400: Sun and Dawn new sectors - 2009 Solstice and Equinox Med sailings open for sale

Issue 400 | 19 June 2008

Hi Cruisers,

As I was out last week, thanks to Kristy from marketing for doing the newsletter... I think she did a sterling job in my place.

I made a mistake a couple of editions ago. It was regarding our Private Kimberly Charter next year. We only have 13 suites left for sale and we've sold two this week! So if you are looking at joining us or have friends that are thinking about it, better get in while you can. It's going to be a great trip and we have a great group of people coming.

The Aussie Dollar has rebounded a little this week with it hovering around .946, but it's the oil price that's killing the world economy and why is it so expensive? Supply and demand they say, well, I think we have the supply they are just controlling the price and making as much out of us while they can, when are they going to invest and offer an alternative?!.

Just in are four, great fly/cruise and stay packages on Sun and Dawn Princess to and from Hawaii. They include onboard credits as well!
