The cruise was going fine and we were celebrating my husbands 70th birthday. It all turned very sour when we both contracted Covid. I tested positive first and my husband 3 days later. It then became a very distressing experience. I was escorted to my isolation cabin, passing several other guests along the way. I was initially placed in an Ocean View cabin but eventually moved to a cabin with a ...

Terrible ending for Cunard cruise

In May we boarded the Queen Elizabeth for a cruise from Fort Lauderdale to San Francisco. Only after we embarked did we discover that there were active cases of Covid on board. Mask wearing was poor, social distancing weak and, worst of all there was no control of passenger and crew freely exploring each port of call. In sharp contrast to a cruise, on the same ship, which we took in October 2021 ...

A Cautionary Tale

Recently my wife and I took a 28-day cruise from Southampton to San Francisco. Covid-19 dogged the entire 9,615 nautical miles of the voyage. Our troubles began even before we boarded Queen Elizabeth. Cunard demanded a certified negative antigen test dated no more than 24 hours before boarding. That meant finding a provider open on a Sunday – which we did eventually at a cost of £70. Not once ...

We looked forward to this cruise as it marked my retirement and my wife’s birthday, we had had to save for this one and had handed over our hard earned cash with pleasure we loved being cosseted by Cunard’s attentive staff. This would be the 12th or so cruise and our second 28 night cruise with them. So we knew what to expect. Lovely. We joined the QM2 as scheduled following a Covid test each. ...

QM2 Completely Carnivalized

Carnival has now succeeded in transforming the QM2 into a typical Carnival Cruise Ship. First and most importantly the food in the Brittania Restaurant is not even edible. It's served either luke warm or cold. Remember the days when the food was cooked right in front of you? Forget it. The food sits in the kitchen. By the time it gets to your table it's cold. The restaurant staff is ...

Our fourth Cunard cruise twice on the Queen Mary 2 and twice on Queen Victoria, on this trip although the ship had been refurbished,and new carpets etc, however, this is where the novelty ends As soon as you embark , one feels this is a money grabbing machine , new carpets are fine, but the TV is so small , you cant see any writings displayed on screen, the beds are very soft and spongy , the ...

I went on Queen Victoria, Cunard Cruise Lines. I booked it on line, on a last minute web site. Got a great deal, then upgraded to an obstructed ocean view.Paid $400.00 more for the up grade and all we looked at was a life boat for 12 days! Don't waste your money on that upgrade! This should read window with NO VIEW! Shame on Cunard for charging $400.00 more for a room that was no better then a ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

I have been on over 75 cruises. Over 1.5 years of my life on ships cruising for the past 35 years. This one I paid the most for and was the worst in EVERY respect. Don't waste your time or money unless you are crossing the pond. I had the owners suite!! $30,000 so no joke! The top of the line or so I was led to believe. The staff was ok. They did what they had to do but never anything else. I ...
