fantasy51 Posted March 4, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I think the UK Cunard site is suffering from a glitch. It is currently showing prices of around £100,000 in every category for the 4 nights Hong Kong to Singapore on 29th March. I wonder how long it will be before they correct their figures. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zider Posted March 4, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I was pricing a short cruise on Cunard's website & the Saver fares where dearer than the Cunard far by $1000 pp & I checked again & now the 2 fares are the same price, Conclusion either they have a glitch in the pricing system or they have a Monkey programing it.

Rare Scrapnana Posted March 4, 2016 #4 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Maybe that's the "all-inclusive" price!;):D;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats2010 Posted March 5, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2016 :D Not quite that impressive, but the other day I saw an offer on a TA's website for a 22 days' cruise, in April 2016, on the "old" QM2 and from Dubai to London. The price was the same: USD 17,998.00 for a single balcony cabin or a suite. No explanation from the TA ... :confused: I wonder what happened there. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minz56 Posted March 6, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Maybe it is the cost of a private charter of the whole ship :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fantasy51 Posted March 6, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted March 6, 2016 What does this mean? Please explain :confused:. I suspect it was an autocorrect by the computer after a typo, and he meant to type 'Maybe you get to play Captain.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john watson Posted March 7, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I suspect it was an autocorrect by the computer after a typo, and he meant to type 'Maybe you get to play Captain.' You have to be very careful with the "autocorrect" as a journalist once found out after using the facility. He ended up paying a huge sum out in damages. What he wrote was that: "Miss Xxxxxx was one of the best tenis players in the world" Can you see where it went? Regards John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats2010 Posted March 8, 2016 #12 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I don't use these programs nor do I use automatic translations. What comes out is wrong most of the time and often good for a laugh :D. Still, the real question had not yet been answered :rolleyes:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasy51 Posted March 8, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Still, the real question had not yet been answered :rolleyes:. If you are asking about the central meaning behind the post, it seemed to me he was being facetious and saying that if he had to pay that much for a cruise, he would want to wear the Captain's hat and be in charge of the ship.

fantasy51 Posted March 14, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Prices are currently at £2,600 pp for a balcony for the 4 days. It's still steep, but I guess it includes 2 air fares - London to Hong Kong, Singapore to London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
