I created the Chart Room menu PDF while onboard in October from the Menu on the Cunard app, so it is as current as anything I've seen. Edit - Actually not true I created the Gin & Fizz one one the 18th October Gin and Fizz menu.pdf

It's from 15th October, but feel free to post a more recent one - It was only intended as a guide - my point about the drinks package is it's not very good value, unless you can consistently drink 7 drinks per day, which I couldn't and even less value if you have a half decent amount of OBC

Re: The drinks package, here's a fairly recent Chart Room drinks menu from QV to give you an idea of the prices (all are +15% gratuity) - I've toyed with the idea of a drinks package, but I would really struggle to make it pay - I could easily drink enough on a given day, but not every day, each to their own though. For our 14 night cruise the drinks package is $2016 for the two of us Chart Room Menu.pdf

We were back in Briannia for a short cruise last September, I'd forgotten what a nice "vibe" the restaurant had compared to the Grills.

Looking at that menu and reading some of the recent QM2 reviews, I struggle to see how people find the food boring and tasteless on board - I know food is subjective, but I'd happily order everything one that menu except goats cheese tart, since that is the work of the Devil

No, if everyone goes against the tide it's conformity - sorry for the pedantry

The QV Chart Room menu from last October's cruise list Fentiman's Brewed Ginger Beer, whether they actually have it available is a moot point, they didn't have any Dandelion & Burdock when requested. Chart Room Menu.pdf

The gym is free - some classes are extra chage

This was from our TA in 2019 - it was certainly open at 7am and the promenade deck is a nice way of cooling down after a run on the treadmills

I'm not sure it would, Whispering Angel was included in the Commodore's wine package, and those wines tend to be in excess of $60 per bottle or $15 for a medium glass. I've just had a look at the chart room menu from last year on QE and it looks to be just outside the limit for a small glass

Has anyone seen the PG bathrooms yet - are they still shower over bath ? If so I'm envious of the Britannia guests being able to get their hair wet - PG showers on QE/QV are chest height for me.

Same - He tried the Indian pop-up on QV and it was very nice, but I'm not sure I'd pass over an evening meal in the Grills restaurant for this even with my Diamond perk unless there was nothing we really fancied at all

Yes - trim the excess off the labels, fold in half lengthways and then fold in half across the middle - I have my name and phone hidden inside - if access is needed then the porters can just extract the label from the holder - see below
-
These all fitted under the bed - it took a bit of stacking cases in cases, but it worked in included Jane's hand luggage, not shown (a smaller version of the top red suitcase)
-
Alternatively get a set of these from Amazon - Luggage Tags - Link and fit them once you've retrieved your luggage at the airport - other brands are available (Top Tip - Print labels at 130% and trim the excess before folding for a perfect fit)

We did a TA followed by a Caribbean cruise in 2019 flying back to the uk from NYC, that was 19 nights and didn't want to get off, so much so we investigated returning with QM2 rather than fly but the cost was a bit to steep.
-
Boarding passes worked on QV last time we did it
