San Francisco to Fort Lauderdale via Panama Canal: Beautiful Ship, but Surprisingly Low Standards

Review for a Panama Canal & Central America Cruise on Queen Elizabeth

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

I chose this voyage because I wanted to go through the Panama Canal, and also sail on the Queen Elizabeth for the first time. I am a solo traveler. I had already sailed on the Queen Victoria once, and the Queen Mary 2 three times. I have been fascinated by ocean liners since I was ten years old, and this is why I am drawn to Cunard ships. Cunard has always taken pride in carrying on the ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

We had been contemplating the idea of an Alaska cruise and when family friends invited us along on their Cunard Queen Elizabeth trip we were in (anything to escape the heat of TX in July & August). The Cunard website leaves much to be desired in terms of ease of navigation but we managed. Embarkation was smooth and hassle-free...we actually arrived about 1.5 hours earlier than our stated time at ...

Lovely Ship, Average Food and Entertainment

Queen Elizabeth is a lovely, well-maintained ship with a nod to the Art Deco style reminiscent of the great ocean liners of the 30's and 40's. Since food and dining options are a major consideration for us on a cruise, my comments will mainly be about the dining experience. BRITANNIA DINING ROOM - The food in the main dining room was average; similar to the type of food you would expect to ...

Outstanding Vacation on QE

QE was a beautiful ship; we really enjoyed the decor and accessibility of the ship. Although the sailing was booked full, it rarely felt there were too many people (i.e. breakfast in the Lido is a bit crazy). This ship is definitely for mature types since the crowd and actively level is more subdued than other lines. You can't say that about the ballroom! The dance floor was packed, and ...

Terrible Service & Very Boring

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 ...

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 ...

Main Dining Room Not Up To Prior Standards

We chose this cruise because we had sailed on Cunard twice (before Covid) for a total of 29 nights and the Main Dining Room (MDR) at dinner was almost always exceptional and the two times it was not, it was made right by ordering something else, so we had zero complaints. We tried Azamara last year and the MDR dinners were awful, so we were gun shy of trying another different cruise line ...
