Additional details
The cruise was booked last year not long after returning from a very good Vietnam cruise on the Legend of the Seas. The line does not leave from Brisbane so it was Qantas to Sydney (business class on points) and then cab. The flight was very good and so was the food. The taxi was swift and just under $50 from mascot to the ship.
Four days before we sailed we had received news of an upgrade to cabin 1104 so everything had started off in the right direction. We arrived at around 4.00pm and had no hassles boarding, the rush was over I guess. The cabin was ready and it was a pleasant surprise with a very large balcony that, in Sydney, looked out on both the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. Surely one of the great views in cruising.
General crew notes.
Cabin Review
Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony
It was an upgrade. Great views from the stern with a very large balcony. Smallish shower but really not a drawback. Given the roughness of the trip and our not so sea worthy travelling abilities we had no sign of motion sickness. Perhaps the cabin location, deck 10 centre of the stern has something to do with it? Cabin service was superb.
Sitting in Sydney Harbour with a view over both the bridge and Opera House was special.
