Hi

You would hope they would reset, just because we do one voyage that is multiple legs, we usually do not pay less per leg than others 

will will see what happens and report back in late November. 

We are doing the 16 night from nyc return on November 10th, for us it is one voyage, but made up of 3 segments...as platinum my expectation would we would get just 240 each for the 16 nights..is this correct or would we get more.

And depending on how much we eat/gain. I bring an extra one just in case last one planned does not  fit 😀😀😀

We also like our coffee with dessert, but it seems the standard serving is with milk..we ask for cream and the coffee almost seems like a dessert, it make it sooo much better..

the couple of times in the grills, I have had the lattes they were ok, but nothing like samuels..

I bought a coffee card last year on QM2 and then $8.50 per day on the QE.. I am very dispointed in the new charge of $15 per day...not a deal at all.

As per the first reply that was directed to my question about the Cunard ball, the answers received help me plan for our cruise last summer.

our experiences to date have been as follows:

royal Cunard ball - red or gold, in our case, I wear a red gown with gold accessories, shoes etc and my husband wears red bow tie

twenties night - lots of flapper gear..men sometimes have older style hats/shoes and some with tails etc. (But the number of men dresses other than stand tux are lower).., my husband wears a white vest and tie with his tux. I have both long sequin gown and a flapper dress with gloves, pearls, feather head piece and Mary Jane style shoes

masquerade - we just wear regular formal gear, some have mask etc and bring to dinner, whether they wear to the ballroom, we do not know

black and white ball - as it sounds, usually wear a black gown, and husband wear tux, vest and tie. 

Gala night - dress up in formal gear

Christmas - the couple of times we have been on board at Xmas, I like to wear a red gown and husband matches with bow tie

new years eve - glitter formal gear for me, tux and matching bow tie to my dress for my husband 

Hi, we are going to try hard to get enough stamps for the binoculars. Does anyone remember how many are needed for that prize.

we seems to just get enough for a clock and the pen set..

we have a 16 night coming up on November 10th so hoping this many days may help this time

Harris is a gorgeous area the beaches look like they are straight from the Caribbean on a sunny day . Did you stop for some fish n chips in town?

Your going to have a great trip. We did this similar route last year but the ship had to skip Lewis. We did go in March of this year for a week to see the family. Stornoway is a beautiful port, try to get the Castle Grounds if you have time.

See you in November on Mary.

We enjoy the coffee after dinner with dessert, it always comes with milk. We ask for cream and this brings the coffee to an entirely different level,,I wish I could find cream like this at home for my coffee..

Adventure of the seas 

and thanks

I just called, both must have the same, but I got the deluxe drink package for a bit more than 50% off, must be a sale on, just got it for our sailing next May for $24 Canadian each per day..he said it may vary per reservation, but even though I do not drink, it was a deal...coffee sold in Starbucks not included, but it does state premium coffee included

any ideas of what that really means?? Will I still get lattes etc.? 

They do do have a coffee card for $45 for 15 drinks, so could buy that if needed considering the deal we just got.

• We are in cabin 8014 on Qm2 Nov 9 across the Atlantic and back from nyc. Figured wouldn’t be spending  a lot of time on the balcony, but would allow fresh air if needed and...A bit more light compared to sheltered and was less expensive .

anyone had this room and have feedback to give?

Have a great compact canon. With 40 zoom, taken approx at 9 am on dec 8th, this new one is even closer and another further away 

Pic taken on dec 8 in port just before disembarking

We have done both, regular cabin and grills lounge , both have the same assortment but the grills is very quick as a small group, was usually in and out in 10 -15 mins.. we were on QM2 inmate November and they walked around with items, no stands with food..in the grills concierge lounge, yes they have items that are self serve at that time of afternoon tea

Funny, we are doing the same thing, this year we did the November Caribbean cruise, next year will be the round trip 16 night leaving NYC on the 10th,,,we enjoy the ship so much this felt like the best thing as will have 12 sea days and 6 formal nights and the price was about the same and get 4 more nights

We’ve been in reg and recently princess grill,  we thought the coffee was great in the grills especially when we use real cream..(which we save from another breakfast order with coffee)...it was so good we proceeded to buy the same illy coffee at home, to be disappointed that it did not taste the same...room service coffee is good in grills or Britannia..why not spoil yourselves

We asked on the nov 25th cruise and were told both of us required to buy the package. I don’t drink so not worth it. 

For the the coffee we were on QM2 in August and bought a coffee card for $38, which worked out to $3.80 per cup, then on Queen Elizabeth, they had a coffee package, same as this one but it was $8.50 a day, and I only bought it...even that was hard had to have 3 good lattes to go past the value...$15 is too high bring back the coffee card, either one of us or both could get a coffee...

All done when we got off last saturdaySaturday

We travelled on qm2 this summer, received our large case after embankment with missing wheel, made it really awkward for getting off and on to next ship then airport at the end...that one got thrown out. They broke another one on Saturday as we disembarked in nyc, cracked the case and broke a wheel, and we had another broken in 2011, they do not cover any damage...so far 3, as far as I know they were within the limit, so I feel not so much how much they weigh , but the problem can be how they load, stack and unload luggage 

We just got off QM2 and I saw more shorter dresses and pant with nice tops vs gowns this time...as noted maybe more at Xmas, but expect not all gowns.

We are on our way home...great cruise...but I did notice a slight decline in dress...men are still mostly in tuxes on gala nights,  but long evening gowns are not seen as much as in past cruises ...would say maybe 20%..this is the first time I felt overdressed. Also not a lot of ties on the other nights for men, mostly shirt with jackets..saw the same thing on QE this last summer

the weather was great as were the seas...food excellent as normal.

looking forward to our cruise next nov 10th

Hi Mudhen, we will see you onboard and maybe at dinner as we are in PG as well

We booked yesterday for 16 night nyc to nyc November 2019. Price in Canadian was $3311 for DF on the 19th. Yesterday it was $2999. But no OB or free grat for Britainna. But the price difference from the day before was still better even taking into account the cost of grat. Note. As this was a discount sale future cruise credits are not allowed.  Which is not in the fine print on certificate nor website. But it is in cunards notes for the sale code.
