New Launches Carnival Breeze

MSC Divina

Celebrity Reflection

On Carnival Breeze, you'll find everything there is to love about a Carnival "Fun Ship," in a whole new setting. You know how much better a pool is when you're surrounded by the ocean, how much better the food tastes when there's literally tons of it to choose from, and how much more fun the kids have when they're spending time making new friends (and you, when they're keeping busy!). Yes, that's our promise to you, and that's what Carnival Breeze delivers.

Look out for the new goddess of the seas. MSC Divina, named in honour of screen legend and MSC Cruises “godmother” Sophia Loren, will be christened in Marseille in May 2012.

Modelled on her sister-ships, MSC Splendida and MSC Fantasia she features some remarkable enhancements.

Once Celebrity Reflection completes our Solstice class in 2012, you'll have another spectacular choice for cruising.

Relax like never before in one of the 34 new AquaClass Suites with luxurious interior space and stunning verandas.

Carnival Breeze will be launched in June 2012 and she will sail for the summer from Venice to Barcelona and vice versa and reposition to the Caribbean for Winter 2012.

The gorgeous Infinity Pool in the aft of the ship, with its “beach zone” adjoining the glass balustrade, offers a unique view of the ship’s wake fading into the magnificent sunset.

MSC Divina will sail around the Eastern Mediterranean from Venice taking in wonderful ports such as Istanbul Turkey & Dubrovnik Croatia.

www.sunway.ie

There are even more inspired additions to this ship. Celebrity Reflection has expanded with an additional deck, 72 additional staterooms overall, and more seating in the main and specialty dining rooms, more sun loungers on the pool deck and more seats in theater.

Time aboard Celebrity Reflection will make the most of it.

Short Cruises A short cruise can be the perfect solution if you're short on time but want a luxury break or if you've never cruised before and want a taster of what cruising is all about. A short cruise (a cruise of less than seven nights at sea), takes you to explore two or three destinations in a short space of time, without having to worry about luggage or timetables. Additionally, a short cruise means you can enjoy the refreshing benefits of sea air, fine food and easily accessible entertainment.

The most popular short cruises are those that operate are around the Mediterranean.You can choose whether to take your city break at the beginning or end of your cruise; for example, a four-day sailing from Barcelona on board Norwegian Epic allows you to take in the sights of Barcelona before taking your cruise for instance.

Star Flyer is 360 feet long and carries just 170 guests in pampered comfort. Life aboard is blissfully relaxed, much like travelling on a private yacht. You’ll never feel confined, as each ship offers pleasingly spacious accommodation and expansive teak decks with ample space for relaxing and play. In fact, you’ll find that this ship offers more outdoor space per passenger than most conventional cruise ships. The décor of Star Flyer is reminiscent of the grand age of sail. Antique prints and paintings of famous sailing ships please the eye, while teak and gleaming mahogany rails are richly reminiscent of Star Clippers’ proud nautical heritage.

Enjoy our convivial indoor-outdoor Tropical Bar and Piano Bar, and Edwardian style library where a Belle Époque fireplace glows with a warmth that reflects the friendliness and enthusiasm of Star Clippers’ hospitable officers and crew.

Tips and Gratuities: Gratuities on board the ship are not included in the cruise fare and are at the sole discretion of each individual passenger based on the level of service they received.

MS VOLENDAM

Inside Passage is one of the most scenic sea-lanes in the world, and one of the few where deep-draft vessels can sail close to steep mountain walls. The scenery is unbelievable, with forests in a hundred shades of green, tumbling turquoise glaciers, and evocative towns loaded with history, culture and adventure.

With most of Southeast Alaska accessible only by boat or plane, the Inside Passage is a lifeline to the outside world. All day long it hums.

Glacier Bay As Biosphere Reserve an UNESCO World Heritage Site, Glacier Bay National Park; protects a unique ecosystem of plants and animals living in concert with an ever-changing glacial landscape. How does it feel when a monumental chunk of ice splits off a glacier and crashes into the sea? The sound is like thunder.

