Can I still change the old rounded 1 pound coin? If yes where in London.

From previous cruise does anyone know up to what time Kings Court is opened for lunch on embarkation day.

Thank you for all your help. Contactless credit/debit card is no go as there will be foreign charge. In that case we need to go the Waterloo tube station to buy the Oyster Card and then go back to the Waterloo train station to get a black cab.

Can anybody confirm if it is possible to buy Oyster card at Waterloo train station? If yes, is there a ticket machine (cash or credit card or both) or have to go to the train ticket counter. Also is it possible to set up a Young Oyster Card discount at the train ticket counter.

Can we buy the Oyster card at the Waterloo train station? If yes, where? At the train ticket counter or any ticket machine that sell Oyster card? or we need to go to Waterloo tube station? Also I need to set up a Young Visitor Oyster Discount, can it be done at the train ticket counter,

Should I expect an extra £1 per luggage?

Is it easy to get a black cab from Waterloo train Station to go to Crowne Plaza King Cross? Will 2 mid luggages fit?

Thank you sddsddean. Already pre book the train at 9.30 departure to Waterloo train station. Assuming I walk off by 7.15 am there should not have a long queue for taxi, we should be at the Southampton train by 8.00 am or before. Would you know if it is possible to buy Oysters card at Southampton train station.

I'm coming on a Queen Mary 2 - do they usually stop in the same area in the port?
