I am crossing the Atlantic on the Queen Mary 2 Aug 9th, and am wondering if anyone has some tips on solo cruising with Cunard? One of my main reasons for going to Europe on a cruise was a need to relax and unwind. I'd be happy to avoid crowds if I can.

Also, while it would be nice to spend time with other people, I've traveled on my own quite a bit and am happy with my own company (I'm a very youthful 50 something lady). I signed up with the roll call for my sailing, and have to say I haven't found the people there even slightly friendly (if they are reading over my shoulder from the other forum, I don't mind if they know what I think!). Thanks in advance for any info.

Hi, I'm Pat.

My transatlantic crossing on the QM2 will be my second time sailing on a cruise ship. The first time I was working as wardrobe supervisor for the theater productions on the Norwegian Pearl (I suppose you could say I've been on multiple Caribbean cruises during that contract on a ship). I'm looking forward to being a passenger this time and traveling solo. I'd love to hear from any other solo travellers, and anyone with tips about cruising solo on this ship.
