Good Points: Children staff
Bad Points: Staff ignorant cabin not enough storage space dinning in kings court like a zoo food awful every where . Entertainment awful
General comments: My wife and I joined the ship with our son on the Queen Mary 2 for a summer retreat voyage m828b.Both my wife and I have been cruising for the last 20 years ,so as you can imagine we have a lot off experience off different cruise companies we have been with Crystal Princess Royal Viking Sun Norwegian Celebrity, Royal Caribbean P.O and other's We decided to take our son on a ship for his birthday so we thought we would try Cunard It was the worst ship I have ever been on from the moment we stepped on the ship no one to show you where our cabin was. Before the cruise I informed the ship my wife was gluten and lactose intolerant. For food she was served ice berg lettuce with plain olive oil and just mashed potatoes with chicken that's it . The night before that they saved her some chocolate ice cream she ate it thinking it might have been made form Soya but the following day she was ill and it was not sea sickness we was docked.As for myself I couldn't even think off going to kings court for lunch talk about a zoo is putting it mildly ,so we decided the dinning room I encounter the most ignorant waiter. I left with out eating . I think Cunnard should take a leaf out of Crystal and learn how to really run a ship. I feel that strongly about the poor staff food entertainment ect. I would like to write to a local newspaper to tell them what awful service they give call their selves a Liner they should be ashamed. So for several people have asked me and I have told the what I think off Cunnard and the Queen Mary 2 . I would not want any one to experience what both my wife and I have.

I got on... and after an hour of "loud white noise" in a windowless box... got off again. I will never go on the ship again.

I have just returned on the Queen Mary 2 from New York with my 18 year old daughter (I'm 46). We worried about the age of the other passengers and yes, they were a lot older. But other than on the first night on board when we encountered the most ignorant and rudest couple ever at our Britannia Restaurant table. Fortunately for us and our other diners this disgusting couple were moved after making a scene and were never seen again throughout the voyage! We had the most fantastic time. We were ...

We left Southampton on the transatlantic voyage in May 2008. We were so excited - celebrating a birthday and an anniversary, and looking forward to a wonderful holiday. We saved up and were thrilled to be Princess Grill Passengers - and were absolutely delighted with our stateroom on Deck 10.Our room was cleaned daily, with the bed turned down each evening which was a sweet touch.A lot of the entertainment was catered for the older passenger but we knew that before we went - we would recommend d ...

What a wonderful way to travel.Excepting the bad points mentioned I can honestly say this is one of my favorite ways to travel and Cunard do it so well. They have completely overcome any of the early problems they suffered (2004/2005) and service is quite exceptional.
I have traveled on the QE2 also and I would say that service is now equal to that. All in all excellent. I must confess to finding some of the theatre entertainment a little lame but there were always packed 'houses' so I guess ...

This is an experience you must try, its is worth the money.
On transatlantic crossings go for a cheaper inside cabin as you can't see anything but open sea. The cabins are cosy and well appointment, personally I found it luxurious.
Just relax and enjoy yourself, you just can't fail to melt into the sublime beauty of the ship.
I just could not fault it.

Don't miss the chance to travel on the most stunning liner afloat. Having been on a QE2 transatlantic crossing a few years ago, I was concerned that the QM2 would not meet the same standard but if anything it was even better. Don't waste your money on an expensive cabin, on a transatlantic crossing what's the use of a balcony and a window, all you can see is sea. Instead, opt for the cheapest cabin you can find and enjoy all the luxury and services that your fellow passengers are paying thousand ...

Queen Mary 2:
Throughout the public spaces of the ship the Maritime Quest exhibits tell the history of great Cunard liners of the past. Unfortunately, the biggest, most expensive passenger ship on earth does not yet live up to the reputation of its predecessors, which appears to me mostly a function of its size, relative youth, and corporate masters. Embarkation and disembarkation were extended, disorganized affairs with a remarkable absence of crew members. The staterooms are very well designe ...
