Sadly this cruise was totally miss-sold as a Big Band Cruise, as the only sign of the theme was on the Saturday Night with a Big Band Ball in the Queens room (The theatre orchestra joined up with the Queens Room orchestra) Most of your longer cruises have this same Big Band Ball on one the evenings, so this was nothing out of the ordinary, we would have expected far more on what was advertised as a themed cruise.
On the other two nights there was nothing extra in the way of Big Band music or theme.
We feel the cruise was miss-sold to us as a special Big Band themed cruise, and was actually no different to any other Cunard sailing.

Great location on deck 1. Large square cabin. Wardrobe door fixings broken so doors banged a lot in rough seas. TV quality diabolical.

We caught the free shuttle to Blankenberg and had a walk around. Seaside resorts in Winter cant be expected to be great
