Lovely, but not as special as I expected

Perhaps it is me, but as a seasoned cruiser who has been with many cruise lines, including the Carnival group, I had never been with Cunard. I just expected more than average, but I have had better service and better food on some other ships. We did a transatlantic 7 day crossing from NYC to Southampton with a sheltered balcony cabin on Deck 5. The bed was fabulous, the best I have had on a ...

Attentive waitstaff and room steward - disappointing Princess Grill room

My husband and I wanted to get away and relax after a very busy and medically challenging year. He had never been on Cunard before but I had and highly recommended it. We wanted to leave from NYC, unpack once, enjoy the crossing, the fjords of Norway, our one day in France and the return trip to NYC. To make this trip even more special, we selected a room on the Princess Grill level, a room we ...

Sailing the QM2 was a bucket list dream. Unfortunately it wasn’t a dreamy experience. Firstly, embarkation was time consuming but easy. Our cabin was in remarkably good shape - no complaints there except the bathroom was dingy and needs an overhaul. Our cabin attendant though needs more training; we had a rattling noise start during our first night. We spoke to him about it the next day ...

NCL PR1MA, form over function

NCL's PR1MA: We recently cruised on NCL's newest ship, the PR1MA. An 11 day cruise out of Manhattan to Reykjavik Iceland. 1st off, IMO destinations are more important than the ship, Iceland was a bucket list destination it did not disappoint: As negative as some parts of my frank and honest analysis may sound, It was a terrific cruise. Overall impression of the PR1MA is NCL ...

We choose this cruise to experience the new NCL Prima. This ship is different from any of NCL's other ships. The cabins are large and nicely appointed. All entertainment venues are much too small. Reservations are required for the production shows. This was a 12 day cruise and they only had one production show....this is unacceptable. All the other entertainment venues are so ...

Great Itinerary, Epic not so great.

We chose this cruise ( our first transatlantic) because of the itinerary. Interesting ports of call and the longest batch of sea days was four in a row, compared with some others of up to nine in a row. The itinerary was great, Bermuda, Ponta Delgada, Madeira, Motril, Ibiza and Palma before arriving Barcelona. The call at Cadiz was cancelled due to strong winds, which was a pity, but safety ...

Poor Deck Plan for Entertainment- Reduced Port Time

We had booked the TA from New York to Civitavecchia for both 2020 and 2021. Of course, COVID interrupted those plans, so we were finally able to cruise in 2023. The crew, entertainment and food all delivered as did the itinerary. However, the design of the ship left a lot to be desired. While the Boardwalk and Dining Venues were terrific, the Atrium was overused every day for live music, games ...

Booked a transatlantic fm NYC to Rome. The ship (Breakaway) is in need to major cleaning and updating. Food in complimentary restaurants, while plentiful, is bland and not usually very hot. Specialty restaurants a little better, but meals can take up to 3 hrs to complete. Even specialty menus are limited and not enticing. Onboard entertainment mediocre, don’t expect broadway quality talent. ...

TRANSATLANTIC MED - A Cruise in Two Parts

This was my second time on the Gem. Despite the ship's fanbase, I'm still on the fence about it's allure. The floorplan is not always user friendly, and advances to the industry since its launch seem clumsily and sometimes illogically squeezed into the deckplans. Still, it has its charms, mostly found in its initmacy. Cabins on deck 4 are subject to being the exit / entrance level for some ...

I think this was my last Cunard voyage.

I chose this Crossing because it was Cunard's annual Crossing with the British National Orchestra. At Southampton, I stayed on the ship and went to northern Norway and back for another 13 days on the ship. So, I was on board the QM2 for 20 days as a solo traveler. I was in a different stateroom for the Norway portion of my journey. This Crossing with the orchestra was memorable, and I am glad ...
