A further guide will follow for Europe-Australia voyages.

Many of our cargo ship travellers balk at travelling by cruise ship, but because of covid, there are no container ships available at present, and may not be until 2023. So, quoting Sara Macefield in Saturday’s Daily Telegraph: “Nothing can match the feeling of unalloyed joy at being at sea, or the excitement of those first few seconds as your cruise ship slowly eases away from the dock.” We think you will get our drift.
