  1. 15:45 boarding is insane . Puts you at the end of the line to sign up for limited things that can only be done once onboard , not to mention missing lunch . Get there when you get there .
  2. Still waiting for ours from July cruise . They already know how they are doing .
  3. I don't see as many postings stating "I want to own my booking and don't care about TA offerings", since the Pandemic disruptions. Lessons learned by some. Horror stories on hold waiting for cruise line reps.
  4. Watching guests walking around with 12 packs on their shoulders until cabins are ready makes me wonder why they must do this after spending $$$$ on the cruise upfront.
  5. Just show up when you wish . I have seen no reports that Cunard has been enforcing Boarding times lately.
  6. One dark suit will do for the 2 Gala Nights of a 7 night crossing. Glad that you used a Good TA who thanked you for booking , with extra goodies.
  7. Use a Good TA for a Cunard World Cruise . A Good TA will do flips to book your World Cruise. Expect several thank you goodies from the TA as well as an additional discount of your cruise fare as Cunard permits TA's to discount even their best cruise rates.
  8. QM2 schedule has a break in Nov 2023 that could be it .
  9. In July the 2hr time slots were capacity controlled. Get there early to reserve your preferred times. You may also request to change your time along the cruise but your choices would be what is left available.
  10. I couldn't have put it better. That is us also. Been cruising since 1979 on most every cruise line serving the US, and reluctantly going with the dress codes for Formal nights .
  11. Sounds like a "Pending" credit check that will disappear shortly.
  12. Yes you can . Just visit the public areas which permit casual dress on Formal Nights after 6pm ( Kings Court , Golden Lion , Carinthia) 😉
  13. Cruising was Cruising back in the 70’s , 80 ‘s and 90’s . Today it has evolved to something else . Not bad , but not Cruising as I remember .
  14. Your TA can add your Cunard Choice air easily on their POLAR booking site months in advance .
  15. July cruise we did Self Walkoff and Uber ($90) to EWR in time for 10:40am flight.
  16. Depending on the airline you can book your seats when the Cunard Complete Air is reserved . We booked our transatlantic Delta seats well before Final Payment .
  17. That is good news ! Our July 1st QM2 cruises we noticed how badly she needed rust treatment and paint but few were working on that then.
  18. Fully vaccinated and masked indoors , wife and I got Covid last night of 7/01 QM2 cruise . We Lived , as most all do now thanks to vaccines . Relaxed requirements will continue I hope but keep up the vaccine requirement .
  19. Oh , I guess that really was not Covid19 that we got 2 weeks ago .
  20. Table mate tried to purchase wine onboard with a "credit card" ????? Then complained about it ????????
  21. The current US Sale Flyer lists all of the Transatlantic sailings thru April 2024
  22. Alternative Dining in Kings Court was available every night of our July 1st cruise. Menus were not published , just the theme each night. Menus were available to view at the Kings Court podium. Reservations sold out fast after the 1st night . Only Indian nights were available when we reserved but got in via waitlist for Bamboo night (excellent).
  23. And don’t overlook the Military OBC if either of you qualify 😀 With all the OBC’s available we end up with quite a bit of spending money onboard . All stackable 😀 FCD Shareholder Military Cunard promo Group Amenity from TA TA Gift
  24. Another vote for Nachi Cocum . Book online early , limited capacity , sells out @ $59p/p.
  25. 8 cabins double occ booked into your group will give you 1 guest cruise fare (not the port or tax’s) rebated to the group leader . 3rd, 4th do not count , The mom and 1 kid will count as dbl occ . You should also receive amenities of your choice depending on how many Group Points are allotted for your ship/sailing date .
