So it seems all's well, that ends well, for most of the WC passengers from QV and QM onboard and a few will enjoy the coronation cruise, which nobody I know, who tried to get on it, could, as it sold out in a matter of minutes... Nobody does a cruise like Cunard, unique in a quirky traditional British way from a Time Gone Bye... I like all cruises lines and sailed with most many times (and still do) but Cunard will always be my choice for cruises more than two weeks.. I hope you all enjoy future sailing on your ship of choice.😇

I always welcome folks with opposite opinions, as it help all viewing to make their own decisions on what make sense to them. For the few that do not understand what it means making plans for the unexpected, they would do well to heed the words of the greatest statesman that ever lived, Winston Churchill... "Expect the best while making plans for the worst"... The only certainties in life are the uncertainty of it all.

Certainly always compassion for all who have not been able to make the appropriate arrangements, however whenever we undertake any type journey, we have to make possible plans for unexpected events that may come along and if we will be unable to cope with any dire situations that may occur, then it is best to not to take that journey. That is why being intrinsically forewarned of any future possibilities makes a person consider the risk- reward of going on the journey and if it is really worthwhile?

We have friends still on QM and they are totally enjoying the extra time onboard.. They.are making the very best out of an unexpected occurrence. Looking at it in a clearer light, it would have taken 7 days to do the crossing, instead, they have been given 4-5 days extra onboard at no cost and have the bonus to explore the beautiful British countryside and towns. They will be home around the same time as planed only difference, they have a transatlantic non-stop flight instead of a NY flight. Their luggage has been sent home and they have been given a full refund plus 20% of the crossing fare. Cunard have done their best in this unexpected situation. In life there are those who moan n groan in every unexpected event and there are those who make the most of each situation that comes along... La-De Da!

Well folks here is the latest on the coronation cruise... Gone in a blink of the eye This voyage has sold out Due to popular demand, this voyage is no longer available, but the Cunard Queens offer many other short cruises from Southampton throughout the year for a convenient and luxurious getaway.

Just called Cunard USA to book the coronation cruise and was told all bookings have to be done in the UK phone number 0344 338 8641 on Thursday... flights from Miami are around $2000 return for two people on BA.... Queens grill for only 599 pounds... God save the King!!!😇

whic Which means she may be in for a happy surprise? (and all the extra days onboard at no cost)

All Kudos to Cunard... 😇 It seems there are still USA passengers on QM and If I was one, I would love to sail to Liverpool for the Kings coronation. A once in a lifetime experience and an exceptionally super end to a world cruise. Cunard has grabbed success from the jaws of failure... Always remember... Life is what happens while we make plans
