Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I'm sure that they can easily make a 'smaller' measure to bring it in on budget. e.g. when they do the Martini mixology classes, the servings are smaller / in a smaller glass than the larger glass you would get if ordered off the menu.
  2. Just to let you know, we are in a similar position. Whilst sailing on the recent QV voyage from Auckland to Sydney, we lodged a booking request with the on board voyage sales team for the QM2 Auckland to Sydney sailing in Feb 2026. As yet, we have not heard anything from the central Cunard reservation team to progress our booking.
  3. Its the dirty ships we don't want - the tourists themselves are welcome - but every destination does want its visitors to spend money... 🥰
  4. Remember that anyone remaining on board from a previous voyage will have the opportunity to 'bag' those tables already, so don't get over-obsessed with table locations.... or getting to the miatre d first.
  5. I know that QM2 has an ice cream machine in the buffet area. I can't remember about QE / QV. (But about 6 people are about to enlighten us 🥰)
  6. "Leaving enough room" is an important thing to consider! I always look at the 'puddings' first. 🥰
  7. I have opted put of postal mailings. I decided I can live without them in this increasingly digital age.
  8. We have been assigned a cabin a couple of weeks ahead of sailing and found ourselves re-assigned to a different cabin (small upgrade) on check-in.
  9. I'm really a QM2 TA (transatlantic) fan for which I loved the formal nights, sea days and occasional stormy weather. So not even a 'cruise' person, per se. Having relocated from London to Auckland, affordability means that my sailings are now likely to be TD (trans-"ditch"). I'll still dress up to the nines 💃. p.s. assume that a formal night for the Aussies/Kiwis is thongs/jandals with glitter??!!! 🩴🤣
  10. Kiwi? 😯 Kiwi??!! 😳 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 🇬🇧❤🤍💙
  11. QV406C 25/02/23 Auckland to Sydney Voyage personaliser says just one gala night on 01/03/23. Other evenings listed as smart attire. One gala night on an 8 night voyage, very disappointing....

    Food

    .... and the varied choice? And to have as much / little of each as you choose? And, as someone said to me on board QE today (who is dining Britannia Club..) - how lovely it is to meet other people. .... and then there is always second lunch?!! 🤣
  13. TV on Queen Elizabeth Dec'22... easily accessible, not tried to use connections though.
  14. Mask wearing had already been re-introduced and now the self-service laundrettes have closed. I have read elsewhere that the laundry service is available, $40 for 15 pieces.
