Diamond Princess 23rd December 2013 to 4th January 2014 Auckland to Sydney
Embarkation
The Auckland cruise terminal was very efficient. Check in and embarkation was quick and smooth. Being relative early around 11.00am we had an easy and flawless passage, being on ship within 45 minutes. The cabin was ready as soon as we boarded the ship and our steward was an absolute delight.
The wardrobe has plenty of space and the under bed storage fitted our suitcases without any problems. The soundproofing is very good, the bed very comfortable, but we did have to ask for better pillows. The old ones were past their prime.
