Thoughts on first QM2 and Princess Grill experience
exlondoner replied to Windsurfboy's topic in Cunard Line
But not currently, apparently. -
Thoughts on first QM2 and Princess Grill experience
exlondoner replied to Windsurfboy's topic in Cunard Line
When we were on board last summer, quite a lot of people did use the speciality restaurant as a way to get from back to front of Deck 7. Would it not also be possible to walk through on the opposite side? -
Have I misunderstood this or does the bedroom not have any windows? Eeek.

One thing I did wonder was whether the tug was significant, or just precautionary. I’m not sure how windy it was on Sunday night, but sometimes it can be difficult getting into the Ocean Terminal if it’s gusty. Or could it just be welcoming her back after her world cruise?

skipping Britannia dining room TA crossing- anyone done it?
exlondoner replied to dfwguy's topic in Cunard Line
There are indeed. But there are also people who genuinely, if mistakenly, think you will have a more enjoyable time if you eschew (love that word) the KC. Many think that it is a rather confusing and disagreeable space. On the other hand, if the meals aren’t an important part of the cruise for you, it serves up reasonable food that you can eat as you choose. -
Cunard Cruisers - How are things where you are ?

I wonder when Cunard will next venture towards the Black Sea. -
Which does give rise to the question of which steak you might eat with Cloudy Bay. 😀

There’s no rule documented about bringing books or cuddly toys on board either, so, as with soda, you do what you want.

The dress code applies to the pop-ups. -

I had understood that there were fewer tables for two than passengers who wanted them. So, isn’t it rather mean to ask for one, then not use it? -
Is Cunard tweaking the Gala Evening dress code?
exlondoner replied to bluemarble's topic in Cunard Line
Surely that depends on whom you share the home with. I’m sure you wouldn’t wish to distress them. -
Am I the only person in the universe who didn’t find him/her terribly funny, no more than mildly at best?

Casablanca isn’t in the Tropics…quite. I’m shocked, shocked, I say. -
The latter, it appears.
-
Section 43 of the very small print in the back of the brochure, the UK booking conditions, does imply that it is up to Cunard to get you home. I assume US are similar.
-
Certainly, for anyone who booked in the UK, it is covered by the package tour regs. and up to Cunard to sort it. But I imagine that is very few.

The house wines come to just about the same as those in the family hotel we stay in in Devon, more than Aldi obviously, but hardly unbelievably expensive.

I thought Japan was in the Northern Hemisphere.

Is Cunard tweaking the Gala Evening dress code?
exlondoner replied to bluemarble's topic in Cunard Line
I think this happens because a lot of people do two nighters from (or to) Hamburg, and a fair proportion of them, though by no means all, like the idea of a formal night. I also think that, if you are going to take the clobber for one formal night, you may as well make use of it and do several. -
Only if he’s got his screwdriver. 😀

Isn’t it extraordinary that herring/heron gulls are supposed to be endangered? There are zillions round here - and, it seems almost everywhere I go on Cunard ships.

But there is tea available free in the Lido all day, and a kettle and tea bags in the cabin.
