Classic’s Princess Daphne bound for Asia
SYDNEY – Classic International will base one of its five liners, Princess Daphne, in the Far East from December 2010 to April 2011, doubling the line’s presence in the Asia-Pacific region.
A new 32-page Asia brochure for the Australian market will be released on December 17 including nine, mostly round-trip cruises aboard Princess Daphne from Singapore and Hong Kong.
Itineraries from seven to 17 nights are available with destinations including China, Japan, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Korea, Brunei, Vietnam and India’s Andaman Islands, with overnight stays planned in many ports.
The currency onboard the 500-pasenger Princess Daphne, which normally sails in Europe, will be in both Australian dollars and Euros.
Each itinerary is different and can be sailed back-to-back with a 10 per cent discount to create longer voyages.
Classic International Cruises’ Australian managing director Grant Hunter said, “The atmosphere aboard Princess Daphne and all our stylish, traditional liners deliberately reprises the traditional shipboard life of a bygone era. Our passengers love it.â€
Classic International Cruises this month begins its sixth annual summer season in Australia with its flagship, Athena, based in Perth and Adelaide.
