That is misleading. The national emergency powers are already ended. The travel requirement may still be terminated May 11th

Thanks for that. Hope that folks now see there is a method to the madness. Been on the others I love QM2 the best. What a ship!

Absolutely. But Not really what I meant. Where certain public places are located does make a difference. I understand that QM2 was purposely designed for maximum comfort in those places. Which makes it a challenge for some to navigate around the ship as it is not designed like a regular cruise ship.

Thanks for your review. I wonder if you have considered much of the reason for the quirky layout you mention is so you can have the smooth ride you enjoyed.

You could possibly find an excursion through Viator

🙂

Called Cunard and a very nice lady by the name of Sarah sorted it 🙂

Any idea how long this has been a problem. i wonder why they don't fix it

thanks that's a relief 🙂

I have tried and tried and tried to put the details for my emergency contact in "My Cunard" to no avail. I have tried it in Safari and in Chrome on the computer and iPad. I have tried on two separate voyages. I have tried it on my wife's page. All to no avail. I'm I missing something? Any one else having this problem? Is it driving any one else nuts? Any help greatly appreciated.

He Signed it!! "President Joe Biden on Monday signed into law a Republican-backed resolution that immediately terminates the coronavirus national emergency first declared in March 2020." Now my UK Family can come visit

Been in Sheltered Balcony several times and never issue with sound problems. Choose deck 5 and you only have cabins above and below instead of a public area that may be noisy.

I think he will sign it. Their schedule was May 11th. With that date being so close so I can't see him not signing. Like you I really hope so. I've got family in the UK waiting to come over.

This news may end vax being required to enter USA The Senate adopted a resolution to end the national emergency declaration related to COVID-19 on Wednesday, sending it to President Joe Biden who is expected to sign it.

Only for non USA citizens

Thank you that really helps. Going to do it for sure.

As I read it NO voyage after April 23 on QM2 and QV and after June 8th on QE requires testing or vax. The only exception is if a particular port requires it. But Not Cunard. Am I missing something.

Here's the full text. Update to our vaccination and testing policy. Covid-19 vaccination and testing will no longer be required for the majority of our voyages. For voyages departing on or after the 23 April 2023 on Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria and voyages departing on or after 8 June 2023 on Queen Elizabeth, Covid-19 vaccination and testing will no longer be mandatory for guest’s travelling with Cunard. Prior to these dates there are still some voyages with Covid-19 vaccination and testing requirements. For more information on our vaccine and testing policy and to see which voyages have vaccination and testing requirements, please visit our vaccine and testing policy page. While Covid-19 vaccination will no longer be required for Cunard voyages, we still highly recommend that all guests travelling on our ships are up to date with Covid-19 vaccinations and boosters where eligible and available. If guests are displaying any symptoms of Covid-19 or feel unwell in the days leading up to their voyage, we highly recommend that they take a Covid-19 test before they travel and only travel to the ship if this is negative. If guests are symptomatic on the day of embarkation, we ask that they declare this to terminal or check-in staff. Guests who test positive within 7 days of sailing will not be allowed to embark. Country specific Covid-19 testing and vaccination entry requirements. Please note, if guests are travelling to join the ship in another country or disembark in another country, they need to be aware that the entry requirements to travel by land or air may differ from the requirements to embark the ship. Guests will be responsible for ensuring that they meet the entry requirements of embarkation and disembarkation ports. For example, all guests aged 18 years and over travelling to the U.S. by air are required to show proof of being fully vaccinated against Covid-19. These U.S. entry requirements are separate from our cruise protocols. Please advise your customer to check the government website of the country they are travelling to, both for embarkation and disembarkation, to ensure they are aware of the most up-to-date country requirements, as we can’t accept responsibility if guests are denied entry to a country because they fail to meet its entry requirements. If guests are displaying any symptoms of Covid-19 or feel unwell in the days leading up to their voyage, we highly recommend that they take a Covid-19 test before they travel and only travel to the ship if this is negative. If guests are symptomatic on the day of embarkation, we ask that they declare this to terminal or check-in staff. Guests who test positive within 7 days of sailing will not be allowed to embark. Issued 20 March 2023.

Sorry if this is old news. For voyages departing on or after the 23 April 2023 on Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria and voyages departing on or after 8 June 2023 on Queen Elizabeth, Covid-19 vaccination and testing will no longer be mandatory for guest’s travelling with Cunard.

When are you going? We are on 30th June. Not our first Cunard cruise but first Cruise to Alaska. Love Cunard. Just my cup-a-tea. Or should I say afternoon tea 🙂

I know it's a big deal for some but I for one am not really too concerned how others are dressed. Just my lady and me.:) Yes we do enjoy dressing for Gala nights but I must admit I struggle getting into my Tux and the gear that goes with it.

Amen to that

Thanks to all for the help

We are looking at sailing from NYC spending 10 days in the UK and sailing back. Does anyone know if there are places to store ones luggage at the Southampton port? Would like to not have to lug our cruise stuff around England if possible

You will love the voyage. We did a few years ago. As well as fabulous scenery you are on a magnificent ship. On our trip there were masses of people out cheering QM2 many places we cruised by. We are looking at doing it all again this year. You can't go wrong with Stateroom 5160. Have a great time.
