MCC retired

Gave the OP a break . Only joined CC in February and just discovering the wealth of cruise info on these boards.

Self help disembarking @ Brooklyn requires 1 hand free on the escalator (enforced) or you have to use the elevator which may crowded.

On a rainey day in Halifax , the QM2 had umbrellas available for all at the gangway.

You really can't become a TA just for yourself. You would have to become a independent contractor for an agency which will require fees and training ,to be able to book yourself and others. Production is the name of the game. Booking just yourself you will not last long. Just find a TA that will rebate some comm. to you for giving them your business.

Yes !

That is the photo of the QM2 Thermal Pool. What ships have a larger one ?

Small? It is the largest Thermal Pool on any ship that I have ever sailed ore inspected?

Another case where a TA could have taken care of your cancelation without you hanging on a phone call to get a Rep..

The newest midsize ship ( becoming rare) within our budget would be our preference.

For US Bookings : Most always a Good TA can give you OBC's , Amenities , lower Deposits and Group Rates unavailable to those booking Direct. Why some people don't bother to compare before booking Direct is beyond me?

No OBC or other amenities on this sale, just real good discounted cruise rates on all categories. Counting on our OBC’s from Group Rste , TA.Shareholder and Military benefits .

On the day of the massage the thermal pool is free otherwise you can book a Spa Pass for specific number of days. Large pool with hot tub and other facilities . Postings indicate Spa Pass price varies sailing to sailing.

When I was a TA booking only cruises , I would have flipped head over heels if someone offered to transfer their World Cruise booking to me . Could thank them with lots of OBC/Amenities . If you don't at least inquire about what the TA can offer on any Cunard booking , you are cheating yourself.

For us , the Transatlantic aboard the QM2 is the Destination. Booked on the 8/23/24 Crossing NYC to Southampton , then jumping aboard a plane back home to Tampa. Crazy huh?
