  1. Are you looking at the details for your booking within "My Cunard" aka "Manage my booking"? There is a tab there for "Shore experiences". Then clicking "Discover more" should give you a list of the individual ports on your cruise. Clicking each individual port should show you the shore excursions Cunard is offering for that port. If you get the message "Please bear with us while we add the final touches to your shore experiences." for any particular port, that means Cunard has not yet determined what shore excursions they will be offering for that port. Hope this helps.
  2. I saw this mentioned on another board. There are two Cunard queens at Trieste today. Queen Victoria is at the cruise terminal and Queen Anne is under construction at Fincantieri not far away. Apparently Queen Anne is the ship designated as "A" in this capture from marinetraffic.
  3. QV is in Trieste today (an itinerary change from the originally scheduled Venice). Here is a capture from another of the Skyline Webcams found at "www.skylinewebcams.com/en/webcam/italia/friuli-venezia-giulia/trieste/lanterna.html".
  4. I've found I have to answer "yes" to one of the test qualification questions to qualify for no-cost testing in order to get the screenshots @frankp01 provided which include "Rapid test" without provider visit. Checking three major US cities, I happened to find one site offering such tests in New York City, one in Chicago and none in Los Angeles.
  5. Another day, another port in Croatia for QV. Today QV is in Hvar. Here are a couple captures showing QV arriving at Hvar in the pre-dawn light and about half an hour later shortly after dawn. These images were captured from the "Hvar, Croatia LIVE 24/7 WebCam" found on YouTube at "www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzwkDLVo3w8". I am posting these images with the kind permission of Hvar Live.
  6. As I mentioned in post #5 above, the expected format for a US phone number in the US version of My Cunard does not include the "1" prefix or any spaces or other special characters. US phone numbers never start with a "0". In the US, we have a variety of different conventions for listing phone numbers. Here are some of the most popular alternatives for the example phone number I used in my reply above. 321-555-9876 (321) 555-9876 1-321-555-9876 1 (321) 555-9876 What My Cunard is expecting for this example phone number is simply 3215559876. (Just as a footnote, I have used "555" for the middle "central office" or "exchange" portion of the example US phone number as a convention to avoid inadvertently mentioning someone's real phone number. No individual's phone number in the US will ever have "555" for that portion of the number. You may have noticed when a movie or television show mentions or displays a US phone number, they will usually make it a "555" number for that reason.)
  7. Very good. I'll add the cruise-by destination of Land's End, England to our list of Cunard ports we've seen on this thread.
  8. QV is in Dubrovnik today. This is a capture from the Port of Gruž webcam found on the Just Dubrovnik website at "justdubrovnik.com/dubrovnik-live-web-camera-port-of-gruz-video-stream/". QV isn't entirely within frame in this view. But since this is the only call to Dubrovnik by a Cunard ship until 2024, I'll go ahead and post this image with the kind permission of Just Dubrovnik.
  9. Exactly right. That's a photo of the Titanic model on Griffin's Pond in the Halifax Public Gardens.
  10. For a change this is one of my own photos, not a webcam capture. It's a different view of a port we've already seen. This isn't quite a Cunard ship and it isn't quite showing the port area itself but I think this scene will be recognizable.
  11. Now that we are two pages further along this thread since I last posted the port lists, this may be a good time to post the updated lists. By my count we have now seen 584 different Cunard ports/cruise-bys on this thread. There are still plenty of opportunities to post photos you have of Cunard ports/cruise-bys we haven't seen yet. Also feel free to post photos showing different perspectives on any of the ports we have already seen. Where in the World 2022-09-10.txt Cunard ports not seen yet 2022-09-10.txt
  12. Yes, that is San Francisco. That was a cloudy departure for QE from San Francisco this past July. Here is the full image capture showing the source as the Mersea Restaurant webcam.
  13. Here's another foggy scene to identify. This is a port we've seen before. It's an image captured from a webcam where I have cropped out the webcam banners that name the location.
