As you may know, Sandakan was substituted for Lawi Lawi for some reason. That is why it is one of the last to have any information about excursions. I talked to Regent last week when I noticed that the excursions were finally posted but sold out. I was told that it was probably not true that they were sold out; it was because they had just been loaded. I wait listed us on the Wildlife Extravaganza, expecting to be cleared when things got straightened out. I'm not sure they prices are meaningful either, since almost all the excursions on this cruise have really been "free."

The situation with Thursday Island is different, I think. We've been booked for that excursion for some time. It may be sold out because it was the only one offered. I would think a call to Regent would clarify matters.
