What to compare with a current voyage
For this reference, compare the journey to Melbourne, Australia with your onward travel from Sydney, Australia. The listed calls at Picton, New Zealand, Marlborough Sound, New Zealand, Wellington, New Zealand provide useful points of comparison with a new itinerary. Check whether those calls, the sea days and the embarkation/disembarkation arrangements are still offered on the current sailing you choose. A different year or a similar voyage code is not evidence of the same route.
Bring the original route, your preferred dates and any cabin or suite priorities to Deluxe Cruises. Ask for a written itinerary and fare conditions for the exact current departure, including confirmed inclusions and arrangements for joining and leaving the ship.
