Clues are in the image make this so that even for a beginner like me can figure it out.
I have never been here, but Ålesund, Norway
The small ferry in the foreground gives it away.

Back in 2019 I went on two voyages. If you did not print luggage labels online (with their old version of online voyage information), Cunard would mail an information booklet with luggage labels. Do they still do this, or are you now required to print them yourself online? (my printer is printing a little faint)
Thanks.
I tried searching for the answer, but could not find it.

Yes,
MSC Meraviglia is scheduled into Brooklyn on those dates,
when M416 was scheduled to end and M417 start 2024-06-16
and M422 was scheduled to end and M423 start 2024-07-28
I am curious what will happen to M417 and M423.
They must be starting a day early.

Just to add to the above responses:
I fully agree with response #3 above.
I did this in August of 2019.
I was arriving to Southampton on QE, then leaving on QM2 four days later.
I was waiting for some notice to appear in the daily program about this,
but I should have gone to the Purser's desk earlier in the trip.
The cost was $65 per suitcase (which was billed on the first trip, you could use OBC).
I believe I received a form to fill out, along with special color luggage tags.
When disembarking, I was required to go to the area where the bags were,
just to verify my bags were in the group (which they were).
The next time I saw the bags was in my cabin when I boarded QM2 four days later.
I would definitely do this again.
BTW it was called transfer, not storage

I have an upcoming trip on the QM2 this summer.
Is there a place that I can verify "Do not upgrade" has been checked/ticked?
This is a US booking. I made it directly with Cunard, and it has been changed multiple times, directly through Cunard.
I can't find this mentioned on the my.cunard.com US site. Is it in a place that I am missing?
I guess the other option is to call Cunard again, and talk to a person.
Thanks

Screenshot of QM2 Arriving in NYC early 2022-09-23, doing the turnaround with Statue of Liberty in view.
Check out the StreamTime Live Youtube live webstream within 24 hours of arrival
and you can rewind to the arrival. A nice way to enjoy a morning cup of coffee on a morning when QM2 arrives.Thanks to StreamTime Live and the Waterfront Museum for the stream.

I'm pretty sure that Cunard will be taking their sparkling new bauble all around to show it off. It will be in NYC soon enough. Maybe they are waiting for a time of year with better / warmer weather.

Scroll back to 6:08 today (2022-03-08 within 12 hours) to see QM2 passing under VZ bridge.

I like also those two NY webcams
https://www.nyharborwebcam.com
Good views of down by the bridge
Follow and zooms. Also gets views of ships at Bayonne terminal.
And
Further up the Hudson River
Good views of ships coming and going to the Manhattan terminal (including the little Queens)
The only drawback is you have to watch live, you can't scroll back in time.
Also have that Halifax feed
Here are a couple more

Queen Mary 2 is due back in New York tomorrow morning (2022-03-08)
I wanted to share a Youtube live camera that I found for those in this community.
Last time QM2 was here, the camera zoomed in and followed her.
This also has the big advantage that you can scroll back in time about 12 hours,
so you don't have to be up very early to watch live.
Also available on Youtube are the three Isle of Wight webcams that many are probably already
aware of:
Also with the ability to scroll back in time about 12 hours

Typo in title, and I don't know how to fix it.

I could not find Sweet-N-Low on board (or any "pink" off brands). There is another kind of sugar free sweetener available. I was glad I packed a handful of Sweet-N-Low packets. They weigh almost nothing.
Where in the world ?
in Cunard Line

You have revealed too much. I haven't traveled to that many locations, but the geolocating is fun.
I will wait for others to guess.
