I'm a diehard Celebrity Cruise line fan, but friends had booked this cruise months ago, so we decided to join them. It's been great being with them, but the cruise itself has been awful. We will never sail with Cunard again and will be telling anyone who asks me to avoid them like the plague. I'm going back to Celebrity and will never sail with another company (have also sailed with HAL and ...
We have cruised on the Queen Elizabeth and Queen Mary pre-Covid. We have very good experiences in our 30+ days at sea on those cruises.
On this cruise the ship looked lovely and was very clean. Our balcony cabin was very nice and the cabin steward was good. The food at the Golden Lion Pub was excellent.
However, that's where the positive experiences ended. I was disappointed with the ...
The flight from Boston booked thru Cunard transfers to Vancouver Hotel Blu were perfect. (Two nights)
Cunard then transferred us to the ship terminal and help with luggage. Princess Grill Suite for 10 nights was everything we hoped for. Post trip excursion by Cunard to Vancouver and Grouise Mountain then drop off at airport was ideal.
We choose Cunard for the Britishness and we're not ...
We recently took the July 17, 2023 10 night Alaskan cruise on QUEEN ELIZABETH. Overall, it was a great trip with only a few shortcomings.
Check-in
As Platinum members with Cunard we were able to do priority check-in….but priority check-in doesn’t mean priority boarding. Yes, we whisked through check-in in a matter of minutes, but then we had to sit in a waiting area and wait to board. We sat ...

We departed Southampton and followed Norwegian Prima out of the port and into the English Channel. This seven night cruise was the third and final part of our "Three Cunard Queens" holiday and took us to the majestic fjords of southern Norway.
This ship is in great shape and the interior is opulent and elegant throughout. We noticed that exterior handrails were very weathered and required ...
An iconic route of Southampton to New York.
We had a princess grill suite.
Boarding was easy - we were able to walk past the big queue because we had a princess grill suite and pretty much get straight on the ship.
The room was comfortable. We were greeted with a bottle of sparkling wine!
The bed was so cosy and we slept so well every night. They have UK plugs. The hair dryer isn’t ...
This transatlantic crossing was the second cruise of the "Three Cunard Queens" package we had booked and we were really looking forward to travelling on the world's only operational ocean liner.
Departure was from the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal and was conducted efficiently and our luggage was delivered quite quickly. Sailing out of New York past the Statue of Liberty then under the Verrazzano ...
This was our first cruise with Cunard and while we had previously read some saying it's standards had dropped, we can only say that those previous standards must have been off the top of the chart as we have no complaints at all with regard to the comfort (both our room and the general areas of the ship), the attentiveness of staff, the food and dining options, the on board activities (especially ...
Eastbound transatlantic. Princess Grill
The embarkation at Brooklyn cruise terminal was pretty awful . We were stuck in a hot shed for an hour with one loo , one water dispenser , no information and not enough seats . (And that was for Grill guests). And our bage took an agonising and disgraceful 4 1/2 hrs to arrive . No Grill suite priority?
The ship itself lives up to expectation. The ...
