**READ ALL!** Plan to be in Sydney by December 17th (you'll need to leave the US no later than December 15th). The cruise is **December 18-28th** round trip from Sydney. We will then stay together after for 5 days in Sydney in an AirBnB(s) (or hotel on your own if you choose) and fly home **January 2nd**. ***Note - Meetup won't allow me to set a longer duration so it is set to the cruise length local Sydney time.***

**You would book your own flight, cruise, and hotel** **for December 17th**. I will handle booking the post-cruise AirBnB and the NYE fireworks cruise tickets.

**NZ Cruise Info**
Right now on United Cruises, Inside Guarantee is $1014 pp based on double occupancy (no singles must be 2 ppl on the reservation...but I guess one person can "no show" at the port) plus $50 OBC. We are booking this on our own, I do not have a travel agency specifically.

**NYE Fireworks Cruise Info**
I have 11 paid tickets on the Magic for NYE fireworks in Sydney Harbor. The current ticket price is $525 (up $96 since 2020). It is a 6 hour trip, 2 fireworks shows, full buffet with seafood and beer/wine is included.

I need to get a headcount of those seriously interested in the trip. I'm going to set May 1st as the deadline to send me a **$600 deposit** if you are sharing the Airbnb after the cruise (unless you want to stay in a hotel). I will also need an additional **$96** for the NYE fireworks ticket (Alyson, me, Elena, Lety, Sylvia, Cate). For those who DON'T already have a ticket, the cost will be $525 (based on today's exchange rate). I will figure out who to refund later who's not going/already had a ticket.
