Vancouver cruise to Sydney, Australia with Princess Cruises
The total cost for an interior stateroom is $8,732.48, which works out to $4,366.24 per person including all taxes and fees.
Since the cruise is 31 days long, the price works out to a per diem cost of about $140.85 including all taxes and fees.
While that price tag might seem steep, the cost of even just one week for an all-inclusive stay in a resort in Mexico for a couple of weeks typically costs upwards of $1,500 to $2,000.
Not only does that cost include your transportation on a beautiful five-star vessel, but it also includes meals, entertainment, snacks, and lodging. The only thing it doesn’t factor in is alcohol, but you may opt to purchase a drink package that can reduce your spending.
The ship is the five-star Majestic Princess, which offers swimming pools, hot tubs, a live theatre, a basketball court, mini-golf, renowned spa treatments, movies under the stars, a jogging track, and much more.
Vancouver flights to Australia are notoriously costly. However, you can use this clever to save on the cost of your return ticket back to Vancouver International Airport (YVR) from Sydney.
