scdreamer Posted June 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2017 We will be on a transatlantic sailing on QM2 later this summer, but before we are scheduled to leave, we will be traveling for about a month. I am wondering when our e-tickets will arrive by email. We have already received a booklet in the regular mail with our luggage tags, but no e-tickets. We are still almost two months out from our sailing. I'll have to figure out how to print the e-tickets while "on the road," so an idea of when to expect them would be great.

MarkBearSF Posted June 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Have you checked your Voyage Personalizer? They should be available for printing under "Travel Documents" - the first option on the menu bar at top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scdreamer Posted June 14, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Thank you. I was able to find that information ... apparently it will be available at that site about five weeks before our departure date. I had somehow misunderstood, thinking they were going to email an attachment to me, but didn't know when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For both of our voyages on QM2 last year, we received email notification from Cunard that our e-tickets were ready 44 days before departure. And just to confirm, the e-tickets are not sent as email attachments. You do indeed retrieve them from your Voyage Personaliser.

BklynBoy8 Posted June 14, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2017 We are on guarantee status for the July 1st cruise on the QM2 and we are now 16-17 days out. We believe the information will be released in the few days. We have been told that this is not unusual when on guarantee status. So we are waiting for a call from our TA, email from Cunard and still checking the VP online. So patience is the word till the news comes in.

Hi bluemarble, When time comes to print out the tickets, do you use or recommend a Color Printer or is B&W ok too! We have not sailed for 8 years and everything was more paper and either pickup or mailed. Appreciate your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have not sailed for 8 years and everything was more paper and either pickup or mailed. Appreciate your input. Black and White is fine. And you only need to print out the first page. Here in the U.S., the e-ticket document is about 10 pages long, but the last 9 pages are just the Cunard passage contract. The actual e-ticket itself is just on page 1.

For whatever reason Cunard doesn't release etickets until your cabin is assigned. With most other cruise lines a guarantee cabin status makes no difference. You can still print your eticket and a generic baggage tag. I'm also sailing in July and the sailing has been released for etickets, but because I'm still under a guarantee cabin assignment mine is held up.

Then your etickets will instantly be ready. To be honest I kind of like it. The anticipation that is. Checking my booking daily for any updates. It's kind of like playing the lottery. You don't know what you will end up with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
