The A Train Posted April 24, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Thanks. Hard to figure. Nothing on Cunard web as well as two online agencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BlueRiband Posted April 24, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 24, 2016 For 2017 Cunard is getting away from these 2 night "Short Break" Southampton-Hamburg and Hamburg-Southampton segments. On the plus side about one third of the passengers extending on to a transatlantic were German who might not otherwise have sailed if they had to fly in or out of Southampton. On the minus side those sailing on just the 2-night segments were the backpack and jeans crowd. (Based on some posts and opinions here I decided to avoid any sailing that would attract that clientele.) Perhaps many others also felt the same way and it wasn't profitable for Cunard's reputation or bottom line. When they did make these runs up to Hamburg is was possible for me to sail EB, spend four days in London, and catch the WB home. But that math doesn't work anymore.

Ray66 Posted April 24, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 24, 2016 For 2017 Cunard is getting away from these 2 night "Short Break" Southampton-Hamburg and Hamburg-Southampton segments There are some 2 night "Hamburg Short Breaks" from/to Hamburg in 2017, namely: 19th-21st August - Southampton to Hamburg 29th-31st August - Hamburg to Southampton 27th-29th October - Southampton to Hamburg 3rd-5th November - Hamburg to Southampton but, they are part of longer cruises to the fjords, and not the 4 day ones you refer to.

Rare foodsvcmgr Posted April 25, 2016 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I was interested in this itinerary when first announced as due to my job cannot travel during the summer when this sort of cruise typically operates. After two days it was removed from the website, have not seen it offered since. Is it available again for booking or is it a charter or something else?

Also Germany. Since Ray had the same info, I guess it can also be booked in the UK? <---not sure, ask Ray :) Edited April 25, 2016 by Salacia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have added that these two day cruises are on sale on the UK website but maybe not in the US? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray66 Posted April 25, 2016 #10 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I have: 27th October - 5th November 2017 – Southampton, Hamburg, Stavanger, Oslo, Hamburg, Southampton – 9 nights Just checked the UK TA website I got it from and it is till there and the cruise number is M739D. But when you put this number into Cunard's website, it says "M739D is no longer available on this website". :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare foodsvcmgr Posted April 27, 2016 #11 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Ray this was my experience also. Looking to experience the remastered Queen in 2017, but this sailing is not looking promising. Best look for alternative sailings I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
