bluemarble Posted April 29 #2 Share Posted April 29 Cunard have not published master lists of the Insights Guest Lecturers since the shutdown of operations in 2020. They do provide a "Guest speakers on board" page on their website but that mostly just lists speakers for special events cruises (such as the Literature Festival at Sea) and a few of the speakers on other voyages such as QE's Alaska cruises they have been promoting well in advance of those sailings. One way to learn who the speakers will be ahead of time is to use the "Email Cunard" form found on their "Contact us" page. Check the box indicating you have a booking to help identify the voyage you are asking about. I have used that method to ask who the speakers will be for the past several voyages we have been on and have received replies with lists of the scheduled speakers within a day or two. Your crossing is sailing soon enough that Cunard should be close to finalizing the list of speakers at this point. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're super excited for that voyage. Though, unsure if that's because we haven't been on QM2 for 8 months now. Perhaps I'll look into a 6 night crossing in June to tide us over until then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
