  1. They are offered on QE too BUT top tip from receptionist, book on the first as they often get cancelled. I can attest to this as mine has now been cancelled three times and now won’t happen at all! Have no idea whether they just didn’t get enough interest but getting vague “operational reasons” and “unforeseen circumstances” as reasons is a bit pathetic. Just be honest!
  2. Am I looking at this wrong or is it another Cunard IT problem? QM2 world cruise in PG on Cunard £53,999pp Introductory offer £6,000pp saving applied Then on all the TA websites it’s massively cheaper. I know they are often a bit cheaper but this much…. £32,849.10 pp£31,209 pp What am I doing wrong?!
  3. Lovely thank you, so nice we’re staying on for another 2 weeks! See you at the shuffleboard court😊
  4. According to staff on board it’s the 19th.
  5. Well you may face the wrath of housekeeping! We always do this but for some reason on this cruise it has become a problem when we take “housekeeping” room glasses out into the “F&B” areas!
  6. Can anyone guess where she is today?! Hopefully these will be of assistance to Cunard as the boarding passes currently say TBC for embarkation terminal!
  7. Boarding tomorrow and had email today stating that it was on board and they are stepping up their “already robust disinfection measures”.
  8. Has anyone been on board QE recently? We were on in November and there were quite a few machines out of service which meant it was quite tough to get a machine. Possibly exacerbated by the length of the voyage.
  9. I know it is (sort of) discretionary but surprised they can change this after you’ve made a booking in anticipation of the previous level of charges?
  10. Cunard are obviously looking after our US friends. If that’s US dollars? That equates to roughly £9000 for P1 where as it’s £11000 on the UK site!
  11. I would say probably not unless you get very lucky with the weather. There are some sheltered spots but nothing inside. Drinks wise there are only water and juices but the staff up there will get you drinks from the bar (at your expense!). It is quite open so even if it’s sunny if there is any wind it can rip through. Maybe wait until on board and check it out?
  12. Unfortunately the Houthi pirates are using air and sea based drones, missiles and helicopters so not much chance of outrunning those!
  13. Can’t say I’ve ever noticed them🤣
  14. Often on Azura canaries cruises the security is carried out by the port authority so they won’t stop you taking alcohol on board. Enjoy the sun!
  15. Disagree with you here, if there are restrictions on all the “extra” venues then this of course puts more pressure on the included venues. The buffet is absolutely rammed.
  16. I’d love to think that’s true but unfortunately I think it’s one of the downsides of having fantastic wifi. Happened on Queen Elizabeth last month too. Would love to see a policy similar to airlines that basically bans calls/video calls in restaurants and relaxing areas but we are probably a way off that.
  17. Completely agree with this, possibly tweek it slightly that you could eat in any of the paid for restaurants.
  18. We are just about to cancel a couple of bookings In Epicurean so keep looking. Done it twice and both times some idiots decide to have a full on loud FaceTime. Why?? Would you do this in a restaurant at home?? Do you have no consideration for other guests?? If you are one of these people I’d love to know why you feel it necessary to have volume higher and talk louder than you would normally. Complained but didn’t really seem to care. Rant paused.
  19. Have you read the article?? This is about the Green Party wanting to ban it. They currently have less than 4 (FOUR)% of the vote. As someone else said on here…Facts matter (again)
  20. I didn’t notice it when the Internet was c**p🤣
  21. Is that some people can’t seem to go without having a loud phone or video call! Now I’m quite a heavy internet user so Starlink has been great for us but surely people would have the common sense to have their calls away from relaxing areas? Perhaps cruise lines need to follow airlines and say as a courtesy to fellow passengers no calls? Rant over!
  22. Don’t know how usual it is to have divers under but have had on this cruise. Somewhere in the med, can’t remember where. Maybe checking the hull?? Pure speculation on my part!
