Missing month in 2008 for QE2??

[sailsalot]

Hey!

 

I had been thinking about a particular cruise on QE2 for 2008, but now when I looked at schedule, that particular cruise is not there anymore. it was a 10-day mediterranean cruise starting Oct. 12. It looks like there's nothing on the schedule from Sept. 30 to Oct. 27. Does anyone knoew what the ship will be doing during that month?

 

Thanks for solving this mystery!!

Wow, that was quick. This morning, Cunard announced the sale of QE2 as of Nov 2008. I immediately looked at the voyage finder, and it brought up a full slate of cruises for October-Nov 2008. I just checked the voyage finder again, and I see what you saw--hole in the schedule.

 

This time will be filled by different sailings. If you go to the Cunard website and read the press release, you will find a link to the new schedule.

I must be really incompetent b/c I can't find that link on the press release page. Do you think you can copy it to here? Or tell me where to look? Sorry!

[3rdGenCunarder]

You're not incompetent. I misremembered. It was a PDF attached to the email from Cunard (I'm signed up to receive emails from them), and not on their website. I tried to paste the link in here, but it won't "take." (apparently I'm incompetent)

 

Keep watching the Cunard website. I'm sure they'll get the new schedule in place asap. Try signing up for news and offers on the website, and maybe you'll get some info that way.

 

Good luck.

News Release here--it's from the Cunard--US version, don't know if it matters, but that's what was open when I read your request.

Thanks to both of you for your help. I'm supposed to receive Cunard emails, but maybe mine is still making its way to me. :) I'll just have to keep an eye out on the posted schedule through the website.