The impact shoots water hundreds of feet into the air. You hold your breath as you catch the moment on film. Then you wait for it all to happen again. And it does. Glacier Bay has more actively calving tidewater glaciers than anyplace else in the world.

From beachcombing and to riding the rapids, there’s something amazing for everyone to do in Saint John.

Halifax, Canada

Colon, Panama Panama’s second-largest city lies at the eastern end of the Panama Canal.

Here, you’ll be able to venture into the Canal Zone and witness two of the world’s most significant manmade marvels. The canal itself is an engineering feat on par with the Pyramids of Egypt; it revolutionized travel and commerce.

Panama Canal “The land of the divided, the world united.” It’s hard to imagine a more fitting motto for what in no uncertain terms irrevocably changed the Western Hemisphere forever. For fifty miles the canal transects the exotic emerald jungles of Panama and gives one an appreciation of what a Herculean task it was to build this waterway before the advent of computers and giant earth movers.

Highlights Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Described by Darwin as “more magnificent than anything any European has ever seen in his country of origin”, Rio is blessed with an idyllic setting. Lying on Brazil’s Atlantic coast close to the Tropic of Capricorn, Rio boasts a coastline of magnificent beaches set against a mountainous backdrop. In contrast to its tranquil setting, Rio is home to Carnaval, a five-day celebration that makes Mardi Gras seem timid by comparison. For those interested in sunbathing and peoplewatching, the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana provide an ideal spot.

Buenos Aires, Argentina Encompassing nearly the entire Southern half of South America, Argentina posseses a topography ranging from some of the worlds tallest mountains to expansive deserts and massive waterfalls.

Aside from it’s numerous natural wonders a European sophistication and passion for local culture is evident in the cosmopolitan capital of Buenos Aires where you will find cobbled streets, grande avenues, old-time cafes and stylish restaurants.

Buzios, Brazil Up until the 1960’s, few outside the confines of this charming fishing village on the Costa del Sol even knew of its existence. That all changed when a young starlet named Brigitte Bardot found Buzios’ white-sand beaches and tepid clear waters too good to keep to herself. While retaining its pre-’60s charm, Buzios has evolved into a respectable fashion destination. Shopping along the Rua des Pedros is always rewarding.

Adventure Cruise Holidays Sunway are delighted to introduce our Adventure Cruise Holidays for 2012.

Along with our partners Gap Adventures, we believe that our worldwide adventures are all about changing people's lives through active cultural exploration, embracing the bizarre, getting away from the tourist crowds, and creating opportunities for unique and memorable experiences.

Feel the wind in your hair and smell the salt in the air as you take to the sea, far away from the tourist track, to explore seldom visited islands and commune with remarkable wildlife. While all of our marine adventures are unique, they share the same spirit of exploration. The spirit that propelled legendary explorers like Charles Darwin and Ernest Shackleton to keep searching for their personal paradise. Whether you are looking to snorkel with the sea lions in the Galapagos Islands, cruise though the icebergs in the Antarctic on board the M/S Expedition or watch out for roaming polar bears in the Arctic we’ve got an Adventure Cruise for everyone.

Fitness to Fly Conditions such as Deep Vein Thrombosis may be associated with any form of long distance travel whether by air, car, coach or train. In particular, Long haul air flights (flight lasting longer than 5 hours) where passengers remain immobile in the seated position for long periods of time may be associated with an increased risk. Some people are deemed to be at greater risk and these categories are listed in the latest government advice, and they are advised to seek medical advice from their GP before travelling. People with other conditions may need special assistance from the airline. If you have any concerns about your fitness, then contact your doctor for advice.

For the Avoidance of doubt, this means that the Organiser is to be regarded as having all benefits of any limitations of compensation contained in any of these conventions or any other international conventions applicable to the Consumer’s holiday. This information notice summarises the liability rules applied by Community air carriers as required by Community legislation and the Montreal Convention. Compensation in the case of death or injury: There are no financial limits to the liability for passenger injury or death. For damages up to 100,000 SDRs (Special Drawing Rights, approximately €95,000) the air carrier cannot contest claims for compensation. Above that amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving it was not negligent or otherwise at fault.

