404: Red Hot Diamond Princess packages for this coming summer!

Issue 404 | 17 July 2008

Hi Cruisers,

I had a dream last night that Royal Caribbean positioned a brand new ship in Sydney! In the dream I ask RCCL what the ship was like and they said "how do I know, it's brand new"! So, lets hope my dream comes true and we do see a new RCCL ship here. If the US economy continues to melt, we might see one here sooner rather than later.

I think we are OK as a Nation, our banking rules are much stronger than that of the US. Good news for the Aussie dollar as it went through 25 year highs yesterday. Great time to travel to the US, check out our North American packages, we have 288 to choose from!
