Explore this amazing ship! There are historic photos and fascinating information panels about Cunard, the ships, sailing history and the people behind the scenes

Enjoy! Enjoy!

Don't. 20 year old ship obviously has reliability issues. Glad it didn't break on sea.

It is a “ bit stuffy”. I am referring to the fellow passengers.

Be healthy. Accesibility is not their strong suit.

Take it in as a museum cruise. Explore the artwork and enjoy riding the small but elegant elevators. Crowd is spread out so never felt congested. Almost no kids.

The ship is HUGE! Realize that you have many dining options - if you don't want to sit to be served formally, the buffet offers excellent choices. Be cautions of the movies offered - the one we had for the last day was really depressing, had hoped for something uplifting or a nature film (which we thought "whale" was.

Prepare for the formal nights. Tuxedo and gowns are required. This cruise is far more mahogany and brass versus chrome and glass.

Seriously think about not going on this ship. It’s old and shabby !

She is the only liner and sails perfectly through choppy seas

Wait until it is refurbished in dry dock, and go in the summer.

Be polite with your fellows guests

Choose the open dining unless you really like to be confined to one hour and one table.

Though not the size of a new mega ship, it is a large ocean liner. Find where the ship layouts are posted on the walls and carry your pocket map (provided in your room) until you figure it out.There is a lot of things to do and places to chill out as well. It is not a party ship but there is tons of opportunities to dance, chill with nice music and family/friends, or chill out.

Book the planetarium in advance. You can do it on the app or via the concierge. The spaces go quickly but Cunard don’t tell anyone. Apparently it’s really good. We’ll do it next time.

Make a change if you can? We enjoy premium cruise lines geared toward adults that are quieter and more sedate. Holland America is our absolute favorite line, and we thought we’d love Cunard. We couldn’t have been more wrong. Cunard seems to rest on the laurels of its brand, while actually offering a product inferior to its competitors in the premium line segment. We wouldn’t waste our money with Cunard.

She’s a fabulous ocean liner not a party cruise ship

A lot of International travelers who seem to be rude

Don’t get the basic drink package-it doesn’t include bottled water. Room service was outstanding-they bright a pitcher of water whenever asked and had the best dessert on he ship-apple pie. There was no extra charge for room service, but we always tipped the waiter.
