On the morning show (OH insists on watching it)Yo Yo announced on QM2 in June that you could book a future cuise, get OBC and free parking etc and transfer it to another cruise already published or not to any of the 4 ships and take your onboard benefits with you. Does not have to be of higher value. This is what we did.

Having spent 40 nights on QM2 recently I did not see any demoralised crew only extremely hard working and polite.

U r correct that was the policy in the past but the advent of fast good seaboats such as the Nelson led to pilot boats operating out of nearby ports in London case Harwich and Ramsgate. Liverpool pilot ships used to patrol at the Bar LV before changing to fast launches. .

Many years ago 70`s or so London pilots boarded from large pilot ships at the Sunk 12 miles off Harwich or Dungeness if approaching from the west small tenders were used. Something similar still occurs at the sea pilot station for Hamburg using a large catamaran mothership.

There was a vague suggestion some time ago that dredging was needed for QM2.

Can only speak of our 2 QM2 cruises from Southampton Jan &June boarding was quick 30/40 minutes from car drop off 2 cabin. As diamond we did have priority boarding. Saw the lines in Hamburg first call 12th June was worse than 22nd. I not certain that Cunard have total responsibility 4 port ops.

QM2 will not be visiting Flam on Saturday 18th because of environmental issues. Instead will be in Stavanger. Other ports not affected.
