Take a lot of money. Yes, its expensive in Australia, but the expenses on the ship keep on mounting. A glass of wine $14.00.Cosmopolitan $16.00. They have taken away the 2 for 1 cocktail hour. The cost of the shore excursions is just plain ridiculous. Two ports we were in, we had to pay for a shuttle to town.
We used to get a coupon book that at least had a few coupons we could use, gone.
The art gallery ( look hard or you will miss it ) is tucked into a tiny corner by a huge photo gallery.
We booked this cruise 10 months again, 13 with princess and we got stuck with 2bunkbeds over our bed.
