newQM2 cruise for Coronation

[elmsliebev]

just had this email. So looks like she's back sailing pretty soon and maybe they're using this 5 nighter as a test! Cabins from £199. 

 

 

The Coronation Celebration Voyage 5 ‌nights ◆ 2 ‌May ‌2023 ◆ M311E

Dear Mrs xxxxxx (my deletion)  join Queen Mary 2 for a very special voyage unlike any other. Sailing a 5‌‑night round‑trip from Southampton, this voyage offers a chance to enjoy the Coronation celebrations on board Cunard’s flagship, as well as a full day’s port call in Cunard's spiritual home of Liverpool. Throughout the week, enjoy the very best of what Cunard has to offer, as well as curated entertainment, Cunard Insights with notable experts, a much‑loved Gala Evening, Cunard's signature Afternoon Tea, and more, as the week builds towards a celebration of the Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen. The new Coronation Celebration Voyage will be available to book from 1pm Thursday 27 ‌April 2023 until Midday Monday 1 ‌May‌ 2023.

It didn't go on sale until today (Wednesday) at 1pm so sold out a lot quicker than 24hrs.

[Bedruthen]

Sold out in 90 minutes I believe.
