More upmarket than P&O but in a country club way, all ages there, go for it.
If you want belly flop comps etc do not go but if you are looking for something a bit more refined then it is fine, bear in mind you will not be the only people on board looking to achieve the same thing.
I went down to see them off and noticed allot more younger passengers and even some with kids. I dont think you can go wrong with a short cruise out of Sydney.
I am 27 now and back in 2005 I did Sapphire Princess 12 nights Sydney to Auckland and found plenty of young passengers my age.

They are doing the exact trip I plan on doing would be great to hear how they find it....good to hear the younger crowd is evident

We now have another option honolulu to sydney...18 nights, would this fit under the short cruise banner...its segment of a 35night
I find that younger peolpe are on in the warmer months in holiday seasons and they tend to go to hotter tropical destinations.
If your going with a group of other young people then you should be fine. Hawaii is always good to visit and 18 nights is not really long as it fits into annual holidays so there MAY be other younger people there.

Just wondering how they found it/ the destinations
From what I have heard the crew appeared to be miserable and the ones who were due to get off were short tempered and exhausted. Apparantly the majority of Australians on removed the auto tipping system and there were rumours that this was upsetting the crew.
If you are really keen to do Hawaii then think how many people are in your group and if you at least meet a few other young ones you should be right. It is a gamble. I have been on cruises where I have been one of the youngest passengers there and still had a great time.
