Fun, Family Christmas Australian/New Zealand Cruise by Safinaz

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Overall this cruise was excellent. It was just what we needed as we had not had a break in about 18 months and all work full time. We were able to catch up on some much needed rest and just enjoy being together - lots of laughs and totally relaxed by the end of the cruise. Best thing was I did not have to cook Christmas Dinner this year!

Excellent New Zealand Cruise. by johnpalmer19042

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Overall very good. The staff are attentive but photos, as expected are expensive but to have to pay $20 USD just for the digital copy and nothing else is absurd. Shore excursion is extremely overpriced in some locations.

A Great Adventure by JenskiMe2

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Regatta / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

This is now rated as one of our best cruise experiences. The Regatta was always clean, comfortable and a pleasure to come home to after a long day ashore. The service on board is excellent and we never had to wait for a table or make reservations to dine in the elegant main dining room. All the cities and towns we visited in Australia were delightful and and enlightening.

Unfortunate tragedy turned this trip into a disappointing experience by sabbies

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Ovation of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Disappointed for not visiting the Sounds and Dunedin. Only got one day refund when I feel it should have been two days refund. The captain decided to go to Picton instead but not much to do

Price Differences by Danie51

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

My Request Thanks for your explanation regarding my concerns. I would like to give you of an unfair example. I met two ladies that booked 3 months prior and paid $1,700pp (3,400) for a Balcony cabin #9242 on deck 9. I bought this to the attention of manager Alexandra. Later I was told they had noisy neighbors above them and complained to customer service. They received 2 bottles of wine and a $250pp voucher for their next cruise. This was their first Celebrity cruise compared to my 6th cruise. I paid $7,000 (same as a guest in a suit) in an Ocean cabin on deck 3. Does this feel fair Celebrity? I feel disappointed and frustrated with this kind of treatment from Celebrity. We are individuals and NOT a number!!! The least you could do is give me a $500 voucher for my next cruise. I would love to cruise on the new Edge ship in the future. Please make my day! Daniela Celebrity Response Ms. Ceccato, we realize we must earn your business by providing the best possible service both on and off the ships. Again, we are truly sorry we failed you in any way, but we must respectfully decline your request for compensation. When issues arise onboard either to the location of the stateroom with there being constant noise the situation gets reviewed by our staff onboard and it is up to their discretion if the compensate the guests for the matter. We appreciate your understanding and truly apologize if our decision causes any disappointment. Sometimes, despite our best efforts and good intentions, things do not go the way we had hoped and apologize for any displeasure experienced with this matter and our response. Should you have further queries, do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for choosing Celebrity Cruises! Kind regards, Indira Guerra • Guest Relations •

A trip before Christmas by goraro

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Second time on the Majestic Princess but last tim was around NZ where only one port was a tender port, because this cruise had three tender ports and extra bus trips to get to the destination it took away the enjoyment of going ashore but in saying that we still had a great cruise but would check the itinerary carefully before choosing this ship again

Great holiday by nannyjen

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Radiance of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

In the past the cruise line just charged our credit card at the end. But this time they charged nearly every day and that wasn't being reflected on our room statement. There was an issue with the credit card and we had trouble fixing it as the internet on the ship was woeful. Which added a bit of stress to our holiday. And then tgat ridiculous hold they put on your credit card for a week after you get home is a pain.

We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise. This is our second. Only thing we would do differently is better research on our port excursions.

Very enjoyable New Zealand Cruise by tendertoe

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Majestic Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

A very relaxing cruise, good amenities, excellent staff and fantastic food. Interesting and beautiful ports and some great photographic opportunities. The only negative was the wine tasting excursion, the bus tour driver was great but the actual wine tasting was dismal.
