) It can be a message of positivity how music cruises have given you fond memories and great times over the years/any specific favorite memories you have - It can also be a message of hope that we will all get over COVID and be back doing what we love cruising together and being one big cruise family once again on the horizon - You may wish to simply share why cruising is important to you - NOTE* Please record the video in landscape-mode and speak clearly, without any background noise If interested in submitting a video you may do so by emailing it through to [email protected] (please include your full names if you wish to be credited in the video too) The goal here is to really connect with people online and spread some positivity of the cruise sector and music cruising as we rebuild and lead the way in Australian tourism to get back to living the best years of our lives!
