Traveling in a luxury cabin, no less. I found this entertaining, and I'm glad it all turned out okay.

Haha, wouldn’t be the first Aussie “galah”to go on a cruise, Mel

Good, sensible outcome. Wonder what he will tell his people? Galahs can be great talkers.

Happy ending for the Brisbane galah, but a sad one for one of NZ's most famous birds, Nigel the lonely gannet:
