Sail Date: May 2010
Cabin: Atrium View

Having arrived at the new Cunard terminal at Southampton when I arrived home from the Autumn Colours cruise in October it was a very pleasant surprise to check in at the new terminal. No more standing in line, just a smiling hostess to hand us a coloured card bearing a letter, and a 'please have a seat and listen for your letter to be called'. In no time at all we had checked in, been welcomed aboard and found our bags ready and waiting outside our cabin.

This had been very much a last minute idea, to have a few days of QM2 luxury before flying off to Boston for our 'real' three week holiday in New England and Canada, so we had opted for an inside stateroom with atrium view on the basis we would be sailing at night and sightseeing ashore by day. We opened our curtains to find we had a birdseye view of the Grand Lobby and the beautiful lighted mural was right outside our window. These rooms are also slightly larger than the general inside ones.

We booked online through an American agency and were delighted to find they had supplied a plate of delicious chocolate dipped strawberries and $50 each onboard credit.

5109 Best of the inside staterooms with a window overlooking the Grand Lobby and atrium. Not huge, but hey who spends all day in the cabin.
