My 50th birthday treat - first time on Cunard

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Queen Mary 2 (QM2)

We picked the cruise for the itinerary, as i do not enjoy flying anymore. I had the choice as well as it was my belated 50th birthday present. The only way i feel i can do the review justice is do some comparison to Celebrity as they are our favourite cruise line. Embarkation had a little of a shaky start as the gangway malfunctioned, so we had a bit of a delay. Got on about 1pm. ...

I chose this round trip crossing because I wanted to enjoy the ship and not get on and off everyday. It was just great! There was plenty to do everyday if you wished. I tried to do the least and still kept busy. I took in lectures I had not planned, music programs I had not planned and even bingo. Most of the time I just enjoyed the people and the public rooms. Our 8:30 dinner was a constantly ...

Transatlantic RT Crossing September 7 – 22, 2017 ~~~First Day at Sea, Friday, September 8, 2017~~~ Gliding along on almost flat seas, the Queen Mary 2 is cruising along at over 20 knots, on our way to Southampton, England, due to arrive in 6 days. My sheltered balcony cabin 6250 on Deck 6 is just as shown on the many YouTube videos I've watched. Tonight was formal, requiring tuxedos, ...

This was part of our bucket list, to sail on one of the Queens to England, that is basically why we cose the QM2. We had a very nice flight to LaGuardia fro6tnm Toront. We had the Black car driver from heaven for our transfer to the cruise terminal, who gave us the best tour of NYK as we inched our way along the fast route to the terminal. (My advise is to get a flat rate taxi or car). Then ...

We chose a transatlantic crossing from New York to Southampton. We had never cruised at all and were apprehensive, about the formalities really and not coming up to expectations. Why on earth did we worry. I can honestly say that this was easily the best holiday ever. It did take quite a while to embark and was a little confusing for the first time person such as ourselves. It was Labour ...

Magical Transatlantic crossing New York to Southampton

An amazing experience. Crossing the Atlantic Ocean on a true ocean liner is the only way to go. Never want to fly across again. Everything was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. However, we'd researched ahead of time and knew what to expect-horrible food! If we hadn't known this heading into the crossing we'd have been very disappointed. Food quality aside, the ship and its ...

Friends were taking the New York to Southampton crossing and it sounded like lots of fun so we tagged along. This was our first cruise and we sailed in early September. The ship certainly lives up to its billing; it is as beautiful as pictured on the Cunard website. What we loved. * Dressing up for formal nights - such fun! * Promenade Deck - it was wonderful sunny, rainy, or foggy. The ...

We originally were looking into a 'fly - tour - sail home' trip, but decided against flying and booked the round trip Brooklyn - Southampton - Le Harve - Brooklyn. We did not know [was a pleasant surprise] that the eastbound crossing was the National Symphony Orchestra crossing. Has we known that in advance that would have been a real reason to prefer that date [the 2018 National Symphony ...

We had a morning walking around the old town of Southampton as our check in was 2.30pm. and a short taxi ride from the hotel. The QM2 had arrived at 9am. Wow what a sight from the Hotel. Slick booking in, bags disappeared at door and a long and well stocked (receptionist line) – zero queue. Only hoot was the discussion about the ESTA rules for expiry (unlike a passport it can be the day ...

To judge from the adverts, Queen Mary 2 is a veddy, veddy British ship, right? The answer is, sort of, but not always in that good way. She is a Cunard ship, something you are never allowed to forget, given that every deck is plastered with “historic” Cunard posters and displays. But in fact, “Carnival Corporation & plc,” the Miami-based company that owns many of the major cruise ships today, also ...
