QM2 April 28 Trans Atlantic - Business Lunch B4 we Board

[guernseyguy]

For others sailing on the April 28 Trans Atlantic, do note that a 'business lunch' is taking place onboard from 09.00-14.30 so I doubt we will be permitted to board before they disembark.....just in case anyone was planning on turning up early....

See you onboard (eventually!)

There's a business lunch on every sailing. You can always board by 12-12:30.

susietb, thanks - didn't know that....though one wonders why

• this one made it into the press with
  
• the description that it was "the hottest networking ticket in town" and
  
• "the event will be an extra special occasion"
  
• And they also say "The conference, which takes place from 9am to 2.30pm, coincides with turnaround day - 2,600 passengers will disembark, while the same number embark later"
  

The ambiguity lies in which 'later' - later than the pax disembark, or later than the Business people disembark?

 

I am entirely happy to believe that you are a more reliable source than the Southampton Echo...but are you talking generally & them specifically?

Dan Quayle??? Did I read that right?

 

Peter... sounds to me like something far more important than just a business lunch, and I for one am glad that I won't be there waiting to board when it's over. The staff will probably be worn out.

From the Newspaper : "Dan Quayle, one of the founders of DIY empire B&Q"

 

No....I suspect thats another Dan Quayle...possibly a more important one....
