Queen Anne bear lost on way home...need your help

[schattenfell71]

Hello from Germany!

 

We are back from the maiden voyage and it was a fantastic experience. I will write my own review later.

 

But the hardest part is, that our Queen Anne teddy bear did not survied our flight back home. He and some other items was in a small backbag and never turn up at the baggage return station. We wrote a complain and we still miss him very much.

 

My question: Is someone on board so kind to buy a Queen Anne teddy (the one with the green pullover) for us?

 

Of course we would pay all the cost and the shipping to Germany.

 

Thanks again for your help and have a great time on this fantastic ship.

Oh No, I'm so sorry your bear didn't make it home but that sounds like a good excuse for another cruise on Queen Anne!

I am not on until July but if you get no joy before then could help.

I can buy one for you if they are still available - let me know if you still need one and then we can work out the logistics 🙂

Would be great. Thank you. Keep fingers crossed that they still have one available. Please check and let me know.

I guess that’s another “valuable” to remember to keep in the carry-on bag when departing the ship!

Fantastic! Awesome!! Thank you.

I will pay all the costs but I guess I have to wait until you are on shore again for the shipping.

Thank you Hattie. You are a star!

We are fans of Cunard bears, and did not know there was a Queen Anne bear.  Could someone post a picture of it?

The bear has Queen Anne on his left hind paw 🙂

She’s a real cutie!  Thank you, Safarigal.

Here is a quick and sad update:

 

First a very, very big thanks to Safarigal for helping me out with my lost Queen Anne Teddy.

 

She bought me a teddy and send him to me from Southampton nearly 2 weeks ago.

 

But the teddy seems to be lost once again because he did not arrive here in Germany yet.

 

I feel to be inside an episode of "The Twiligt Zone".

 

We are very sad about it but on the other hand glad to meet so many fantastic and helpful people here on the board.

 

Perhaps the teddy will show up but my hopes are not very high.

 

😭

I wouldn’t give up hope yet. Parcels from U K can be slow. Postal services are not that efficient. 

[Pushpit]

I agree it's probably just stuck in customs or some such. If Ms. Annie Bear was sent from the UK then thanks to Brexit it's not as easy or fast as it used to be.

 

However I arrive into Hamburg on Queen Anne on 2 July, so if the matter is still unresolved on 1 July and we can arrange some meet up (or I guess a Safe Bear House) between the port and airport, then that's Plan B.

Do you have any contact with the local customs people?

 

In France they wave anything through from China, Malaysia or India, but immediately jump on anything posted from the UK.

[safarigal]

I am so sorry that the little bear may have gone missing - but maybe he is caught up in customs and will appear agin at your doorstep. Fingers crossed 🙂

[schattenfell71]

Thanks for all of your reply amd yet again a big Thank you to Safarigal.

 

We won´t give up hope.

[Host Hattie]

Here's hoping you get a bear eventually, even if it means sailing on Queen Anne again!

We're doing the northern europe cruise end of month/start of next month, If still looking then, it stops twice in germany so may be able to  post from Germany?
