Its too early for me, but this might appeal to some of you who are allowed into Queensland and are willing to take the risk.

Soak up the breathtaking natural beauty of Queensland's magical Whitsundays with a four-night cruise onboard P&O's impressive Pacific Explorer. Depart from Brisbane on 15 December 2020 and cruise in style to the dreamy Whitsunday Islands, witnessing the spectacular Great Barrier Reef, stopping at striking Airlie Beach and spotting incredible marine wildlife along the way. Enjoy all meals and fantastic entertainment onboard, all included in your package.

Don't forget to pack some masks, swabs and plenty of sanitiser.

    Imagine being quarantined in a room with no windows with 3 other people for 14 days. If you really want to go for a cruise then I'd recommended going AT LEAST for a twin balcony room, at least it would be less unbearable if you have to quarantine for 14 days.

      This doesn't make sense, it's intrastate travel and not even interstate travel. Assuming QLD remains good with COVID control, quarantine shouldn't be a bigger risk than going to Schoolies.

    2. Social distancing laws don't apply once in international waters ….. wait…. something is not right
    3. 5 Days/4 Nights only $299…. wait…………….. come back 14 nights in 5 hotel ($3000+ extras)*

    Okay NO DEAL.

    Even if anyone was interested in this (which seems unlikely), I would be looking to book direct with P&O rather than through Scoopon. Haven't read any terms and conditions for it, but the chances of getting a refund out of Scoopon if the situation changes seems poor at best.

      Most of their potential customers will be people who had their cruises cancelled due to covid, and now have 'cruise credit' to use up. No sense giving them a discount, they're already on the hook

  • Yaren24 on 20/07/2020 - 15:56

    Nice try, see how many idiots will jump in the fire pits.

    P&O should focus more on healthcare services rather than milking people. US used cruises as hospitals, they could do that too.

    • odysseus on 20/07/2020 - 16:11

      They offered to do that straight up here.

      Aus politicians who were keen to conjure blame to the cruises, didn't think it would be a good look to then choose to use them.

      • Yaren24 on 20/07/2020 - 16:39

        Sorry I didn't know about that, it would be a good idea to cross and help this country. We should be more of supportive if they do additional health services when our public and private hospitals are not holding all the patients. It comes to me feel that medicare needs to be changed as well.

        • odysseus on 21/07/2020 - 02:05

          P&O do give quite a bit to Australia.

          Just a month or so before they were evicted, they gave a $50,000 cheque to support bushfire relief for those affected over Dec/Jan. And when the tourist communities reopened, they were there e.g. Eden straight away to boost tourism to those regions that wanted them.

          And even when they were locked down in Shellharbour they were giving care packets from the ship to locals who had lost jobs or were locked up, and the local community gave them a warm send off as a result.

          The only real negativity has come from the politicians throwing blame to deflect from their own department mistakes. And sensationalist parts of the media jump in for their own reasons.

    • INFIDEL on 20/07/2020 - 18:05

      I'd say they know their loyal (mainly older) market. Saw some being interviewed, saying they couldn't wait to get on board again.

      Check back closer to cruise date for any bargains. In this Deal, Scoopon is taking it's cut.

  • voteoften on 20/07/2020 - 18:17

    I cruise A LOT. I can almost guarantee you this cruise will not go forward. Between scoopon and P&O, you could have difficulty getting cash back, rather than a scoop on or P&O credit if the cruise does not go forward. There will be plenty of offers once cruising actually does go ahead.

  • Drakesy on 20/07/2020 - 18:42

    Government surely won't let this go ahead. Who's going to foot the bill when they end up with another floating cesspool filled with pensioners.
    P&O should just write off 2020 as a loss.

    If pensioners choose to go back on this (and it seems they "can't wait" to go cruising again) it undoes all the hard work the rest of Australia has been doing for them, the at risk age group. 20 and 30 year old's staying at home aren't doing it for themselves.

    I just don't understand the logic. They have a pension, house, everything and still think it's acceptable to go cruising…

    • odysseus on 21/07/2020 - 02:06

      Erm, lots of 20 and 30 year olds also go on cruises. Especially P&O.

    Wow! I can't believe they are selling tickets to their floating petrie dishes so soon!

    Everytime i think certain industries or companies could not be more greedy, they outdo themselves with flying colours.

    No consideration for speading the virus from port to port. Only one person on board needs to have it and days later everyone will.

    Greed and profit before human safety.
