Congratulations on your winning bid and thank you for letting us know your outcome!

I, also, would like to hear about everyone's overall view of the WC.

To clarify, when we get to our cabin and check our table allocation, we go down to check our table allocation and see where it is located and see if we can change to a diff table if it is not suitable. But, if that cannot happen we either just sit at the assigned table or go to another restaurant. We don't interact with the maitre de other than that and have never offered incentive.

What great photos! Thank you for sharing! It all looks so magical and memorable!

Thank you for the reminder deck chair and it is good advice! This is exactly what we do and learned that from reading the Cunard board for years before our first cruise a long time ago. We still do that each cruise.

The last cruise I took out the ones that were there and asked the cabin steward if I could get some wire hangers. They returned with a big handful! 🙂 which was good since I brought so much ....lol

Lissie, looks like you have a few cruises coming up with the next one next week on HAL (acc to your signature). How exciting!

I hope it works out for you and they do offer the segment you need.

Thank you for the compliment! 🙂

That is good to hear they have true table for two without the "neighbors". I know we are in a minority but when we go to a meal, we are pretty quick eating, and don't chat much except with each other because I can really talk sometimes and the food would get cold and I would lose track of the time ....lol). We do enjoy the ambiance, etc but meals are not usually the place we choose to chat with others. That being said, each meal is a new experience and sometimes we adjust our thinking.

How very sad.

TowandaUK....love the name. Reminds me of the movie Fried Green Tomatoes and Kathy Bates yelling Towanda! lol

Have a great cruise experience!

Thanks John. I thought I would give it a try but knowing how they differentiate between the regions, I figured I would not be able to see my cruise history or loyalty.

Thanks sfred!

This is what I see after the first page which you have to select marketing options. Then on the next page there are the 4 choices with LOYALTY being one of them. When I click on that below is what I see. It says set up loyalty to which I tried and it takes to your preferences but nothing about loyalty or cruise history comes up. It says if you can't see, then you may not be logged in but at the upper right corner you can see I am logged in. Confused.

I found it but when I went to the marketing page (loyalty) I had to enter preferences again but then none of my cruise history or loyalty tier came up.

So to start your 24 hours day, how does it start? You login at a time and it start at that moment and lasts for 24 hours? Or do you have to select which days ahead of time?

We are on 30 Oct out of Barcelona. I hope you have a good cruise and look forward to reading your blog.

Southampton is a nice place to walk around and see things. We went to the Titanic Museum years ago, but would love to walk around and explore more. I would also consider a Cunard excursion if any are offered because I can see how that would make things easier.

I am sorry about your frustrations but completely understand. So many things have changed and make life so challenging these days. I hope things get better for you.

You guys are making me hungry! 🙂

I print mine out then use the trusty old laminator (after the folding process, such a process), then punch a hole and use a cable tie. I know, I know, it is so old school, but it gets my creative juices flowing for the upcoming cruise! I do like the look of the examples shown on this thread though.

I like reading about your cruises and you have lots of helpful information. Where are you going in October on QE?

We had one for our 2019 cruise and it had the luggage labels. John, did yours (2023) have the luggage labels?
