To be able to go on a new Cunard ship, only a month after its maiden voyage, was a very exciting experience. Queen Elizabeth was everything one expects from Cunard and more ..... having experienced the QE2 and a trans-Atlantic voyage on the QM2, could Cunard offer better? My answer is without any shadow of a doubt, an outstanding "YES".

The experience was somewhat short and sweet - 5 nights with a two-day stay in Amsterdam, a day in Zeebrugge and one in Cherbourg - but interesting and exciting at the same time.

Parking in Southampton arranged by CPS was very efficient and a good start - no waiting, no problems. Embarkation was quick and efficient followed by lunch on board. On arrival at our balcony stateroom, our luggage had already been delivered. Leaving and arriving at ports in darkness is not very picturesque but leaving Southampton was somewhat enhanced by the city's lights.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin BC

6157 - opposite entrance to lifts and stairs - aft on starboard side - Staircase C - but not noisy. Cabin was adequate in size with an adequately sized balcony - small table and two comfortable chairs. Kenneth, the steward went about his work quietly and unobstrusively but he was very helpful when approached. Bed was very comfortable - linen, towels were kept extremely clean.

Shower, wash-room, toilet was adequate in size.
