I am going on the QE2 on a Black Sea cruise in October which lands in Ukraine ports amongst others. Hold an Australian passport and live in Thailand. Australians need visas, even though we are only landing in Ukraine ports for 2 day trips. Cunard will not let me travel unless I have a visa!!!
The Ukraine Embassy in Thailand advises I must obtain the visa in Australia. Problem is I hardly ever go back to Oz. And even a "rush" visa from Canberra embassy takes 7 clear business days to obtain - so read 14 days
I have emailed Cunard, and not even received a reply. I have contacted Cunard's preferred visa agent VisaCentral and the emails bounce back. I do not wish to post my passport to Australia for fear of it getting lost. Frustration builds. Any suggestions?
