Moreover the staff at the TA do vaguely know something about Cunard. The staff I speak to at Cunard often don’t. For instance, when I ring Cunard to arrange blankets, not duvets, in our cabin, the invariably polite person at Cunard tends to say it has to be arranged on board, until I point out it doesn’t, because it has been arranged in advance on all previous voyages. Then they miraculously discover they can do it. The TA never does that sort of thing.