  14. We have seen Tobermory once before (in post #2735). But since @Lanky Lad's photo looks like it might be from a cruise-by, I'll be glad to count it as "Isle of Mull, Scotland" which is listed as a cruise-by call we haven't seen yet. Kudos to @sogne for identifying a lifeboat I didn't even realize was in the photo!
  15. OK, I'll go ahead and identify this one now. Once again it's a companion to an earlier photo from @sfred showing this port from on high. This time it's the companion to post #166. This photo shows QE arriving at Juneau, Alaska. The other cruise ship in the photo is Coral Princess because of the gas turbines visible on the funnel. I believe Island Princess had those removed prior to this photo from 2019. I'm also able to find an itinerary for Coral Princess that places her in Juneau on the same date we know @sfred was there from previous posts.
  16. I think this one is Nagasaki, Japan. A good complement to your previous view of the city from on high in post #164.
  17. That's correct. My photo was taken from onboard QM2 while docked at the QEII terminal. That was November 8, 2010. The Cunard ship at the far left is QE. I remember discussing the significance of that date earlier on this thread. It was the first time QE and QM2 were together in the same port. What I didn't recall is that I had posted that exact same photo earlier on post #725 while we were discussing that very topic! Now I'll hazard a guess that @Host Hattie's photo was also taken at the QEII terminal from onboard a Cunard ship whose name just might happen to bear a striking resemblance to the name of that terminal.
  18. Similar changes are being made to the QM2 2023 world cruise as well. Here's what I am seeing being reported for QM2. Calls to Colombo on 8 Feb, Nha Trang on 18 Feb, Chan May on 20 Feb, Hong Kong on 22-23 Feb and Bitung on 27 Feb have been canceled. The call to Phu My is being moved from 16 Feb to 21 Feb. Calls are being added to Penang on 11 Feb, Bangkok on 17-18 Feb, an additional call to Singapore on 23 Feb and Bali on 26 Feb.
  19. Here's what I am seeing for the changes to the 2023 QV world cruise. The calls to Manila on 14 March, Hong Kong on 16-17 March, Nha Trang on 19 March and Colombo on 28 March are being canceled. The call to Langkawi is being moved from 25 March to 20 March. Calls are being added to Bali on 12 March, Jakarta on 14 March, Kuala Lumpur (Port Kelang) on 17 March, Penang on 19 March and Abu Dhabi on 1 April.
  20. QM2 is in Skjolden, Norway today. She is there as a replacement for the originally scheduled call at Flaam. Since this is the first time QM2 has called at Skjolden, I think it's worth posting this webcam view found on the Skjolden Tourist Information site at "skjolden.com/en/webkamera/".
  21. The Cunard dress code was changed prior to the restart of operations last summer to no longer require jackets for gentlemen on the Smart Attire evenings. As mentioned in reply #134 above, the dress code as stated in the daily programmes once on board the ships is as follows. "Gala Evening. Dinner jacket, tuxedo, or dark suit with regular tie or bow tie for gentlemen. Evening or cocktail dress, smart trouser suit, or formal separates for ladies. Smart Attire. Gentlemen, every night we request you wear trousers with a collared shirt; jacket and tie are optional. Ladies, blouses and skirts or stylish trousers and dresses are welcome."
  22. Almost. By photo was taken onboard a somewhat larger vessel that was alongside at the time. Not looking for the name of the vessel but where she was alongside.
  23. My photo does indeed show Southampton with a view of the Western Docks. Hythe Ferry is a good guess for where my photo was taken but that's not quite it.
  24. Here's a photo of mine I'll share showing a similar but not quite so foggy day. I believe mine may have been taken from the same location as @Host Hattie's but with a wider angle of view and a different Cunard ship at the far left. I'll offer this as a hint to those who might be able to recognize this view of mine. For the date of @Host Hattie's photo, it's showing QM2 prior to the 2016 remastering, so I think we can date it to no later than May 2016. I'll need to do some more detective work to see if I can narrow that date down any further.
