Checking in and Embarkation Question

[cruiseqe2]

Hi

I normally travel alone, and as I am a Diamond member I enjoy shorter queues at dedicated check-in desks and priority boarding. (I know that the desks are shared with the Grill Class passengers.)

My question is this. If I were to bring along a Cunard Virgin who will by sharing my cabin, will they be allowed to check in with me (at the dedicated check-in desks), and board with me (as a Priority boarder)?

I look forward to your replies (esp. if they are 'YES'!).

Thanks

Hi there

I am a platinum member and on occassions when I have travelled with my son I have explained and he has been allowed to priority board with me.

I was Diamond long before my husband even reached Platinum (although he is Diamond now :) ). We never had any problem checking in together - we didn't even bother asking we just stood at the desk together. The times you will find a difference are in things like the complimentary wine tasting or the free lunch in TE. In both these cases your friend can go with you but will need to pay. :)

Thanks very much for your replies.

I understand about the extra cost items, it was mainly the checking in and boarding that I was enquiring about. After all, it won't cost Cunard any more money, unlike the wine tasting! :D

I took my folks along on a QE2 mini cruise, l'm also a Diamond member and had no trouble checking them in. What l did object to was being asked was l in the Grills, don't they realise you can be a Diamond member without setting foot in the Grills.

Anyway lm sure all will be well, QE2 as we know was a world in her own right.
