We travelled on the QM2 on M224 from New York to Southampton leaving New York on the 2nd October. Now the specifics:
1. This was our first cruise other than three days on the Nile and four days on a small ship from Helsinki to Leningrad (yes Leningrad) so we did not know what to expect. In the event the embarkation and disembarkation process was very easy and very smooth and it was a wonderful experience that we will not forget.
2. Our cabin an A1 deluxe balcony on deck 11 was excellent the only down side was apart from the first two days we were not able to sit on the balcony because of the weather conditions but our steward - Bert from the Philippines - was brilliant, he could not have done more for us. The cabin had one negative point and that was the location of the 13A UK electrical sockets. Because they were so close to the desk belw certain plugs could not be used. In order to charge my mobile phone I had to use the 110V US sockets and an adapter.
11115 - Excellent location good size and facilities but poor location of UK sockets (see above).