Advance payments: If a passenger is killed or injured, the air carrier must make an advance payment, to cover immediate economic needs, within 15 days from the identification of the person entitled to the compensation. In the event of death, this advance payment shall not be less than 16,000 SDRs (approximately €15500). Passenger delays: In the case of a passenger delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures.

The liability for passenger delay is limited to 4,150 SDRs (approximately €3850). Baggage delays: In the case of a passenger delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for baggage delay is limited to 1,000 SDRs (approximately €930). Destruction, loss or damage to baggage: The air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to 1,000 SDRs (approximately €930). In the case of checked baggage, it is liable even if not at fault, unless the baggage was defective. In the case of checked baggage, the carrier is liable only if at fault.

Higher limits for baggage: A passenger can benefit from a higher limit by making a special declaration at the latest at check-in and by paying a supplementary fee. Time limit for action: Any action in court to claim damages must be brought within two years from the date of arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived. Basis for the information: The basis for the rules described above is the Montreal Convention of 28 May 1999, which is implemented in the Community by Regulation (EC) No. 2027/97 (as amended by Regulation (EC) No. 889/2002 and national legislation of the member states).

by Sunway Holidays can be provided on request. You have the right to have any inaccurate personal information rectified or erased. Please note that airlines are required by new laws introduced in the United States and other countries to give border control agencies access to passenger data.

Accordingly any information we hold about you and your travel arrangements may be disclosed to the customs and immigration authorities of any country in your itinerary.

18. IDENTITY OF CARRIERS We are obliged to inform you, at time of booking, of the identity of the operating air carrier(s) which is due to perform, or likely to perform, your flight and if there are any changes to the operating air carrier(s) we are obliged to inform you of any such change(s) as soon as possible. If we don’t know the identity of the operating carrier(s) at time of booking, we must inform you of same as soon as such identity is established. In all cases, we are obliged to inform you of the identity of the operating air carrier at check-in or on boarding, where no check-in is required for a connecting flight.

In accordance with EU Directive – (EC) No.2111/2005, Article 9, we are required to bring to your attention the existence of a ‘Community Blacklist’, which contains details of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban within the EU Community. The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/list_en.htm B: FLIGHTS The following Terms & Conditions apply when you book Flight Only with us.

1. Contract Any booking made or order placed by you, whether through the SUNWAY website or otherwise, shall be deemed an offer by you to purchase the relevant items subject to these booking conditions. Note that SUNWAY are selling the tickets as agents for the airlines, which means the contract for the flight product will be between you and the airline.

Please note that for each ticket there are additional terms which are specific to that fare. Most instant purchase tickets are non-refundable when cancelled. You are responsible for complying with any airline’s terms in relation to check-in times, reconfirmation of flights or other matters. In relation to flight tickets, you are required to use all flight coupons in order of sequence. If this requirement is not met the airline may void the ticket.

2. Reservations Be aware that certain airlines do not maintain “real time” seat availability in the airline reservations system to which we connect. Whilst every effort is made to reflect the true situation, instances may occur when airlines cancel sales. SUNWAY will advise you if this is the case and will do all they can to reinstate your booking.

3. Tickets If it is not possible to get your flight tickets to you (e.g. because your travel date is imminent) we may insist that you have an “e-ticket” or a TOD (ticket on departure) generated. A TOD is when you will have to pick up your ticket at your point of departure. We will ensure you know exactly where to pick up your tickets.

Where an airline provides e-ticketing on a specific route this will be the only ticketing option made available. Electronic tickets are stored in the airline’s computer rather than printed on paper. The service is similar to the traditional paper ticket process but eliminates the time and hassle associated with purchasing or exchanging a paper ticket.

When you arrive at the airline check in desk you will be required to present an official form of identification (i.e. passport) to receive your boarding pass. Please note that you must print out your confirmation page or confirmation email to show to the airline. Because your e-ticket is held in the airline’s computer, you cannot forget it or lose it. More importantly, your e-ticket cannot be stolen, saving you the cost of a replacement ticket.

You do not have to wait for your e-ticket to be delivered to you.
