"Sun Princess " Voyage SP015-An Asian Odyssey, 30 days August 15th to September 14th 2010
We flew direct to Perth with Air New Zealand, nearly 8 hours , but a nice daytime flight with good service. We then had 4 very pleasant days in Perth before joining the ship on Sunday 15th August in Fremantle.
Embarkation; was easy and quick, and no hassles. We were in our room A 616 within half an hour of arriving at wharf. Although we had been given Elite status at the end of the previous voyage, this did not show up; we saw the Captains Circle rep. Tiago and he was very helpful and had us back to Elite within an hour with its various add-ons; not the least of which is free laundry, a huge plus ! The ship had just been "re-furbished" which, like "Dawn" seemed to consist of the Movie Under the Stars screen ; and the Sanctuary( total waste of money in our ,and many others,opinion).There was new carpeting in some general areas and corridors but not much else was obvious.
