MSC schedule shows a great number of mostly Sunday sailings from Brooklyn in 2024 as well as the
Manhattan piers busy with many other ships such as the new Carnival Venizia .
There is no Safe Buffer Time when not on a ship purchased tour.
Just consider your possible options like next port & transportation in case something goes wrong.
Even the best tour operators can have a breakdown or delay.
You are crossing the Gulf Stream each way.
Could have perfect weather yet ship motion or no motion at all .
Concerned just take your motion precautions just in case .
Purchase your Spa Pass , make your reservations for the Verandah and the pop-up Speciality dining
in Kings Court. Check out your Dining Room table location.
The phone # that you call for a Sales appt is the Purser.
Sales Office was always busy when I walked by so I followed procedure for appointments.
I recall there use to be Forms in a rack by the Sales Office in the past ?
I confirmed with Cunard today that FCD”s are indeed available onboard ☹️
Called the phone # (Purser) listed to make an appointment with the Future Cruise desk , was told FCD no longer available. Also no mention of FCD in daily activities or forms outside of Future Cruise desk , so I did not go farther.
3 times around Deck 7 on the QM2 = 1.1 mile.
It is a bit of a race course at times of the day and weather.
Most all walk counter-clockwise but there are always those that fight the flow.
Early December , most of May are always priced lower early on .
Best time to book ? Is when you see a promo that you like then monitor your
sailing up until Final Payment.
