My wife and our daughter did a crossing to New York in August 2012. She said that everything about this ship was fabulous and she is never wrong!! From the luxury coach to Southampton and back, our cruise around Britain & Ireland, it was all above the high expectations I had.
Booked this cruise as soon as we could as it was the Cunard 175th Anniversary celebrations in our home City of Liverpool were the 3 Queens would meet on the Mersey.
Embarkation at Southampton was a doddle; 10 minutes to register credit card, go through security via standard removal of trouser belt and straight on board to our cabin with luggage outside the door within the half hour.
