Went on the Pacific Aria up to Cairns and Hamilton Island. The staff on the cruise were among the happiest bunch of people I have ever met. Happy to help with anything you ask. There was plenty of entertainment and there was never a time where you were bored. Patience is key when travelling on the cruise, as there is over 1000 passengers on most cruises it is imperative that you do not become frustrated when disembarking to different ports. I would definitely recommend the drinks package to all passengers. I would definitely recommend going on a shorter cruise like a 7 day one just to see whether it is right for you. Be sure to take Kwells with you as the seas can become quite rough at times. The cruise is great if you have kids because you can simply let them go and the parents can enjoy there own time. If you can it is much better if you take your close friends as it can provide more entertainment. Overall the cruise was extremely enjoyable made better by the staff.
