QE2 and Cyclone

[juliecat]

Looks like the QE2 will be very close to the path of Cyclone Jaya in the next couple days. Any word from onboard about a change of course? Call me compulsove, but I do like checking the ship's position tracker now and then and saw the cyclone symbol close by.

havent heard anything, but rest assured, she is a true ocean liner and the fastest one out there, so I am sure she will avoid the storm

It will be worth watching the bridgecam, might be some good pictures. Like these. This was September 2006 on the North Atlantic.

I am sure she will be fine, if there's one ship to be on during a storm it's the QE2

I was on last year's canada & us crossing / cruise - what a great trip but rarely in my cabin would love to see some more ofyour photos. It certainly was quite choppy for about two days acrossto NYC & then upon our return,

in fact this being my 7th Cunard cruise it was the first time and in the Queens Grill being on Boat Deck was not altogether surprising my wine glass at lunch overturned with the ship's movement! The first & only time I've lost a drink at sea so to speak !

 

Back onboard this October & on the QV in April 2008, only booked yesterday,

 

Kind Regards,

These on board bloggers may have something to say about it in the days to come.

Yes it was a great trip, the rough sea then fog, just made it more interesting. I was in 3006 which is almost as far forward as you can get.
