can you post a letter in the postbox outside the pub,or is it just for show,if this is so where can you post an item

If you hand outgoing mail to the Purser's Desk, you can buy the correct rate of stamp and they will post it as soon as the ship makes its' next port call. It will be postmatked Queen Mary 2 or Victoria.

But any letters that are posted in the red post box have to be stamped already for the next port. For example, if you're on a trannie to NY from Southampton, you must put a US stamp on your letter before putting it in the box. The pursers collect the mail before arrival and send them off with the port agent.

I have no idea how its done, just that they dont always mail them from the next port, ie if your on a multi port cruise
