Issue 431 | 29 January 2009


Hi Cruisers,

I'm still filling in for Brett, though I spoke to him yesterday from New York and he told me they were expecting snow over there. What a difference to the weather we're having here in Sydney!

HOT OFF THE PRESS - We have just received two fantastic last minute rates for Arcadia's World Cruise Sectors to Asia. The first is a 21 night package for only $2,649 which includes your direct one-way Qantas airfare home, a night in Hong Kong and Port/Govt taxes, departing from Sydney on 21 February. Click here for more

Or, you may choose to stay another 8 nights on Arcadia and continue cruising to Singapore. This 29 night package includes your direct Qantas airfare home and Port/Govt taxes and a night at the Fairmont Singpore for only $3,299 - Click here. As you can imagine spaces are limited, so get in quick!

Also just in, two great P&O Pacific Dawn offers with free upgrades. Simply book an Inside cabin and be upgraded to an Oceanview! (Subject to availability). Sailing from Sydney on 4 June, our first offer is a 12 night package to Papeete from $1,899 including one night at the InterContinental Resort Tahiti, a one-way Qantas airfare home and Port/Govt taxes.

The return trip from Papeete to Sydney has also been heavily discounted and comes with the same upgrade offer. Starting from $2,799, it's a 19 night package also including one night at the InterContinental Tahiti, your one-way Qantas airfare from Sydney to get started, and Port/Govt taxes.

What you've been telling us it that you want great value for your next cruise holiday. So, this week I've chosen a selection of our best Asia cruise packages and listed them in our Specials below, click here for more. There are a lot of inclusions in there to make your holiday great because after all, it's the little things that make the difference! Of particular note, we've extended our "Second Night Free" offer available in a number of Bangkok packages at the amazing Banyan Tree Bangkok for a few more days.

Pandaw River Cruises have just released some very unique river expedition itineraries through India. My pick is our 14 night package sailing between Calcutta and Varanasi on the Ganges and Hugli rivers. Starting from $6949, this includes your return airfare with Thai Airways, gratuities and Port/Govt taxes. This package really is something different, so if you're looking for something to tell your friends about click here for more!
